Marine Biologist Careers
Business
There are jobs in the world that only seem to be pipe dreams. In the case of marine biologists, some of them may enjoy their job [or not]. Nevertheless, any career in marine biology doesn’t warrant a yearly income that meets the standard society created. At least a bachelor’s degree (four years of education) is required to become a marine biologist; however, those with only a bachelor’s degree (preferably in marine biology) will make less than those with a master’s degree and/or a PhD surely. Moreover, a bachelor’s degree would only warrant an annual salary of thirty thousand dollars or less. 36.
An additional two to three years is required to earn a master’s degree. This time interval is the standard for most master’s degree programs. In addition, a student may pursue their education even further by obtaining a Phd which takes an additional six years. 3. …show more content…
A marine biologist may make more with a Phd than a marine biologist with a master’s degree and bachelor’s degree; however, this is simply due to the fact that the marine biologist with the PhD is not only more informed about the subject but because they’ve most likely earned more experience than those without a PhD. A marine biologist’s income depends on his/her experience.
Those who earn a job as a marine biologist with a master’s degree or greater will find themselves earning between fifty to seventy thousand annually. Moreover, six to twelve years of experience will have accumulated for someone if marine biology was the main subject in the courses he/she took in undergraduate school. If marine biology wasn’t the major course since the beginning, then it depends on the student’s master’s degree program(s). The number of years studying marine biology leads to the number of years of experience.
