Humboldt Scientific Diving Hooded Sweatshirt
Rock this locally designed sweatshirt with our local marine system in mind!
Designed as a tribute to the incredibly diverse and resilient yet ever-changing ocean system of the Northern California coast. But like the environmental degradation we see across the world, Northern California kelp forests and rocky reef ecosystems have experienced their own adverse impacts. By supporting the Humboldt Scientific diving program, you are also supporting the conservation and preservation of our ocean systems.
As a research, educational, and vocational asset, the diving program is highly interdisciplinary and widely used after graduation. Diving has been used by students, staff, and faculty in the fields of marine biology, oceanography, fisheries, wildlife, geology, engineering, industrial technology, art, business administration, physical education, recreation administration, archeology, natural resources, and photography. The minor facilitates undergraduate studies, advanced degrees, and careers in government or the private sector.
Additionally, this minor provides broad-based support of subaquatic research, education, and recreational activities. The courses and certifications within the minor meet diving and training standards of Cal Poly Humboldt, the National Association of Underwater Instructors (NAUI), and the American Academy of Underwater Sciences (AAUS).
Our very own founder of Backscatter, Berkley White, along with multiple of Backscatter's valued employees and customers, are proud Humboldt diving program alumni, and we personally appreciate your support!
By purchasing one of these sweatshirts, you will be supporting a student's ability to participate in this highly renowned program and supporting volunteer instructors necessary to assist with training in both pool sessions and open water weekends, as this is a crucial part of the program for safe diving ratios.
