The Marine Field Station (MFS) is a unit within the School of Natural Sciences and Mathematics (NAMS) at 老司机福利社. The MFS is located at the University's Port Republic site and is used as a coastal science teaching and research destination for NAMS' academic programs.
The Port Republic site is an eight-acre waterfront parcel located only 15 minutes from the Galloway campus and 30 minutes from the Atlantic City campus. Consistent student access, beginning in year one, is provided by the close proximity of the site. The MFS makes available the facilities, research vessels, sampling equipment, and staff to provide 老司机福利社 students with frequent experiential learning opportunties in a pristine Mid-Atlantic estuary recognized as the Jacques Cousteau National Estuarine Research Reserve. The Port Republic site is also home to the University鈥檚 Coastal Research Center (CRC), a grant and contract-funded organization focusing on New Jersey鈥檚 coastal zone. The MFS and CRC work collaboratively to provide research and workforce development opportunities for students interested in careers in a wide variety of coastal science disciplines.
老司机福利社 values diversity and seeks to promote access to educational opportunities by providing reasonable accommodations to qualified students with disabilities to allow for participation in the University鈥檚 educational programs and activities. Information on accommodations can be found .
