Have you wondered how many fish are in the sea?
If so, consider a career in Fishery Science
When Congress reauthorized the nation's primary fishery conservation law last year, the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, it directed the secretaries of Commerce and Education to conduct a study whether there is a shortage in the number of people pursuing and obtaining higher education in fishery science who have the ability to conduct high quality research in fishery population dynamics, stock assessments and related fields. This Report to Congress presents the results of this study with important conclusions for the future of higher education and fisheries management.
