This specialization focuses on the technology that supports the sustainable use of marine resources.

You will learn about vessel and fishing gear design, processing systems, and enabling technologies for fisheries. The goal is to reduce environmental impact and improve efficiency, particularly when harvesting low-trophic resources such as kelp and copepods.

You will also explore aquaculture technologies. Topics include life cycle assessment (LCA), analysis of environmental interactions, and the integration of new, smart technologies.

The specialization covers both sea-based and land-based aquaculture systems, including salmon and seaweed farming, recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), and juvenile production.

This track prepares you to develop innovative solutions for a more sustainable seafood and marine technology industry.
