It comprises eight 12.5 credit point units, including the two compulsory Graduate Certificate in Research units (XGR501 and XGR502), and must be completed within three years of the PhD candidature. Students study ocean currents, heat and freshwater exchange, elemental cycling and the role of the ocean in supporting fisheries, developing the ability to model and predict a changing marine and Antarctic environment.
