University of Sydney Institute of Marine Science

USIMS is the face of Marine Science at the University of Sydney, promoting marine science, coordinating teaching and research, and fostering interdisciplinary research.

Australia's marine territory is one of the largest in the world, substantially larger than it's total land area. Yet, a lot of the Australian marine environment is unexplored, providing many opportunities for research and many varied careers in marine science. Research by USIMS covers a wide range of areas, particularly in the Biological Sciences and Geosciences.

The University of Sydney offers three undergraduate majors and a range of postgraduate programs in Marine Science.
