About Master of Arts - Marine Policy and Management - Marine Resource Sustainability (Non-Thesis)
Human uses of the marine environment, including fishing, aquaculture, energy development, and tourism, have increased significantly in the past two decades. Coastal areas are highly productive and resource-rich ecosystems and also account for some of the most sought-after real estate in the world. Multiple uses, potentially conflicting interests, and economic and social dependency create ever more complex issues of sustainability, environmental law and policy, and resource management.
With the University of New Haven's Master of Arts in Marine Policy and Management, students will gain the higher-level skills, practical experience, and interdisciplinary knowledge that enable them to thrive in this environment and in the related fields that feed into it.
Fathom the Depths of Human-Marine Dynamics:-
Through the University of New Haven’s Master of Arts in Marine Policy and Management program, students will acquire a deeper understanding of the complex forces at play in marine-linked human and natural systems. The competencies that students gain in the program — developing and implementing policy and management plans, strategizing for effective public outreach and communication, and highly refined research skills — will make them a vital part of the decision making process on issues of marine natural resource management, policy, and sustainability.
In addition:
- The interdisciplinary nature of the program creates multiple opportunities for collaborative efforts across programs, departments, and colleges within the university
- Students will focus their career path by choosing one of two concentrations: Marine Resource Sustainability or Marine Education and Outreach
- The University of New Haven offers both a thesis and non-thesis option. The non-thesis option can also be completed in an accelerated one-year format instead of the traditional two years
- Students will benefit from the strong professional connections that the University maintains with other educational, governmental, international, and professional organizations. This first-class network includes Gather New Haven, the Bureau of Aquaculture in Milford, the Northeast and Southeast NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service, and academic and government connections in Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the Gerace Research Center in the Bahamas. Through these organizations, students will have opportunities for matchless hands-on experience and entrées to possible full-time employment
