Introduction to Marine Biology at Swansea University

The Marine Biology program at Swansea University emphasizes practical teaching, with a focus on hands-on experience and intensive practical modules.

Program Structure

The program includes two intensive practical modules that run in the first semester of Year 2.

Marine Biology Field Course

The Marine Biology Field Course (BIO260) utilizes shore-based techniques to sample marine habitats. This module is the sister course to Boat-Based Marine Biology (BIO245), which teaches students how to sample from a research vessel, specifically the RV Mary Anning.

Residential Field Course

The Marine Biology Field Course is a residential field course based in Dale Fort, located high on cliffs within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. This location offers superb views over the sea and allows for easy access to most of the shores studied on foot.
