Sustainability is the key to the future of the aquaculture industry. Designed with industry needs in mind, gain knowledge and skills to create innovative processes that provide sustainable environmental, economic, and community benefits to, and from, the aquaculture industry. The Bachelor of Marine and Antarctic Science is a distinctive, interdisciplinary degree that will prepare you to understand and address some of the most pressing challenges facing our oceans and polar regions. It is the only degree of its kind in Australia with a combined focus on both temperate marine systems and the Antarctic and Southern Ocean, positioning you at the forefront of globally significant environmental science. Delivered through the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies (IMAS) in Hobart, the course brings together expertise from across natural and social sciences, enabling you to build a comprehensive understanding of marine environments. You will develop the ability to integrate knowledge across disciplines, which is a critical skill for tackling complex, real-world problems. A defining feature of the degree is its strong emphasis on experiential learning. Throughout the course, you will engage in hands-on laboratory and field-based activities, including vessel-based learning in Tasmania’s globally recognised marine environment. Work-integrated learning is embedded through opportunities such as the Practicum in the Marine Environment, where you gain direct industry experience. You will also undertake an intensive Marine Research Project that develops your independent research skills. The course has been designed in close consultation with Antarctic and Southern Ocean scientists, government and governance practitioners, and representatives from the aquaculture and fisheries sectors. This collaboration ensures the curriculum reflects current industry needs, emerging research priorities, and the skills required by employers across marine, Antarctic, and environmental fields. With majors spanning biological, physical, and social sciences, including marine and Antarctic governance, marine biology, oceans, ice and climate, sustainable aquaculture, and sustainable fisheries, you can tailor your studies to match your interests and career goals. At the same time, all students build strong core capabilities in data analysis and scientific communication.
