One-year Master of Research in Marine Mammal Science We are currently accepting applications for the 2007/08 entry into a new Master of Research (MRes) course in Marine Mammal Science based at the University of St Andrews in Scotland. This is a unique one-year course intended to prepare students fully for a professional career in marine mammal conservation and research. It is, first and foremost, a course in quantitative marine ecology. The programme is tailored to address the scientific challenges of marine mammal physiology and behaviour with strong components of methodology, laboratory work, and field study. The course will be taught by members of the Sea Mammal Research Unit (SMRU), with some modules jointly organised with the School of Biology and CREEM (Centre for Research into Ecological and Environmental Modelling). For further information on the course, entry requirements and how to apply see http://biology.st-andrews.ac.uk/courses/mres_mms/.
