Careers in oceanography usually require an advanced degree (Masters or Ph.D.). A Bachelor's degree in science or math is considered an important qualification for embarking on graduate study in oceanography. Students doing graduate work in oceanography typically have undergraduate degrees in either biology, chemistry, geology, physics, mathematics or engineering.

Information about the degree requirements of the undergraduate and graduate programs in Geology at Kent State University are also available through the Kent State University Department of Geology.

Please feel free to talk with an undergraduate advisor in Geology or any of the Department of Geology faculty for more information.
