At the Acadia Institute of Oceanography, you might say that the edge of the sea is our classroom. Based on the beautiful and dramatic coast of Downeast Maine, AIO takes advantage of everything that nature has to offer. While one group of students finishes a profile of the beach, another group collects specimens for the cold water tanks in our wet lab. Still other students might be busy focusing their binoculars on offshore seabirds and cetaceans.
Each evening our staff or visiting speakers present special lectures that provide background information for the field activities, and mini-seminars about topics in oceanography are offered daily before dinner. There are also optional morning lessons in laboratory techniques. And all students design and maintain a saltwater aquarium.

Summer Sessions
Over the summer, AIO offers one 1-week introductory session, two 2-week intermediate sessions, and two 2-week advanced sessions. For all of these sessions, however, prior oceanographic experience is neither assumed nor required.
• Learn about the Introductory Session
• Learn about the Intermediate Session

Specialized Programs
In addition to core summer programming, AIO offers alumni of our summer programs an opportunity to participate in our select winter programs based in Florida and a Tropical location such as Belize, Jamaica, and Bermuda.
