Financial aid questions go the same route and are passed to the aid team. The admissions office also arranges individual campus visits and answers questions about open days and access requirements. ## Departments | Department | Email | Phone | |---|---|---| | Life Sciences | | (360) 555-0100 | | Ocean and Earth Sciences | | (360) 555-0120 | | Marine Engineering | | (360) 555-0140 | | Marine Policy and Economics | | (360) 555-0160 | Prospective graduate students should write to a specific member of faculty rather than to a department office. For the doctoral program this is not optional — admission is by supervisor. ## Facilities **Prentice Coastal Field Station.** Course bookings and research use go to the station manager, Tom Whitfield. **R/V *Cascadia Strait*.** Ship time and charter inquiries go to Oliver Brandt, vessel operations manager. **Marine Robotics and Test Basin.** Booking and safety briefings through the Department of Marine Engineering. ## Media inquiries Media inquiries about research go to the department concerned, which will connect you with the researcher. We do not route research questions through a central press office, because the researcher answers them better. ## Campus address Northmoor University sits on the waterfront. Visitor parking is signposted from the north entrance. Prentice Coastal Field Station is thirty-one miles north by road. ## Accessibility Access requirements for a visit, an event or an application process go to the office you are dealing with, and will be arranged. See the [accessibility page](/standard-page/accessibility) for the standing position.
