Aquatics degree program?

[adamj]

Does anyone have any suggestions on a degree program which would fit the seasoned aquarist. I was looking at mariculture and a few others.

Any suggestions welcome. Thanks!

marine biology? i dunno really...could probably do something in the field of bio-geography regarding FW habitats...just a couple thoughts, im not really sure

yea, its kind of hard to really find anything. Im not wanting marine biology though i know that.
Most colleges do not give proper descriptions of the degree program so its hard to choose. I'd really like to work in an aquarium or a lab doing similar things as i do now i guess haha.
BTW, im planning my third degree

some colleges offer a course or 2 in Ithicology(sp.) I think that with a biology degree would qualify you to work in an aquarium or lab.

Aquaculture is also related.. some of the univ's up here have that.
I don't know how much money is involved in it. I know there isn't a hell of a lot in architecture (drafting)

I think a collage in Flordia has a program where you work in a commercial fish farm and then when you graduate you'll be ready and trained to be put in as a manager at one of the farms.
