He has been responsible for training more than 600 students in production aquaculture and reproduction biology of aquaculture species and has facilitated the education of aquaculturists and aquaculture researchers from Spain, Colombia, China, Philippines, Korea and the United States. 
Many of theseformer students are strategicallypositioned to ensure globally sustainable aquaculture development and now work in the aquaculture industry, academia, government and private consulting firms.  

Serge joined the department in 1977 and was director of its Aquaculture and Fisheries Program from 1995 through 1998, the year in which he received the Distinguished Service Award from the California Aquaculture Association.
