Introduction
The growing importance that the sustainable management of the marine environment and coastal ecosystems is acquiring in state policies is demonstrated in the numerous international agreements signed in recent years.
Many coastal municipalities, in charge of ensuring the health of their beaches and coasts, increasingly require the presence of a figure specialized in the management of the coast and its resources, both biological and tourist. To this growing need for trained personnel must be added the lack of training in state training plans in the different oceanographic disciplines, specialization through postgraduate training being very common.
The Marine Science and Technology program is focused on practical applications that take place in coastal systems. In this sense, a review is made of the different oceanographic disciplines in order to have an undefined idea of the marine environment. Once the existing interactions between the different disciplines are understood, the applied study of the coastal environment is delved into through practical specializations.
