The Marine Lab
The Marine Laboratory's mission is education and research in the basic ocean processes, coastal environmental management, marine biotechnology and marine biomedicine.
Studying at the Marine Lab
Duke offers two programs for students interested in studying the environment a little bit closer to the coast. Duke's Marine Lab in Beaufort, North Carolina, is a major center of coastal ecology research. Undergraduates can spend their Fall semester studying at the marine lab, or they can split their Spring semester between Beaufort and Bermuda!
