Doctoral programs in Oceanography are available in many PhD universities in the US. The Department of Oceanography in the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology under the University of Hawaii at Manoa conducts a number of these programs. They include doctoral programs in chemical oceanography, physical oceanography, biological oceanography, and geological oceanography. After award of a PhD in Oceanography from this School, a person can have three career options. They are in academia, in government, and in industry. Unfortunately it is difficult to obtain a online university degree for marine biology and other wildlife related degrees.
These programs are all highly specialized and have high standards. As a result of this, they are not only demanding, but also carry high expectations.
