FAMU School of the Environment

🌊🐚 Innovation in Action!

We're excited to share a new story highlighting SOE's Rattler Moji Aquatic Sensing Buoy and its impact on both environmental research and coastal communities.

The Rattler Moji Buoy is helping support oyster farmers by providing valuable environmental data while creating hands-on research opportunities for School of the Environment scholars. This innovative project showcases how FAMU students, faculty, and staff are leveraging science, technology, and community partnerships to address real-world environmental challenges.

At the School of the Environment, we’re proud to provide students with experiential learning opportunities that prepare them to become the next generation of environmental leaders.
