The Society for Ecological and Coastal Research - SEACR - is a non-profit organization, established in 1998, dedicated to scientific research on the ecology of nearshore marine systems.

The mission of SEACR is twofold:

1. To provide individuals with the educational opportunity to assist marine ecological researchers with their field research data collection;

2. To provide scientific researchers with logistical and financial support throughout their field season.

SEACR accomplishes these goals through its Marine Research Internship Program - MRIP - which supports ongoing scientific marine research on the coast of British Columbia, Canada.

WE ARE NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR THE SUMMER OF 2009 FIELD SEASON!!

Enthusiastic people are invited to discover the challenges of marine field research through SEACR's Marine Research Intern Program. MRIP is a volunteer program where research interns assist qualified marine ecological researchers during their field season. Follow the links below to find out more about MRIP, and how you can become a Research Intern.

SEACR is currently sponsoring several research projects in British Columbia, Canada. The projects are organized and run by the Whale Research Lab of the University of Victoria, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.
