- PIKK807-Atmosphere–Ocean Interactions (3 Credits)
Students will learn about the the basic concept of atmosphere-ocean interactions; sea surface temperature as the important variable of the atmosphere-ocean interactions; large scale atmosphere-ocean interactions; and the ocean dynamic generated by atmosphere-ocean interactions.
- PIKK808-Ocean Geodynamic (3 Credits)
Students will study about the structure of the earth’s interior at local (volcanic), regional (subduction zones, ocean floor spreading zones and transform fault zones) and global (earth’s mantle) and geological processes that occur in them.
- LIKK809-Marine Molecular Ecology (3 Credits)
This course contains the application of molecular genetics as an effort to analyze ecological events that occur in populations of marine organisms described through a brief overview, history of marine molecular ecology and basic DNA/genetic review. Important phenomena of marine ecology and evolution theory such as larval dispersal, life histories, recruitment, habitat and mate, selection, migration patterns, population bottlenecks, founder effect, marine invasive species, mating system, sperm limitation in the sea can be understood through the application of Genetic tools (electrophoresis, PCR, etc.), gene markers, introduction to population genetics and genetic possibilities that occur in nature.
- LIKK810-Marine Chemical Ecology (3 Credits)
Students will study about the chemo-diversity of marine natural products. This course emphasises their function as chemical defence and the impact of stresses on the alteration of metabolite production and diversity.
- LIKK811-Advance Plant Ecology (3 Credits)
Students will study about seagrass, mangrove and seaweed. This course emphasizes about their distribution, diversity, reproduction, community, degradation (threats and disturbances), utilization and benefits (including blue carbon), and reviewing the latest research developments on seagrass, mangroves and seaweed.
- LIKK812-Population Biology (3 Credits)
This course contains knowledge of basic concepts regarding population structure and dynamics in coastal and marine ecosystems.
- LIKK813-Impact of Pollution and Physiology of Stress (3 Credits)
This course contains an understanding of the impact of pollution that occurs either intentionally or as a natural event for aquatic organisms that live in a certain habitat. The response due to polluted waters was analyzed by various methods such as histopathology and osmotic response.
- LIKK814-Reproduction Biology of Marine Organisms (3 Credits)
- LIKK815-Exploration of Marine Resources (3 Credits)
This course contains an understanding of the field of science that examines in depth the procedures and governance of natural resource exploration in coastal and marine waters along with case studies encountered in the implementation and development of natural resource export activities in coastal and marine environments.
- LIKK816-Marine Pharmacy (3 Credits)
This course discusses the potential of bioactive ingredients from marine organisms, methods of identification, bioactivity tracking and their application in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and nutraceutical industries.
- LIKK817-Bioremediation (3 Credits)
Students will study about the application of marine microorganisms and others as bioremediation agents.
- LIKK818-Applied Marine Biotechnology (3 Credits)
Students will study about the application and challenges of innovation in the field of marine biotechnology, recombinant technology, plant and animal biotechnology and its development in the marine sector and bioinformatics in the development of marine biotechnology, as well as technology and bioprocess engineering.
- LIKK819-Ocean Modelling (3 Credits)
Students will study the oceanography parameter phenomena and its environment with numerical model approaches
- LIKK820-Ocean Mapping (3 Credits)
Students will study the concept of ocean mapping and mapping cartography
- LIKK821-Applied Marine GIS (3 Credits)
Students will study how much energy movement occurs in the ocean and the use of remote sensing analysis devices to maximize its utilization for society
- LIKK822-Biological Oceanography (3 Credits)
Students will study the ocean productivity through the process of photosynthesis and nutrients cycle through biogeochemical cycles, phytoplankton distribution, vertical and horizontal zooplankton, water productivity and data transformation in Management models
- LIKK823-Integrated Coastal Zone Management (3 Credits)
Students will study about the integrated approach to manage the coastal environment from the physical process, socio-economic to the policy and regulation for decision making.
- LIKK824-Ocean Wave and Tidal (3 Credits)
Students will study about wave observation, statistic waves, linear wave theory, Swan model and harmonic tides analysis.
- LIKK825-Coastal and Estuarine Oceanography (3 Credits)
Students will learn the biological, chemical and physical processes in estuary.
- LIKK826-Ocean Remote Sensing (3 Credits)
Students will learn the basic concept of ocean remote sensing and its application for detecting and investigating ocean phenomena
- LIKK827-Physical Oceanography (3 Credits)
Students will learn the basic concepts of physics including kinematics and dynamics fluid and physical processes in the ocean.
- LIKK828-Oceanographic Data Assimilation and Analysis Techniques (3 Credits)
Students will learn the technique of data analysis and data assimilation of oceanography data using programming language
- PIKK826-Colloquium (3 Credits)
Students will present his/her research proposal to the supervisors and examiners.

Students will defend the result of his/her final project (thesis).
- PIKK827-Scientific Publication (3 Credits)
Students will study about the ins and outs of publications, especially international publications in reputable international journals. Students are expected to understand and be able to carry out qualified research in order to obtain reliable valid data so that they can be published in Reputable Journals. Students are also expected to be able to know the publication strategy in Reputable International Journals from the stage of manuscript preparation, making graphics/photos/pictures/tables/other illustrations. Students understand the style of language used in writing scientific papers. Students understand and can write scripts independently with the help of a promoter so that at the end of the course a manuscript can be obtained that is ready to be published.
- PIKK835-Thesis (6 Credits)
