Proposal for the Initiation of New Instructional Program Leading to the Graduate
Certificate in Marine Resource Management
Oregon State University
College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences
Marine Resource Management Program
1. Program Overview
a) Proposed CIP Number: 03.0205
b) Provide a brief overview (approximately 1-2 paragraphs) of the proposed program,
including a description of the academic area and a rationale for offering this program
at the present time.
Utilizing existing courses taught at Oregon State University, the proposed 18-credit Graduate
Certificate in Marine Resource Management is intended to make the core elements of the
existing Masters of Science degree in Marine Resource Management available in an
abbreviated form to a wide range of graduate students enrolled in other ocean-related
programs at OSU.
Internationally, nationally and in Oregon there is a revolution in interest in marine systems
and their interaction with the structure, process and functioning of atmospheric and terrestrial
systems. This revolution is driven by many factors including:
• Recognition that change in marine systems and processes is inevitable and that natural
change is made more complex by human-induced ecosystem change, much of which is
quickly recognized as undesirable.
• Ongoing social, political, demographic and institutional changes that create greater
institutional and political challenges for managers of marine resources than those seen so
far. This often manifests itself as increased media coverage of marine issues, and nongovernmental organization and public pressure for enhanced conservation and protection
of marine environments.
• Recognition by marine managers that the demand for and cost of avoiding, mitigating or
remedying adverse effects of human activities on the marine environment will increase.
OSU’s Masters of Science in Marine Resource Management (MRM) is a science-based,
multidisciplinary program based in College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Science (COAS).
Established in 1974, MRM has 200 alumni and currently has 25-30 students in residence at
any given time. Another three or four students are pursuing an MRM minor at any given
time. More than 40 faculty from COAS, other university departments, and outside
institutions participate in MRM. The program has earned national and international
recognition for its exceptional training of marine management professionals.
The proposed Graduate Certificate is intended to complement the intensive MRM MS degree
by making its core elements more accessible and more attractive to a wider segment of the
-1-
graduate student body. The Certificate will have wider appeal to students enrolled in other
OSU programs compared to the existing option of an MRM minor. The Certificate would
increase interdisciplinary educational exchange with other discipline-specific postgraduate
programs at Oregon State University such as Fisheries and Wildlife, Agricultural and
Resource Economics, and Public Policy. Award of a formal Graduate Certificate will help
management-oriented graduates establish careers in the private sector, government agencies
and non-governmental organizations at the local, state, regional, national and international
levels.
c) When will the program be operational, if approved?
The Certificate will be operational immediately on approval.
2. Course of Study

