Educational Outreach

IMET's Summer Internship is committed to creating opportunities for a diverse body of undergraduates to enable and encourage students from underserved communities to continue on to higher degrees and careers in marine and environmental science. 

 Students will be exposed to the theory and practice of aquaculture as well as concepts associated with the development of biotechnology supporting sustainable aquaculture. This course offers hands-on experience in fish/shellfish biology, aquaculture microbiology, and marine biotechnology at the state-of-art aquatic animal holding and production facility, the Aquaculture Research Center (ARC), at the Institute of Marine and Environmental Technology (IMET).
