Marine Biology also refers to Biological Sciences or Biological Oceanography. Marine Science is the general term for research conducted in oceans and coastal or inland waters connected to the sea. This particular field is probably the best known to the public. Marine Biology deals with the study of micro and living organisms such 
            
 as plants, animals, viruses, and bacteria in oceans, estuaries, and 
            
 other bodies of saltwater.  In the feild of Marine Biology, you plan, 
            
 participate in, and administer research programs for government 
            
 experiment stations such as private research centers, manufactoring 
            
 firms, and medical service industries.  Tools and equipment for this 
            
 career includes lab animals, X-Ray and other lab equipment, 
            
 computers, spectrophotometers, collections of specimens, and a 
            
 Starting no later than high school, a Marine Biologist should 
            
 obtain a solid education in as many basic sciences as possible 
            
 including chemistry, physics, and biology.  Mathematics is essential.  
            
 Plane geometry, trigonometry, solid geometry, and two years of 
            
 algebra is recommended.  Good English is no less important, for 
            
 both written and oral reports are a big part of Marine Biology.  The 
            
 study of a foreign language, especially French, German, or Russian 
            
 should begin early.  Degrees in this study are offered only to college 
            
 graduate students.  Most entry level jobs minimally require a 
            
 Bachelors degree in natural science from an accredited college or 
            
 university.  Doctoral degree holders face competition for independent 
            
 research positions. Those with a Bachelors degree or Masters degree 
            
 in biological sciences can expect better opportunities for nonresearch 
            
 In order to be a Marine Biologist or in any line of work, you 
            
 have to be really dedicated to your job.  This is the job I have always 
            
 wanted ever since I was a little girl.  I always loved the water 
            
 especially the ocean. I think there i...
