I guess I should chime in since I go to Florida Tech for Marine Bio and Aquaculture. To start off, there isn't much to do in Melbourne so if you're looking for a party city deffinately not Melbourne. As for the school itself, there's some professors I'd rather not have but that's with any school. Dr. van Woesik is world renowned for research on coral bleaching, mainly sps. Last year he was in Mexico with grad students doing some research with coral bleaching. In terms of Aquaculture, we have a facility in Vero Beach that's in conjunction with MariTech (aquaculture company). Some of my friends are interning at Epcot's aquaculture department and ORA. The campus is small. There isn't a diving club but people go diving together all the time. There is an aquaculture club but not much gets done.
If you have any other questions let me know and I'll answer them to the best of my ability
