North Dakota has been hailed for its high air quality and also boasts 62 national refuges, more than any other state. Their dedication for conservation bodes well for budding environmentalists, and prospects are good for environmental engineers, specialists, and scientists, all of whom can look forward to increases over 18% in job opportunities through 2012.

North Dakota claims to have more miles of shoreline than California, providing residents and visitors a wealth of recreational options. It is also home to Theodore Roosevelt National Park, named in honor of the president who made his home there and also gave it the nickname of the Roughrider State.

Introduction: The distance-learning program in Coastal Zone Management at Nova Southeastern University’s Oceanographic Center provides a timely, credible forum for learning about key national and international issues and case studies related to the ecology and management of the coastal and marine environment, including ongoing research at the Oceanographic Center. The flexible distance format makes it ideal for adult learners, including working professionals and college graduates in a variety of related fields. Courses may be taken individually for general interest, undergraduate or graduate credit. We offer a full online MS in Coastal Zone Management and a 4-course Graduate Certificate in Coastal Studies. Our distance MS in Education with Specialization in Environmental Education is available through the National Graduate Teacher Education online program. The “Study Abroad” program provides a jointly-taught MS in Marine Biology with a field station of the University of London.
