Why UNE

摆鲍狈贰鈥檚闭 Marine Science programs are what drew me here. I came to 91直播视频knowing that I wanted to study marine science. When I arrived on campus for my first tour, I was greeted in the admissions office with my name on the welcome screen. Everyone was so friendly. I knew right there that this was where I wanted to be.

Having gone to an engineering type of trade school in high school where I did a lot of programming, I started to miss doing those things. 91直播视频not only made it easy for me to connect with our [math and physical sciences] faculty to add my second major in Data Science, but tie in my current area of study [in the marine sciences]. A Data Science degree will help me achieve a career that combines my love for marine science and engineering.

I just love how 91直播视频is a small school. The professors are phenomenal and it鈥檚 good to see them around campus. The location is amazing. As a marine science person, I love having our own beach [on campus].

Exceptional Teaching and Learning

When I first got here, I made it a big deal to go and talk to my professors. They were all super sweet and willing to help me get involved with research. I鈥檓 working on an eDNA sampler where I research the changes of ocean warming in the Gulf of Maine. I鈥檝e worked in 摆鲍狈贰鈥檚闭 Makerspace to build the device and then programmed an app that helps get it to the right ocean depths.

In the Marine Science world, we can leverage [data science] to help us detect trends, observe changes, and be better prepared to manage and protect our ocean environment. My professors stress how the field applies to any major. Having the ability to get this experience as an undergrad will help you be more successful later on.

Beyond the Classroom

There are so many cool clubs at UNE. I am part of the Scuba Club and got certified. Through this club, I鈥檝e been able to meet so many new friends outside of my classes. I also just joined a new club called Women in STEM and have been a part of Ocean Club and Generation Action.
