Education

QUEST educates and trains the next generation of ecosystem scientists, stock assessment scientists, and economists. It also provides learning and training opportunities on the science behind fisheries management to the general public.

The Center for Marine Biodiversity and Conservation is a collaboration among NOAA, the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California, San Diego; and the San Diego Supercomputer Center. The collaboration provides interdisciplinary training linking the natural, social and informatic sciences with the goal of training the next generation of marine science scholars.

The La Jolla Laboratory partners with the San Diego Unified School District in an education program to help students learn about NOAA Fisheries Service research activities.
