Our mission is to inspire students from underrepresented backgrounds and communities to find their unique way to connect with the ocean and provide them with the resources they need to turn those connections into reality.

To support this mission, we have prepared over 40 snapshots of unique ocean-related careers to help you find the direction you may want to pursue. Each snapshot has a tremendous amount of information designed to help you find your way from high school through college and then on to your first job. From building a strong academic foundation to lists of potential employers, these snapshots cover everything you need to know.

So if you are looking for a little direction, perhaps you can find it with one of these ocean-related snapshots:
