Anchored at the Duke Marine Lab on Pivers Island, the Marine Science and Conservation BS immerses students in coastal ecology, ocean engineering, and marine-policy design. Freshmen deploy autonomous gliders tracking plankton blooms; seniors negotiate mock high-seas treaties. Electives range from coral-genomics to blue-economy finance, and field intensives take cohorts from Caribbean reefs to Arctic fjords.
