Unit Description

This unit is aimed at providing professional competence in the process of sound scientific investigation and its application to solving problems in marine biological science to ensure that appropriate data are available for management of marine ecosystems.

Candidates will be required to show a greater depth and breadth of knowledge and understanding of the unit material than that required of an undergraduate student.
