HIMB Research Experiences in Marine Science Summer Program

HIMB Research Experiences in Marine Science Summer Program REMS is an advanced, inquiry-driven and experiential marine biology summer course hosted at the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology

HIMB REMS is an advanced, inquiry-driven and experiential marine biology summer course that builds science and environmental literacy skills for Hawai‘i high school students and recent graduates. The goal of the program is to increase interest in marine science fields among students whose ethnicities are underrepresented in marine science majors at UH Mānoa. The program targets participation from students attending Hawai‘i Public Title I schools with native Hawaiian, Filipino, and other Pacific Islander backgrounds. The course is located at Moku o Lo‘e (Coconut Island) in Kāne‘ohe Bay and utilizes the expertise of HIMB researchers whose specialties demonstrate how human impacts and global change affect coral reef ecosystems. Topical content is taught over a two week period, with appropriate emphasis placed on marine conservation, stewardship and sustainability. At the completion of the first two weeks of instruction, student teams conceptualize and execute a ‘minii' research plan over the following three weeks. Students work both in the field and in the lab at HIMB.
