Overview
Our Ocean and Climate Science programme takes an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the marine environment. With fieldwork opportunities embedded in each year of the course and our strong links to the National Oceanography Centre, Liverpool is an excellent place to study Ocean and Climate Science. The ocean plays a vital role in regulating Earth’s climate by controlling the movement of heat and carbon around the planet. Understanding these processes is essential for addressing global challenges such as climate change, sea-level rise, and ecosystem change. The Ocean and Climate Science BSc at Liverpool takes a multidisciplinary approach, combining physical, chemical and biological perspectives to explore how the ocean and climate system interact. You will develop a strong understanding of ocean circulation, climate processes, marine ecosystems and biogeochemical cycles, supported by practical training in quantitative and data-driven approaches to marine science. Learning takes place through lectures, laboratory work, computer-based analysis and field activities, including opportunities for sea-based practical experience and an independent research project in your final year. Liverpool offers a unique environment for studying ocean science. The programme benefits from close links with scientists at the National Oceanography Centre Liverpool, who contribute guest lectures. The degree is accredited by the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST), supporting pathways into careers in marine science, environmental consultancy, policy and research. We consider applications from prospective disabled students on the same basis as all other students, and reasonable adjustments will be considered to address barriers to access. Our degree is one of only a handful in the UK to be accredited by the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMAREST),opening upopportunities for students and graduates of our programmes.
