CASTINE \u2013 Maine Maritime Academy\u2019s Corning School of Ocean Studies is\u00a0hosting a seminar series this spring to examine new and evolving research related to the Marine Biology, Oceanography, and Coastal and Marine Environmental Science majors that are offered at MMA.<\/p>\n

The Spring 2021 Seminar Series consists of six virtual presentations by experts in climate impacts on lobster fisheries and mercury pollution, oil spills and environmental compliance, fuel-efficient vessel design, and operation of scientific equipment aboard large-scale research vessels. Each session is free and open to the public.<\/p>\n

\u201cThough the COVID-19 pandemic has brought about many challenges for teaching, one positive is it has offered us the unique opportunity to invite experts and colleagues from far-reaching geographical locations, which was not possible before the use of Zoom,\u201d said Associate Professor Carey Friedman, who is currently organizing the seminar series. \u201cWe are excited about this semester\u2019s line-up.\u201d<\/p>\n

As part of the Corning School\u2019s academic mission, these events are designed to introduce Maine Maritime Academy students, staff, and faculty, and members of the public, to cutting edge marine research, areas for direct application of skills acquired at MMA, and potential career paths for Corning School graduates.<\/p>\n

For more information about the series, including a list of upcoming topics and links for joining live, please visit the Corning School of Ocean Studies webpage<\/a>. All sessions will be recorded and can be viewed on-demand following the event.<\/p>\n

Maine Maritime Academy is a co-educational, public college on the coast of Maine offering programs of study in engineering, management, science, and transportation.
