Ocean Drilling and Sustainable Earth Science (ODASES) is a partnership among scientists, engineers, and educators in the Colleges of Education and Human Development, Engineering, and Geosciences and the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program(IODP). ODASES creates and strengthens links with research, education, and technology in scientific ocean drilling at Texas A&M University.

Overview of ODASES activities since 2003

A similar initiative at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory is the Laboratory for Ocean Drilling, Observation, and Sampling (LODOS).
