Average Earnings
To determine the overall quality of a graduate school, one factor we look at is the average early-career salary of those receiving their master's degree from the school. This is because one of the main reasons people pursue their master's degree is to enable themselves to find better-paying positions.
Other Factors We Consider
The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.
Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to marine science students as compared to other majors.
Major Demand - The number of marine science students who choose to seek a master's degree at the school.
Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
Student Debt - How much debt marine science students go into to obtain their master's degree and how well they are able to pay back that debt.
Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized marine science related body.
Our complete ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for marine science students working on their master's degree.

Insufficient Data for California
Sad to say, we did not have enough facts to create a ranking of the top quality colleges for marine science in California. This is usually due to there not being enough schools in California that both offer marine science and provided enough information for us to do a proper analysis.
Instead, look at at some of our other Marine Science rankings below or check out our overall Best Colleges for Marine Science ranking.

The bars on the spread charts above show the distribution of the schools on this list +/- one standard deviation from the mean.
The Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), a branch of the U.S. Department of Education (DOE) serves as the core of the rest of our data about colleges.
Some other college data, including much of the graduate earnings data, comes from the U.S. Department of Education’s (College Scorecard).
