Overview
Students in the Chemical Oceanography program of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have access to courses, programs and resources at one of the top oceanographic research institutions in the world (WHOI), one of the top research universities in the world (MIT), and they have the opportunity to take courses at Harvard. In addition to seminars and lectures by visiting scientists from all over the world, students can expand their intellectual horizons by taking courses or participating in programs well outside their main area of focus.
Chemical oceanography is the study of the pathways that chemical species follow on their transit through the oceans. Chemical oceanographers examine vast ranges of time and space scales...
- From molecular level to global in space
- From fractions of a second to billions of years in time
Interdisciplinary focus
Besides addressing purely geochemical issues, chemical oceanographers work at the boundaries between chemistry and biology, geology and physics. There they apply their efforts to a broad spectrum of interdisciplinary challenges.
Programme Structure
Courses include:- Marine Chemistry
- Seminar in Chemical Oceanography
- Geochemistry of Marine Sediments
- Modeling, Data Analysis, and Numerical Techniques for Geochemistry
- Ore Deposition at Submarine Ridge Axis
