EDUCATION AND OUTREACH

OVERVIEW

LUMCON’s Marine Education Program invests in communities through enriching and relevant place- and skill-based experiences for all learners among Louisiana’s diverse citizenry, including those populations underrepresented in marine science. The Program’s purpose is to support and empower current and future marine scientists and ocean-literate citizens.

Marine Education at LUMCON specializes in designing powerful marine, environmental, and science learning experiences in the coastal setting surrounding the Marine Center. The Program focuses on scientific research at LUMCON, promoting awareness of marine and coastal environments and their connection to land and exploring the scientific process and its role in making environmental decisions.

Events and activities at LUMCON are for preK-12 students, teachers, university students and personnel, and the public. Click on these links to learn more:
