Want to dive deeper? Minor in Marine Biology! FISH/OCEAN/BIOL** 250 (5 credit version) is a core course for the Marine Biology Minor. You can declare the marine biology minor anytime (even pre-major!) and it can be paired with any major!
To learn more or declare, email marbiol@uw.edu or visit us online.
**What
does FISH/OCEAN/BIOL 250 mean? Basically, this course is cross-listed
across 3 departments. You can sign up for either FISH 250, OCEAN 250, or
BIOL 250 - all of these listings are for the same class! So, if you
see that the lab section you want is full, simply search for the same
section under a different prefix. Ex. if FISH 250 DB is closed, check to
see if OCEAN 250 DB is open. Then sign up for OCEAN 250 D and OCEAN 250
DB instead. Questions? Confused? Email marbiol@uw.edu for assistance :)
