2024 Coastal Summer Semester Students Arrive

Thirteen undergraduate students arrived at UGAMI on June 1st to begin their month-long residential academic experience. During the first two weeks of June the students take ECOL 4225, Methods in Marine Ecology, which introduces them to Sapelo Island ecosystems and organisms, and provides experience in a multitude of techniques used in ecological research. During the second two weeks, students get to apply this knowledge and conduct an independent research project. Students earn eight hours of credit for their efforts, all while making new friends, meeting professionals in the field, and advancing their careers. For more information contact Dr. Tom Hancock.
