Friday Harbor Lab Info Sessions


If you aren’t familiar with FHL, we are UW’s satellite marine research station located in the San Juan Islands. We host courses in autumn, summer, and spring quarter. All of our courses emphasize field research and “getting your hands dirty” as a major component of the coursework.
For spring quarter we will offer:
  • Spring Marine Studies – 7 courses to choose from for 12-18 credits, including Marine Mammals of the Salish Sea (yes, you get to observe orcas in the wild), Indigenous History and Environment of the Salish Sea (DIV credit), Science Writing (W credit), Natural History of the Salish Sea, and Introductory Biology (BIOL 180 in a class of ~20 students instead of 500!).
  • Zoology Botany Program – Earn 16 credits towards your degree learning the fundamentals in Zoology and Botany while conducting your own research project! Earn Integrative Field Experience credit for MarBio majors.
