The Coastal Semester is an experiential learning program that provides a solid academic framework for the study of environmental science that immerses students in coastal environments by traveling to multiple sites throughout the Chesapeake Bay watershed. As a member of a close-knit, motivated community, students will gain an understanding and appreciation for the coastal environment through an interdisciplinary program covering the biology and ecology of the coastal environment, as well as placing coastal issues in a historical and cultural context.
