The College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics
Marine Science Consortium
College majors may be interested in the programs available through the Marine Science Consortium. The Marine Science Consortium was established in 1968 for the purpose of promoting teaching and research in the marine sciences. Participating institutions include IUP and thirteen other colleges and universities. Although no separate major in the Marine Sciences exists, elective courses may be taken and credited toward undergraduate curricula in Biology, Geology, Geography, and Earth Science. The Marine Science Consortium offers five three-week sessions during the summer at the NASA -Wallops Island Station, Virginia. Normally, several research cruises are offered each summer.
Students must register for credit and pay credit fees to a participating institution. Room and board fees are paid to the consortium. Applications for all summer sessions must be submitted to the institutional director by April 1. Students must be accepted by the consortium before registering at a participating institution. See section on Marine Science Consortium for a listing of courses. For brochure, summer bulletin, and application forms, contact Dr. Ray L. Winstead, Biology, or Dr. Darlene S. Richardson, Geoscience, who are the IUP directors and assist students in program planning.
