Master of Science in Earth Sciences - Geochemical System Specializations

The demand for skilled geoscientists is expected to grow rapidly in coming years. This degree allows you to specialize in ocean mapping and will prepare you to meet the public and private sector demand for knowledgeable and analytical professionals with strong scientific communication skills.Ocean mappers are modern-day explorers, mastering not only the elements of mapping the seabed, but also becoming adept at such topics as the geologic characterization of the seabed, mapping of living ocean resources and habitats, and development of the tools, sensors and techniques used to map the oceans.
As a student in the ocean mapping program at UNH, you’ll gain experimental, numerical and analytical skills through rigorous classes and research projects. You’ll have access to exceptional equipment and facilities, including the Center for Coastal and Ocean Mapping/Joint Hydrographic Center (CCOM/JHC), one of four data centers for the Seabed 2030 project, which aims to create the definitive map of the world ocean floor, the Jere A. Chase Ocean Engineering Laboratory, and the R/V Gulf Surveyor, a 48-foot ship purpose-designed for ocean mapping activities. Our extensive experimental and computational facilities include a variety of test tanks, autonomous and robotic vehicle development programs, high-performance computing clusters and data stores, and a data visualization laboratory. Most students accepted into our program are supported as research associates through externally-funded grants.
