Fostering ocean stewardship through Biscayne Bay connections
The mission of Blue Scholars is to engage, educate and empower students through hands-on (and virtual) marine science education to foster a connection to the ocean and to launch long-term environmental stewardship. The points of the compass direct Blue Scholars to achieve four guiding principles.
Education
Our true north is to provide hands-on curriculum on marine biology, marine ecology and watershed concepts.
Research
East of Miami lies Biscayne Bay where our students sample and record water quality data for citizen science.
Impact
To the west, participating groups perform a community service project to earn their trip and benefit the greater good.
Opportunity
Blue Scholars seeks to develop expedition partnerships south in the Caribbean to expand programming and impact.
