Testimonials

“OFI’s shark research program delivered a week’s worth of real-life, hands-on experience as a marine biologist. The insights, fieldwork, and relationships gained from this program serve anyone curious about or working toward a career in marine science. Out of all my life experiences, this has been one of the best (and most fun) ones yet.”-Bailey B.

“I had a wonderful time during this field course. I was surrounded by experienced and supportive people who shared information and helped me visualize this in the field. This hands-on research allowed me to put the pieces together on what I have been learning in school, and from the few lectures during the field course.” -Noah J.
