Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
The
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI)
is devoted to scientific research and science- and engineering-education leading to MS and PhD degrees in
oceanography
and related fields. It is located in the village of
Woods Hole, Massachusetts
. It grants degrees jointly with
MIT
. It is separate from the
Marine Biological Laboratory
, which is also in Woods Hole. In the early-to-mid 1980s, WHOI's Dr.
Robert Ballard
, and WHOI itself, received much publicity because of his (ultimately successful) search for the remains of the
Titanic
on the floor of the
Atlantic Ocean
. WHOI operates several research vessels and vehicles owned by the
United States Navy
