Scuba diving is an important part of both academics and undersea research at the University of Rhode Island.

URI divers are engaged in research around the world covering multiple disciplines from marine biology, ecology, oceanography, archaeology, ocean engineering and conservation. The Diving Safety Program provides training and support for research and exploration of our underwater world, and includes both for-credit courses and not-for-credit recreational and professional certification programs.
