Everett Community College

Ocean Research College Academy Interdisciplinary Projects

The overarching theme of ocean research at ORCA is evidenced in quarter and year long research projects.  The most extensive of these projects is the State of Possession Sound, a student designed and implemented monitoring project in the local area.  Every month, students conduct on the water sampling from the chartered vessel, The Hat Express, owned and operated by the Hat Island Community.

Please attend an open house to hear the status reports presented by students.