b) Describe New Courses
No new courses will be created for the Graduate Certificate in Marine Resource
Management.
c) Provide a discussion of any nontraditional learning modes to be utilized in the new
courses, including, but not limited to: (1) the role of technology, and (2) the use of
career development activities such as practica or internships.
No new courses are being offered. Some courses in the curriculum are available via OSU
Ecampus or will be made available via OSU e-campus.
d) What specific learning outcomes will be achieved by students who complete this
course of study?
Graduates of the Graduate Certificate in Marine Resource Management will demonstrate that
they:
• Understand relevant biophysical and human dimensions of marine resource management
and facilitate effective communication between scientists, decision makers, and
stakeholders.
• Are able to use the physical and social sciences to evaluate and communicate the costs
and benefits of management decisions across social, economic and political dimensions.
• Employ technical, communication, education, and leadership skills to design and
implement strategies that achieve management goals and facilitate adoption by decision
makers.
E) Is There a Maximum Time Allowed for A Student to Complete this Program? If so,
-3-
Please Explain
Students will be subject to normal requirements for completion of a program of study in the
Graduate School.
3. Accreditation of the Program
The Graduate Certificate will not be seeking accreditation by a professional society or other
body.
4. Evidence of Need
a) What Evidence Does the Institution have of Need for the Program?
In its 2004 report An Ocean Blueprint for the 21st Century the US Commission on Ocean
Policy writes (page 123)
The nation needs a diverse, knowledgeable, and adequately prepared workforce to
enhance understanding of the marine environment and make decisions regarding
complex ocean- and coastal-related issues… . …The education of the 21st century
ocean-related workforce will require not only a strong understanding of
oceanography and other disciplines, but an ability to integrate science concepts,
engineering methods, and sociopolitical considerations. Resolving complex ocean
issues related to economic stability, environmental health, and national security will
require a workforce with diverse skills and backgrounds. Developing and maintaining
such a workforce will rely, in turn, on programs of higher education that prepare
future ocean professionals at a variety of levels and in a variety of marine-related
fields.
On page 137 of the report the Commission writes:
Academic institutions also have a responsibility to help meet future ocean related
workforce needs. Redesigned graduate programs can expose students to aspects of
the marine field outside their primary focus, for example, by exposing science
students to policy issues and policy students to the scientific process. Ocean-related
graduate programs are well situated to develop cross-disciplinary opportunities,
partnering with other university programs (such as education, public policy,
economics, communications, resource management, and engineering), or with federal
facilities and private laboratories.
The proposed Graduate Certificate in Marine Resource Management helps meet this charge
by providing:
• A program design that can integrate seamlessly with masters or doctoral program study in
other OSU departments and colleges and at other OUS institutions.
-4-
•
A recognizable qualification awarded to graduates that is also identifiable to oceanrelated employers as being highly relevant to their organizations.
b) Identify Statewide and Institutional Service-Area Employment Needs the Proposed
Program Would Assist in Filling
The proposed certificate expands the pool of potential applicants for positions in marine
resource management for state agencies such as the Department of Land Conservation and
Development, Department of Fish and Wildlife, Marine Board, etc., and also for marinebased industries, coastal county and city planning departments and marine oriented nongovernmental organizations and industry groups. It also provides access to training and
professional development for staff already employed in these fields.
For example, Oregon’s Department of Fish and Wildlife has asked Oregon State University’s
Department of Fisheries and Wildlife to develop a professional development program that
provides training at the graduate level for employees of the agency with two or more years of
experience. The proposed Certificate provides one training option for Fish and Wildlife staff.
c) Characteristics and Numbers of Students
Potential students are those enrolled in graduate programs at Oregon State University and
who also wish to obtain a formal qualification in marine resource management as part of
their graduate education. Students will be drawn from the College of Oceanographic and
Atmospheric Sciences, the Fisheries and Wildlife and the Agricultural and Resource
Economics departments, and College of Liberal Arts students wishing an applied marine
emphasis to their degree. Students taking the Graduate School’s interdisciplinary
Environmental Science Masters or PhD are also expected to be interested in the Certificate.
A continuous campus enrollment of 10 to 15 students is expected with approximately 5-10
new enrollments each year. On average, 4 students a year are enrolled in the existing Marine
Resource Management minor.
d) Other Compelling Reasons
None
e) Identify any special interest in the program on the part of local or state groups
None
f) Accessibility of the Program
-5-
The program is readily available to campus-based graduate students since it is based on the
existing Masters of Science in Marine Resource Management.
5. Similar Programs in the State
a) List All Other Similar OUS Programs
There are no similar OUS programs.
b) In What Way, If Any, Will Resources of Other institutions be Shared
The Ocean Law and Coastal Law courses are offered through the University of Oregon’s
Law School and are cross-listed as MRM 525 Special Topics/ Ocean Law and MRM 525
Special Topics/ Coastal Law. The course is delivered to the OSU campus as a telecourse by
OSU Media Services.
c) Is there any Projected Impact on Other Institutions on Terms Of Student Enrollment
and/Or Faculty Workload?
This program will not impact other institutions in terms of student enrollment or faculty
workload. No more than one or two additional students are expected to take the Ocean Law
class in any one year.

Overview:
The study of the marine/estuarineenvironmentis by natureinterdisciplinary. The four
basicdisciplineswithin COAS, biology,geology,physicsandchemistry,illustratethis.
Marine resourcemanagementrelies on the core literafureof thesedisciplinesaswell as
the social sciencefor policy, economics,managementand cultwal information. This is a
challengingareafor the OSU Libraries to provide adequatecollections;however,it
remainsan areaof strengthgiven historic and currentcommitmentsto collectionsand
staff expertise.
Collections:
While the traditional MRM Mastersprogramrequiressignificant courseworkin the
sciencesand human dimensionsof the subject,this certificateprogram focuseson more
accessible
elementsof the program. This meansthat demandson the collectionwill not
increaseand can be adequatelymeet as long the OSU Libraries continuesto collect books
andjoumals at the current rate.Formatscollectedareprimarily electronicalthough
certainmaterialscovering the social scienceaspectsare only availablein print or from
somewhatobscureelectronic sources. Careshouldbe takento collect those,especially
the grey and the non North American literature.
Subject-SpecificIndexes and Abstracts
The library subscribesto various databases
that provide accessto the literaturein this
field. Examplesincludethe following:
o Aquatic ScienceandFisheriesAbstracts(ASFA), 1972-present

