Another possibility you might want to consider is learning how to operate underwater drones. This is one course of study offered at Northwestern Michigan College's Marine Technology program and is becoming very popular with many opportunities in the Great Lakes. These are also called underwater ROV's, Remote Operated Vehicles.

Here is a link to a class they offer about underwater acoustics and sonar used, for instance, in search-and-rescue, survey and visualization operations:

It's my understanding that ROV's and remotely operated sonar are being used more and more in place of divers or in settings where diving is impractical.
