专业科学硕士-勘探科学

勘探科学是现场研究的应用实践和研究，它使用各种方法，技术和方法来推动基于问题的科学工作。在承认勘探的文化和伦理意义的背景下，该领域促进了科学探究和探险技能的应用。随着科学工作变得更加专业化，许多项目需要数百小时的动手研究。勘探科学将科学研究理论和现场技能与外展和教育平台相结合，使广大公众（不论老少）都可以加入迈阿密大学的研究科学家，进行生态，海洋，航空和潜水研究的体验和虚拟考察。勘探科学专业的学生将利用新技术吸引和教育公众，他们将参与公民科学项目设计，勘探技术应用和基于现场的技能培训，同时获得有关勘探历史
The Master of Professional Science (MPS) degree prepares students for science careers in industry, government, and non-profit organizations, where employment demands are growing. MPS degrees were developed and implemented nationally in response to employer demands for well-rounded, highly trained employees with a breadth of knowledge and practical skills to address emerging environmental issues and improve the management of natural and cultural resources. The curriculum is structured to allow students to complete their degree in as little as 12 months (for select tracks), with the training and real-world experience necessary to prepare them for careers in today's professional science job market.<br><br>Exploration Science is the applied practice and study of field research using a variety of methods, technologies, and approaches to drive question-based scientific endeavors. This field fosters scientific inquiry and the application of expedition skills within a context that acknowledges the cultural and ethical implications of exploration.<br><br>As scientific endeavors become more specialized, many projects require hundreds of hours of hands-on research. Exploration Science combines scientific research theory and field skills with an outreach and educational platform that allows the general public, young and old, to join University of Miami research scientists for experiential and virtual expeditions in ecological, oceanographic, aviation and diving research.<br><br>Utilizing new technologies to engage and educate the public, Exploration Science students will be involved in citizen science project design, exploration technology applications, and field-based skills training, while receiving essential background information on the history, ethics and risks related to exploration. Students will be able to tailor their degree to best fit their interests and goals and will be prepared to lead and conduct professional exploration initiatives and expeditions in a variety of environments.
