Fucking Christ this is cheap?

I don’t think this is a very useful degree. Don’t most biologists have to go through the PhD/PostDoc trying before they can find a job in the field paying more than $30k.



It’s not cheap, but for 4 years, with scholarships and a part time job, isn’t some terrible life-changing burden. I graduated with a compsci degree with no debt. It’s totally still doable, and pays very well on the other side of it.

Marine biology was a bad choice of example, I’ll grant you.
