This is a sneak peak at the marketing for the new (nearly-finished!) Coastal Universities Guide.
The ASBPA Coastal Universities Guide will be an interactive map-based tool for high school or college students looking for an undergraduate or graduate coastal program. Upon visiting the website, a brief “Prezi” – a more engaging, animated PowerPoint – will lead students to an interactive map where they can explore university programs based on their coastal discipline of interest (e.g., geology, engineering, oceanography, etc.).
The goal is to recruit smart young minds already interested in science and math to become coastal geologists, engineers and nearshore oceanographers. We started developing this guide with volunteers, but your donation will take us over the finish line to beta test and make the guide live!
The Coastal Universities Guide will help interested students go step-by-step through a process to figure out the type of program they are looking for and make it easy for them to find the coastal programs that meets their needs.
How to search by state…
…Or search by type of program.
The mapping tool will show coastal programs around the country. (This image is a draft only – university programs are still being added and updated.)
ASBPA staff and volunteers will work to ensure the database is updated as we learn about new and changing coastal programs. Contributions will help ensure that this service stays current!
