Marine Environment Monitoring Service (MEMS)

M.E.M.S. is a relatively new service at UWC Atlantic College, and continues to develop.

This service is staff lead, but promotes student initiatives with a view to encourage active involvement in environmental conservation projects with a marine emphasis.

The projects involve working with and supporting outside organisations such as:

The Marine Conservation Society, The National Lobster Hatchery, P.A.D.I. Project Aware Foundation, Exeter University Geomorphology Survey and The Nautical Archaeological Society.

 

Students are encouraged and expected to research and connect globally at all levels to promote our aims.
The service also encourages the students to be face to face with local groups in the college area to promote and develop conservation awareness.

 

The intention is to provide opportunities for our students to take this knowledge further afield by being involved in marine gap year projects, working with and assisting the development of remote communities to promote sustainable conservation. We aim to instil in all a will to make a lifelong commitment to conservation and protection of our planet and beyond.
