Which one is best between marine science and environmental health

Marine Science can lead to you studying marine biology, oceanography, marine robotics, climateology/climate change and many more fields. I personally would rather do marine science. Environmental Health deals with public health, infectious diseases and the like. There is a desperate need for workers in both of those fields. The British Armed Forces has a major need for environmental health officers, so much so that they will give you a £27k bonus for joining as one. Have you looked into environmental science? Hope this helps :smile:

Hi @Ilfat hemed,

When deciding the best courses I always recommend looking at the modules and subjects you will be taught and those you will be able to choose. This way you can pick a course that is best suited to your interests and passions.
It would also be a good idea to know roughly where you would like a degree to take you in the future since marine science and environmental health are quite different.

Here are some links to marine courses at the University of Southampton, in case these are of interest to you:
BSc Marine Biology
BSc Biology and Marine Biology

Hope this helps,
