Programs
Cold Oceans and Northern Teaching & Learning
At Memorial University, students can study oceans and northern topics in almost every faculty: from dedicated campuses, such as the Marine Institute and Labrador Campus, and departments, including Ocean Sciences, the School of Arctic and Subarctic Studies, and Ocean and Naval Architectural Engineering, to less-conventional disciplines, such as sociology, community health, and political science.
The lists below feature full degree or diploma programs. It is important to note that each program contains dozens, if not hundreds, of options for individual oceans and northern courses.
