Undergraduate Studies At The Bodega Marine Laboratory

Summer Sessions

Summer Sessions 1 and 2 offer undergraduate students a multidisciplinary understanding of coastal systems through hands-on, research and field based courses taught at BML. Students from any college or university can apply for these courses.
