UK & Ireland Regional Student Chapter
The purpose of our chapter is to strengthen links between UK and Ireland-based marine mammal students, by providing opportunities for them to meet and exchange ideas. We have an annual conference open to all UK and Ireland postgraduate (Masters and PhD) students that enables our members to get together and discuss their projects. Our meetings also include invited speakers and workshops, allowing our members to learn new skills and share careers advice (see the schedules of our previous conferences).
