Objectives

This master’s degree provides knowledge and promotes skills that ensure the advanced training of professionals capable of intervening in the research and management of the sea and coastal areas, in the sustained development of aquaculture and fisheries, and in the creation of added value for the marine ecosystem resources and services. Teaching promotes gains in professional and personal skills, emphasising practical aspects and the progression of initiative and creativity. This master's degree is oriented towards the study of the biota that inhabits the oceans and coastal areas, considering them as part of a dynamic environment that needs to be preserved and as limited natural resources whose exploitation is intense and complex, requiring qualified individuals.
