Join us for the documentary Desert Seas, which was created for National Geographic by Saudi Aramco and renowned Icon Films, as it showcases the dazzling Red Sea and the wondrous Arabian Gulf. Staff from our very own Red Sea Research Center participated in the development of this stunning film. Also showing will be Guardians of the Red Sea, which was filmed in the Fall of 2009, and is the story of the first-ever joint research project between KAUST and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.

This screening of Desert Seas is presented by Prof. Michael Berumen, Director of the Red Sea Research Center at KAUST. Professor Berumen served as one of the scientific advisors during the creation and production of the film.

Graduate Affairs is pleased to sponsor the presentation of this film during Orientation 2022.
