The interdisciplinary program is based in a newly opened building on the Biscayne Bay Campus but includes faculty from diverse departments on two campuses. With unique access to diverse coastal ecosystems of South Florida and the Caribbean and long-term programs worldwide, the Marine Science Program at Florida International University strives for excellence in research, teaching, and public outreach that will aid in the conservation of marine resources for future generations.
The Marine Biology major is a major within the Department of Biological Sciences. As an interdisciplinary program, the faculty comes from the diverse departments of Biological Sciences, Chemistry and Biochemistry, Earth and Environment, and the Southeast Environmental Research Center.
The aim of the Marine Biology degree program is to provide a strong foundation in cell biology, molecular biology and genetics, organismal biology, and population biology, evolution, and ecology.

This field of study will prepare students for further graduate and professional studies, as well as for employment in areas that require university-level training in marine biology and oceanography.
