Through its diversity and depth, SUNY Morrisville’s Associate in Applied Science degree program in aquaculture & aquatic science prepares you for success in aquaculture, marine biology, fisheries and conservation, and many related industries. Handle fish your very first day with our applied learning in aquaculture.
This program provides fundamental training in aquaculture, fisheries biology, limnology and aquatic sciences. You will explore diverse subjects through practical, hands-on experience in a state-of-the-art aquaculture complex and a wide assortment of laboratory and field settings.
A feature of the program is the college’s Aquaculture Center and Marine Lab, where we raise a variety of species in different systems.

You also can enhance your studies in any SUNY Morrisville degree program through our aquaculture & aquatic science minor, designed for students who also want to gain an understanding of aquaculture, marine biology, fisheries biology, limnology and aquatic biology. You will learn the fundamental scientific principles needed to develop solutions for the pressures placed on our aquatic resources and the production of a sustainable food source through aquaculture.
