The BS in Aquatic & Fishery Sciences
This degree is a broad-based science degree with the flexibility for students to pursue their individual interests in aquatic & fishery sciences by completing upper-division electives, internships, undergraduate research and an individually designed capstone project of their choosing. We feel our department provides a curriculum that is both foundationally strong and flexible enough for students to actively pursue their individual interests, as they develop.
