[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Such a neat field! I have heard (from a marine biologist, actually) that the best thing to do is to get a general biology degree as a undergrad, and then to specialize in graduate school. Just FYI, and take it with a grain of (sea) salt, since it's secondhand info! :) [/quote] The most important thing - besides getting good grades - is getting research experience in college and/or working in research a couple of years after graduating before applying to grad school. A general biology degree is good, but it's nice to have access to a marine lab if that's what you're sure you want to do. Another school to add to your list is UC Davis which runs the Bodega Bay marine lab, and undergrads can take courses or work/intern there.[/quote]
