EXPLORE THE OCEAN WITH DR. ROZ

Intro to Oceanography

OCE 1001C

An interdisciplinary exploration of the world’s ocean presented in a combined lecture-lab format. This course emphasizes the basic scientific processes that govern the ocean and focuses on the classic disciplines of geological, physical, and chemical oceanography. Using the delicate marine environment of Southwest Florida as a natural laboratory, students will have the opportunity to apply the concepts learned in the classroom to the field.

The Living Ocean

OCB 1000C

A study of the living ocean presented within the context of marine biology and biological oceanography, two closely related albeit distinct fields. This course emphasizes the basic scientific processes that affect marine ecosystems and the organisms in the sea. Using the delicate marine environment of Southwest Florida as a natural laboratory, students will have the opportunity to apply the concepts learned in the classroom to the field.

Marine Biology & Lab

OCB 2010 & OCB 2010L

This course is an introduction to the biology of the sea with an emphasis on the structural, physiological, and behavioral adaptations of marine life. Discussions will center on organisms from the smallest microbes to the largest marine vertebrates and the roles they play in marine ecosystems. Special attention will be paid to the delicate communities of Southwest Florida, including mangrove forests and coral reefs. 

Honors Marine Biology Undergraduate Research

OCB 2910H

This course is intended to guide undergraduate students from all disciplines through the stages of writing a proposal for their research option project and subsequent thesis. Because the course will enroll students from different disciplines, they will also become acquainted with research topics, ways of framing arguments, and making points outside their fields of study, which will help them develop a more interdisciplinary perspective.

Special Topics in Arts & Science

IDS 2930

This course examines selected problems or issues from multiple perspectives in the Arts and Sciences. Selected topics will range from addressing the great questions of human existence such as good and evil, religion, the meaning of life, and the place of human beings in the universe, to contemporary issues such as climate change, sustainability, cultural pluralism, the use of technology, and terrorism.
