Spring Term
Imagine a 15-credit course where you eat, breathe and sleep marine biology for ten weeks! Each spring, marine biology students take up residence at Hatfield for OSU's 15-credit course in marine biology (BI 450). Students divide their time between lectures, field study along the coast, and in our wet labs. Students learn to observe, identify, and collect seaweed and invertebrates, trawl for fish aboard the R/V Elakha, and muck through the mudflats and estuaries.
