Overview

Marine Policy graduates at the University of Alaska Fairbanks will be equipped with the tools and background to conduct prospective analyses of the anticipated outcomes of alternative management actions and retrospective analyses of actual outcomes of management actions.

Key Facts

The M.M.P. degree program engages students in a curriculum that instills an integrated background in four core dimensions of marine policy, (1) living marine resources and their management, (2) analytic methods, (3) law and policy, and (4) economics, development, and sustainability.

The wide selection of courses that satisfy these core and elective requirements facilitates the individualization of the curriculum to support each student’s goals. Courses are drawn from the Alaska Native Studies, Anthropology, Arctic and Northern Studies, Biology, Cross-cultural Studies, Economics, Fisheries, Geography, Marine Science and Limnology, Natural Resource Management, Political Science, Public Administration, Rural Development, and Statistics programs at UAF and UAS.

Because most of these courses are already offered in remote sites through video-conferencing, this degree program serves students throughout Alaska and beyond.
