1 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH ALABAMA MARINE SCIENCE (MS) - MARINE CONSERVATION 1 Marine Science (MS) - Marine Conservation Degree Requirements Master Of Science (M.S.) In Marine Conservation And Resource Management The MS in Marine Conservation and Resource Management is designed to provide a formal course of training and professional development in the marine sciences that will enable students to contribute to the sustainable management of marine resources. The program does not require thesis research, but instead offers professional development through group projects and professional internships with government agencies, NGOs, and environmental consulting firms. The curriculum and other requirements can accommodate students currently in the workforce. Applications for Fall admission are due by March 31 of each year. Enrollment normally begins in the fall semester; however spring admissions will be considered on a case by case situation. In addition to the general admissions requirements of the Graduate School, minimal requirements for admission in full standing to the MS Program in Marine Conservation and Resource Management are: 1. A baccalaureate degree in a discipline related to marine sciences (e.g., biology, chemistry, geology, physics, and engineering) or conservation biology (economics, sociology) from an accredited four year college or university. 2. An undergraduate minimum grade-point average of 3.0 overall (4.0 point system). 3. A minimum score of 300 combined on the verbal and quantitative subtests of the Graduate Record Exam (GRE). 1. A completed application including a statement indicating the student's interests and professional goals. 2. Official transcripts from all undergraduate institutions attended. 3. Official scores from the Graduate Record Exam (General Test). Degree Requirements The Master of Science degree in Marine Conservation and Resource Management is awarded in recognition of the student's demonstrated ability to successfully complete a prescribed program of courses. Students are not required to undertake original scholarly research (thesis), but instead complete a capstone project (see below). General Required Credit A minimum of thirty (30) semester hours of course credit beyond the baccalaureate degree is required for students pursuing an MS degree. Details about the curriculum are given as follows. Transfer Credit A maximum of twelve (12) semester hours of graduate courses taken at another accredited university in the same (or closely related) subject as that of the masters program may be considered as part of the MS degree requirements at USA. Only grades of "A" or "B" may be accepted as transfer credits. The Chair or Graduate Coordinator will evaluate transfer credit; the transfer credit is approved by the Dean of the Graduate School only after completion of a minimum of eight semester hours of graduate course work in the MS program in marine conservation and resource management at USA. Course work: All students must complete the four core courses of the program. At least two statistics courses will be required for the program. For students who have not had statistics courses as an undergraduate, ST 540 must be one of those courses taken. The remaining coursework (6 cr) requirement should be met through elective courses that are approved by the program coordinator.

3 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH ALABAMA MARINE SCIENCE (MS) - MARINE CONSERVATION 3 d. MAS 594 directed studies. Up to four credits of directed studies may be earned once a student completes their capstone project. A key element of the program is the capstone project. The project is intended to allow the student to develop professional scientific skills necessary to address the complex problems facing marine and coastal systems. Students will have three options to fulfill this requirement: 1. Group project (between 4 5 individuals). Using a team approach we will encourage most of the incoming students to work as a small "think tanks" to resolve a pressing local or regional conservation or resource management problem. State, Federal and NGO agencies will be solicited for project ideas (1-2 page idea). The student group will then select from the project ideas. Through synthesis of existing literature as well as new analyses of existing data, students will develop a strategy to address the issues. Each student group will develop and maintain a project web site and allocate writing and presentation task equally among the group (the group will be supervised by a faculty member). 2. Students not able to participate in the Group project may design, with the help of the program coordinator an internship with a state/federal/ngo agency or in a research lab (including USA and DISL researchers). During the internship the student, with the help of a mentor and the program coordinator, will design a project to resolve a problem related to conservation and/ or resource management. The internship should result in a paper of modest length (about the length of a journal article) and a formal presentation to the faculty. The Group projects and internships must be design to be completed in two semesters (during the second year). 3. Students may also complete the cap stone requirement by earning a professional certificate in a technical skill. For example a Geographical Information Systems (GIS) certificate. Time Limit All requirements for the MS degree must be completed within five years from the date of matriculation. A student who has not satisfactorily completed a M.S. degree in a five-year period must apply for a defined extension to complete the degree. This request must be recommended by a major professor, the Chair, the Director of Graduate Studies, and approved by the Dean of the Graduate School. If the student does not complete the degree requirements in the defined extension period, the Director of Graduate Studies may recommend, and the Dean of the Graduate School may take, whatever action is necessary up to and including dismissal. Failure to complete the work within the periods specified shall necessitate reevaluation of the student's program, and may result in a recommendation of dismissal by the Director of Graduate Studies to the Graduate Dean. Department Information Department of Marine Sciences web site Master Of Science (M.S.)
