UKM offers a marine\u00a0science programme for under graduate students. The Marine science programme was\u00a0established in 1985 courses offered include all aspects of marine physics, chemistry and\u00a0biology at the UKM branch campus at Kota Kinabalu Sabah. This programme was moved\u00a0back to the main campus in Bangi at the end of 1995. It is currently operating under the School\u00a0of Environment and Natural Resource Sciences, Faculty of Science and Technology.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Since its establishment, the Marine Science Programme of UKM has experienced\u00a0developments in various aspects that include expanding of the academic staff expertise and\u00a0good teaching, numbers of knowledgeable students and high level of researchs. Nowaday,\u00a0academic staffs from Marine Science Programme of UKM has reputed at national and\u00a0international standings in various field such as researchs on marine organism diversity,\u00a0fisheries science and fish ecology, research on toxic algae problems, marine microbiology and\u00a0biotechnology and climate changes researchs in particular related with El Nino and La Nina\u00a0phenomena. Recognition has been proven based on the various roles playing by the academic\u00a0staffs as leader or coordinator in various global programmes organized by CoML, JSPS, IAEA\u00a0and IOC-WESTPAC. Several academic staffs from this programme have regularly receiving\u00a0invitation or deliver talks on various issues at national and international standings. With these\u00a0achievements, development in knowledge and research, Marine Science Program of UKM are\u00a0now offered the post-graduates programme studies in marine

Apart from that, issues and rules related to research such as intellectual property, copyright, plagiarism etc. will be discussed.\u00a0 Subsequently, students are guided to plan their research and prepare a research proposal. For this, students are trained with techniques in information search both manually and on-line, identifying issues and research objectives, planning research and experimental design within their period of study. Students are required to prepare their research proposal according to the format and free from plagiarism. Students are given the opportunity to present and defend their proposal in a seminar. Students will be evaluated based on written and oral presentation of the research proposal, and final examination<\/span><\/p><p><strong>STAL6013 Advance Marine Ecology<\/strong><br \/>In this course, marine ecology will be discussed in detail with emphasis on tropical and subtropical\u00a0oceans. Main aspects discussed include the primary and secondary productivities.\u00a0This is followed by discussion regarding the consumer population dynamics, consumer\u00a0competition, and the relationship between consumer and producer. Furthermore, marine\u00a0community dynamics and structure will be discussed which include trophic structure,\u00a0taxonomy structure, space dynamics and community development. Biogeochemistry process\u00a0and cycle that function in the marine environment will be discussed. Short term and long term\u00a0changing processes occurring in the marine environment and the effects of these changes will\u00a0be emphasized at the end of the course.<\/p><p><strong>STAL6023 Mariculture<\/strong><br \/>This course will discuss in detail the recent development of marine organism culture such as\u00a0selected fish species, bivalves, cephalopods, crustacean and other potential marine species.\u00a0Topics discussed begin with several relevant technical aspects in site selection, pond or\u00a0floating cage preparation in marine ecosystem, handling and control of cultured stock species,\u00a0aquaculture nutrition and feed formulation, transportation of life cultured organism and\u00a0economical mariculture management aspect. The course will also include several case studies\u00a0in relation to field visits in selected mariculture sites in Peninsula Malaysia.<\/p><p><strong>STAL6033 Marine Microbiology and Biotechnology<\/strong><br \/>This course will discuss in more detail on microorganism activity in the ocean. Studies in\u00a0molecule marine microbiology involve processes including the bioremediation in hydrocarbon\u00a0degradation, interaction between microbe and metals, and adaptation of microbe on extreme\u00a0pressure and temperature will be emphasized. Moreover, metabolite bioactive aspects\u00a0involved in the marine microorganism symbiotic interaction will also be discussed. Studies are\u00a0corresponding with the biotechnology approach particularly in systematic characteristic of\u00a0marine microorganism and bioremediation. Practical methods will be emphasized on the DNA\u00a0extraction, PCR process, gene sequencing, data analysis and management.<\/p><p><strong>STAL6034 Data Analysis Methods in Marine Sciences<\/strong><br \/>Oceanographic and climatological\/meteorological studies often involved in manipulation and\u00a0utilization of complex spatial-temporally distributed datasets. These datasets are archived in\u00a0various formats in order to facilitate transmission of abundant data over the internet. This\u00a0course introduces processing of these data formats. Several software packages that are\u00a0oftenly used will be introduced. Besides, modern analysis techniques for spatial and\u00a0temporally distributed data will also be discussed. These techniques include spatial analysis,\u00a0modern time series analysis as well as the concurrent spatial-temporal analysis.<\/p><p><strong>STAL6043 Management and Conservation of Marine Resources<\/strong><br \/>This course will discuss mainly human exploitation activities on coastal and offshore fisheries\u00a0resources. Global history and fishery resource exploitation flow of the selected fishes species,\u00a0status and levels of world fisheries resource management, and fishery modeling tools used in\u00a0marine fishery stock assessment will also be discussed. Detailed discussion will focus on\u00a0current development on several aspects of marine resource management that include policy\u00a0and legal aspects of management and conservation of marine resources.<\/p><p><strong>STAL6103 Advance Marine Chemistry<\/strong><br \/>This course covers advance aspects of marine chemistry which is focused on the important\u00a0aspects of ocean systems. The controlled process composition of seawater and chemical\u00a0species in ocean will be discussed. The discussion will focus on the marine chemical\u00a0characteristics that occurred which is related to the seafloor, atmosphere and marine\u00a0organisms. Discussion on latest research related to marine chemistry field will also be\u00a0conducted.<\/p><p><strong>STAL6213 Coastal and Estuarine Oceanography<\/strong><br \/>This course provides in-depth understanding of physical oceanographic processes at coastal,\u00a0shelf sea and estuary. The first part of this course covers the physical aspects of estuary.\u00a0These include estuary classification, circulation, stratification, mixing processes as well as\u00a0wave and tidal influences. The sediment and pollutant transport in estuary will also be\u00a0discussed. The second part of this course covers oceanographic processes at coastal and\u00a0shelf sea. These include mixing processes, wave and tidal influences, circulation and currents,\u00a0stratification and fronts. Exchanges between shelf sea and open ocean will also be discussed.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1833\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Entry Requirement<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1833\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1833\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><ul><li>Bachelor\u2019s Degree in relevant field with minimum CGPA 2.50 or equivalent, from any institutions of higher learning\u00a0 recognized by the UKM Senate;\u00a0<strong>or<\/strong><\/li><li>Bachelor\u2019s Degree in relevant field with minimum CGPA 2.00 \u2013 2.49 or equivalent, with minimum of 5 years working experience or research project in relevant field.
