260 NATIONAL OCEANOGRAPHIC PROGRAM—1965 
University of Houston 
Houston, Texas 
The University of Houston offers extensive course work 
in geology, the other basic sciences, and mathematics; but does 
not offer courses specifically in marine science except in support 
of the other fields. However, arrangements can be made for 
students who prepare themselves in the basic disciplines at Houston 
to take specialized courses and initiate thesis research at estab- 
lished marine laboratories. Since the University of Houston is 
particularly well located for studies of coastal sediments, emphasis 
is placed on instruction in sedimentation, sedimentary petrography, 
and invertebrate paleontology.
