Does UCSD have an outstanding Marine Biology/Oceanagrophy department

Dont get the idea Im trying to discourage you--maybe I didnt make it all that clear--I dont think UCSD offers a specific undergraduate program in marine science--I really dont know of any universities that do (maybe this has changed, youd want to look at their web site and see what they offer)--rather, you would major in one of the major sciences, depending on your interest--you mentioned biology, so lets say you majored in biology or biochemistry or bioinformatics, molecular biology,......
Well, not as such, but the entire institution was deliberately started right next to Scripps Institute of Ocenography (right up the hill from Scripps--2 min drive), and many of the faculty at Scripps are also faculty at UCSD. The two institutions are intertwined vis a vis research/teaching.

EDIT: Even in this era of decline in support for higher education i would never try to discourage anyone from going to any of the UCs. Don't get the idea I'm trying to discourage you--maybe I didn't make it all that clear--I don't think UCSD offers a specific undergraduate program in marine science--I really don't know of any universities that do (maybe this has changed, you'd want to look at their web site and see what they offer)--rather, you would major in one of the major sciences, depending on your interest--you mentioned biology, so lets say you majored in biology or biochemistry or bioinformatics, molecular biology, genetics, whatever--then specialize in the marine aspect as a graduate student at Scripps. Check out their site, maybe call them up and see what's available. San Diego was a great place to grow up and go to school, but it's a different place now, at present it's only great if you've got plenty of money, otherwise the only positives are the weather and the ocean. Of course if you're a student it's always simpler, since you'd only have to worry about yourself, and you can get by for a lot less. Fees are gonna really bite, though...and if you're not a state resident there'd be tuition on top of that...
