ratingYour study experience

I am engaged in research in the field of Ocean Modeling, guided by Prof. Arthur J. Miller and Prof. Bruce Cornuelle.... is great to be working with such experienced people. The courses I have enrolled in are Geophysical Fluid Dynamics, Ocean Waves, Numerican Optimization, Marine Chemistry and Physical-Biological Interactions. The best thing about my program is that there is ample scope to grow academically.
