Graduate Affairs is pleased to announce the screening of two must-see documentaries.
This screening is part of Orientation 2014, and presented by Dr. Michael Berumen, Assistant Professor of Marine Science and Engineering at KAUST.
- “Desert Seas” is a documentary created for National Geographic, which explores the dazzling Red Sea and the wondrous Arabian Gulf. Saudi Aramco teamed with renowned Icon Films (creators of the hit series, “River Monsters”) to create this stunning feature. The film was also aided by tremendous support from KAUST’s Marine Sciences Department.
- Also showing will be “Guardians of the Red Sea,” the story of the first-ever joint research project between KAUST and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.

can this show be repeated please?
As a Science and Technology major till I was 18 I am very interested on these special screening. But as I work in Admin, I don’t finish work until 5pm.
Is it possible to repeat the show at after 5pm on a weekday or an time at weekend?
Other options maybe showing via Kaust TV network in the future or via intranet web link?
I would also love to see this special screening, but I too work until 5 pm.
Congratulations on these great initiatives!
Thank you for the comments and we will endeavor to sponsor another screening of the Desert Seas movie with a presentation by Dr. Michael Berumen during an evening in the Fall semester. Look out for an announcement on the Lens!
