Doctor of Philosophy in Oceanography

The goal of the graduate program at the University of Washington School of Oceanography is to enable your professional growth through course and independent research. We accomplish this by providing opportunities for you to design scientific programs, to experience sea-going oceanography, to develop a teaching portfolio in order to be well-prepared for careers in teaching, research, and/or administration in academia, government, and the private sector. With few exceptions, all students are admitted into the Ph.D. program. We have a long history of admitting members of the Coast Guard and Navy into a two-year Masters program. Most students will defend an M.S. as part of their progress to the Ph.D.

Although our department is organized by academic options reflecting the basic sciences (i.e. Biological Oceanography, Chemical Oceanography, Marine Geology and Geophysics, and Physical Oceanography), many of the research programs are interdisciplinary with particular focus on climate change, coastal processes, and extreme environments. Graduate certificate programs associated with the school include the Program on Climate Change and the Astrobiology Program. Faculty members from within the school are also participants in the recently-awarded NSF IGERT focused on societal and environmental issues related to ocean changes.
