Since the dawn of history, the seashore and ocean depths, their molecular life mechanisms and dynamic marine ecosystems, have always been a mystery to us. Nestled at the edge of the Eastern Mediterranean, our international MSc in Marine Biology has been addressing this mystery by leveraging our natural surroundings into an innovative global learning hub for researchers and students worldwide.
Under the auspices of the University of Haifa’s globally renowned Leon H. Charney School of Marine Sciences, our world class researchers provide students with the necessary knowledge, tools, skills, and experiential learning to become groundbreaking marine scientists.
