DescriptionMany students come to Memorial, in part, because of our strength in ocean research and our geographical proximity to the ocean. This unique program, aimed at students looking for interdisciplinary training in both physics and oceanography, strengthens that connection. Ocean physics provides students with basic and essential knowledge to study the physics of the ocean, atmosphere and climate and contains connections with the disciplines of meteorology, atmospheric science and environmental science.

Many of our undergraduates are actively involved in physics research programs. This experience provides both summer employment and an excellent preparation for a career in industrial or university research. Memorial is the only Eastern Canadian university offering physics with an ocean focus.
