Cochran Marine Aquaculture Center, have research personnel that work closely
with faculty in the academic divisions and research infrastructure that is
available to support student training. The Division of Marine Science is based
at the NASA’s John C. Stennis Space Center. Stennis Space Center is a “federal city” that boasts the
world’s largest concentration of oceanographers and hydrographers. Marine Science
faculty benefit from close working relationships with a number of on-site
federal agencies, including the Naval Research Laboratory, the Naval
Oceanographic Office, the Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command, the USGS,
and NOAA including its National Data Buoy Center and the National Centers for
Environmental Information.
Marine
Science graduate and undergraduate programs extend across traditional marine
science emphasis areas in biological, physical, chemical, and geological
oceanography, as well as hydrographic science and undergraduate ocean
engineering. Marine Science faculty and
graduate programs are based at Stennis Space Center, where the M.S. and Ph.D.
degrees in Marine Science and the M.S. degree in Hydrographic Science are
delivered. SOSE also offers undergraduate B.S. degree programs in Marine
Science and Ocean Engineering which are delivered at the USM Gulf Coast Campus
in Long Beach, MS as well as at USM’s main campus in Hattiesburg, MS. The Long
Beach campus is near the Port of Gulfport, which is the home port for USM’s R/V
Point Sur. The Port of Gulfport also features the Marine Research Center, which
has a state-of-the-art fabrication lab, testing tank, and laboratory space.
Gulfport is also the site of the Roger F. Wicker Center for Ocean Enterprise
and the home port of a new 199-ft UNOLS Regional Class Research Vessel (R/V
Gilbert R. Mason).
