Field Investigations in Oceanography
Ocean 220 - Spring Quarter


Ocean 220 Details

This class is an experiential course in which you will practice the scientific method from A-Z. During spring break, we will convene in the San Juans to plan our research. Then we will cruise aboard one of the UW's research ships for 1-3 days collecting data. After this, you will finish up post-cruise lab work, interpret your findings, and write a research paper focussing on your efforts. This class has been called 'the most work I ever loved to do' by one of last year's students.

You can learn more about the research conducted by the class by reading these general project descriptions.

There is also an honors section to this course.

Email Michelle Townsend (mtown@ocean.washington.edu) if you have questions about enrolling in this course, or if you wish to make substitutions in the pre-reqs. The pre-req is ocean 210.

This course is a requirement for oceanography majors and is strongly advised for all students studying geology, fisheries, oceanography, art, environmental biology and civil engineering.


The class meets each Tuesday & Thursday,
1:30-2:50 in 425 OSB
