Northwest Center for Sustainable Resources - The Marine Fisheries Series 01.25.2010     The Northwest Center for Sustainable Resources (NCSR) is a national resource center for curriculum products supporting undergraduate natural resource disciplines. The Center is supported by the National Science Foundation’s Advanced Technological Education (ATE) program.

Recently NCSR has completed a comprehensive series of curriculum modules on Marine Fisheries. The Marine Fisheries Series consists of nine modules covering the background, current status, causes for decline, management approaches and anticipated future of this vital resource. The marine fisheries modules are most appropriate for inclusion in undergraduate courses such as Environmental Science, Introduction to Natural Resources, Marine Biology, Introduction to Fisheries and Fisheries Management. Parts of the modules also have application in courses with a broader scope such as General Ecology and General Biology and for informal science education audiences.

The Marine Fisheries modules as well as other curriculum products can be downloaded from or ordered in hardcopy and on CDs through the NCSR website.
