Hi There!

The marine biologist is anyone who studies or works with plants/animals living in salt water. It includes everything including microbes/planktons to the largets whales. To gain an entry level job in marine biology you need a UG degree in related domain and with zoology degree you have a chance to become marine biologist. You can go for master's degree in marine biology or any PhD degree, if interested (if you want to do any research or university teaching). There are many foreign companies which hire marine biologists such as Ecosulotions, Marine Research Ltd. based in Bucharest, ROMANIA, Nutra-kol, EnviroMatrix Analytical, Inc. ( EMA) , etc.

Thankyou!
