  • Informal education at museums, aquariums, zoos, science centers and research facilities

  • Basic and applied scientific research on marine and aquatic topics

  • Business related to education, science and aquatic environments

  • Government agencies - local, state and federal - with responsibilities in education, environment and science issues
