Oceanography at Palomar College
Palomar College's Oceanography Program emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of ocean processes and focuses on local oceanographic phenomena. The program is part of the Earth, Space, and Aviation Sciences Department and consists of three full-time and several adjunct instructors. At least 10 sections of Oceanography 100 Lecture and six sections of Oceanography 100 Lab are taught each semester. The combined lecture/lab course, Oceanography 101, is also taught each semester.
