The Marine Science Center hosts a Coastal Ocean Science Academy (COSA) for students entering 9th or 10th grade in the following fall. During the two-week academy in mid-August, students do field work in local marine habitats in and around Nahant, spend time aboard Northeastern University's research vessel Mysis on oceanographic trips, and partake in ongoing Marine Science Center research.

This is a great opportunity for students to be introduced to marine science and have some fun while doing so. On the last day of the Academy families are invited to attend a family BBQ at the Marine Science Center.
