USC Catalina Semester

Immerse yourself in life at the USC Wrigley Marine Science Center on Catalina Island and add experience to your undergraduate educational resume.

Students who take part in the Catalina Semester live on Catalina Island for the entire spring semester and take selected courses in environmental studies and biology. The courses are designed to make use of the special environment on the island, and students have the opportunity to conduct independent and directed research under the mentorship of USC faculty and visiting faculty.