Expansionof the backfile of WOS would be helpful for the sciencecomponentsof the
proglam.
Accesscosts:
As this is a certificate program and will not requirea significant researchproject or
thesis,studentswill probably not be putting increaseddemandson the OSU Libraries for
accessto material not owned locally. Wherethere is demand,someof this canbe
handledinexpensivelythrough Summit/Cascades
Consortium. The cost can be higherif
materialmust be borrowedelsewhere.Averagecostto borrow an item is $35. A typical
graduatestudentin the COAS borrows four items per year from outsidethe OSU
libraries.If a studentspendsa total of four quarterscompleting the certificateprogram,
the costper student$140 for accessto materialsnot readily available.With an
anticipatedcohortof 10 to 15 students,costsfor accesscould rangefrom $ 1,400to
$2,600per year..
Library staff and expertise:
JanetWebsteris the subjectlibrarian for the Marine ResourceManagementprogram. In
that capacity,shemanagesthe collection,providesinstruction as requested,respondsto

referenceinquiries, and developsmaterialsto assistfaculty membersand studentsin their
research.As a professor,shealso holds adjunctstatusin the COAS as part of the MRM
faculty. Additional servicesinclude the physical attributesof the libraries including
excellentcomputerfacilities, study areasfor individual and group work, and practice
rooms for students.
Summary:
The OSU Libraries currently maintain a shong collection in this area. Our resourcesand
servicesare adequateto supportthis certificateprogram. The recommendationsbelow
areremindersto continue ongoing work being doneby the OSU Libraries that contributes
to the strengthof the MRM presencein our collections.

SUPPORT--Robyn
Matteson,
COASStudent
I think this would make it more difficult than it is now for me to include the MRM program in my studies
(which I still had hoped to, perhapsat the phd level sinceschedulinghas gottentoo difficult within a 2 year goal
for the COAS biological oceanographymaster'sprogram).With the MRM minor I can include someof my
statisticsor GIS work toward the requirement;this changeseemsto be less flexible, requiring 2 coursesfrom
the humaninterestlist in addition to the Law and Principlesof Practiceclasses;twice the socialscience
coursework,which is more difficult to justify to my advisorwithin the context of a researchtrainingprogram.
- my 2 centsas a bio oce student.

The MRM program currently offers a 15 credit minor. Attachedis a proposal
for an 18 creditsMRM certificate. A certificateis officially recognized
on academictranscriptsand would allow more non-MRM studentsto integrate
into the program.
Pleasereview the attachmentand provide any feedbackand commentsby
Friday,March 30th. Feedbackcan be as simpleas: "Great","I support
this", or "Who cameup with this idea!" No responsewill imply the document
is satisfactoryin your mind.
Following, the documentwill be reviewed by InstructionalPrograms

All:
The MRM program currently offers a l5 credit minor. Attachedis a proposal
for an 18 creditsMRM certificate. A certificateis officially recognized
on academictranscriptsand would allow more non-MRM sfudentsto integrate
into the program.
Pleasereview the attachmentand provide any feedbackand commentsby
Friday, March 30th. Feedbackcan be as simple as: "Great", "I support
this", or "Who cameup with this idea!" No responsewill imply the document
is satisfactoryin your mind.
Following, the documentwill be reviewed by InstructionalPrograms
Committee. Afterwards,the proposalwill be sent up the OUS administrative
review board.

Thanks for sendingout this information. It's interestingto seehow the MRM program is evolving. It's funny
though,that all of the mandatoryclasseswith the exceptionof about2, areall hard-sciencecourses.I now work
in conservation-working to set up networks of MPAs throughoutMelanesiaand Micronesiawith The Nature
Conservancy,and think that the classeswhich most benefittedme at OSU were the MRM course(taughtby Jim
Good at the time), the many communicationscoursesthat I took (especiallyConflict Resolution),the business
courses(I minored in Businessand Marketing) and someof the electivesincluding the ecotourismcourse,
environmentalinterpretationand the courseon MPAs that was offered fioint MRM/zoology). I do haveto
admit that I enjoyedthe challengeof the oceanographycourses,but I am now pretty confidet that if my life
dependedon it I would not be able to rememberany of the information that at the time I workd so hard to
learn...Iattributethis to the fact that ot once have I beenrequiredto use this information, asidefrom of course
know the basicswhich I knew before I took the courses.I think from a scienceperspectiveit would be
beneficial to have more coursesthat were joint MRM/Zoology, as conservationand managementdecisionsare
typically basedon the biology/ecology of a systemratherthat the oceanography...which
while it plays a part, is
not the drivine force behind thesedecisions.
I also think that the MRM program ought to really begin to think globally rather thanjust locally. It hasbeena
while sinceI graduatedfrom the program,but during my time at OSU I felt a real struggleto learnthings
outsideof the Oregon/PacificNorthwest situation. I am probably in the minority with thesefeelings,but many
of us leavethe Pacific Northwest and while we can apply our knowledgefrom the region more broadly,I think
that it would have been a good exerciseto encouragestudentsto practicethis type of 'thinking outsidethe box'
while still in school.
All this said,I really loved my time at OSU and think that the MRM program had a big impact on the path that I
am on today. I do care about the MRM program and as such felt compelledto write.
Again, thank you for the updatesas it is always greatto seethe evolution of a program that I was once apart of.
Keep up the good work
Cheers
