Master's in Aquaculture?

[Jimtastic]

I'm thinking about working in the Aquaculture industry and I was wondering if anyone has done a research based Master's in Aquaculture then gone and worked in industry? A lot of the programs I'm seeing are 1 year diplomas which makes sense for technician level jobs.

 

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

While I don't have a master's in aquaculture, I was thinking about heading down that path a couple years ago. I've found few degrees specifically for aquaculture. The lone exception that I could recall off the top off my head is Kentucky State's program. Most aquaculture programs are a section of fisheries (or even wildlife) programs in wildlife schools. So I suggest looking there. I'm not sure what species you're thinking about conducting your research on but here are a few to programs you could look at. Sorry for the regional bias, I'm from the southern US so I know about their programs better than others.
