The Semester by the Bay program is currently accepting applications for undergraduate students interested in studying marine biology (marine mammals, seabirds, fishes, tide pool invertebrates, etc.) this fall in the beautiful seaside town of Homer, Alaska. Our courses offer students numerous unique hands-on, experiential learning opportunities in the lab and field, such as behavioral ecology of beluga whales, sea otters, and harbor seals, acoustics of harbor porpoises, seining and identification of estuarine fishes, behavior of seabirds at island rookeries, scientific illustration, marine mammal skeletal articulation, among others. In addition, most students participate in community-based internships and/or volunteer opportunities with governmental or non-governmental researchers while studying with us at the Kachemak Bay Campus of Kenai Peninsula College - University of Alaska Anchorage. KPC offers in-state tuition and many internships include free or significantly reduced housing. The first deadline for internships is March 23, 2015.
