Student Highlights - Semester by the Sea Video

Semester by the Sea is total immersion in marine science. Students spend the semester in residence at the University of Maine’s Darling Marine Center in midcoast Maine. They explore the organisms, habitats and maritime history of the Gulf of Maine in experiential, field-oriented classes.

SBS students report that this setting is often the first time that they have had extended exposure to individual faculty members and that this experience is extremely valuable in making career decisions, especially about graduate school. SBS is open to juniors and seniors from the University of Maine and qualified students from other undergraduate institutions.
