Huntsman Marine Science Centre
The Huntsman Marine Science Centre is a membership-driven,
not-for-profit organization founded in 1969 by a consortium of 20
universities in Eastern Canada pooling their resources to provide
field research and teaching facilities to complement their
programs in marine biology and oceanography. The spirit of
cooperation that gave rise to the Huntsman as a centre for
university research has grown over the years to encompass
government, industry and the public, today providing
opportunities for marine scientific research, information and
technology transfer and education and training unequalled in
Canada.
Facilities include well-equipped teaching and aquaculture
research laboratories, a 15 m research vessel, dining rooms and
accommodations.
The Huntsman is located in St. Andrews, New Brunswick on the
shores of the St. Croix Estuary of the Bay of Fundy, one of the
most diverse marine regions in the world, providing exceptional
opportunities for studying transitional zones between
terrestrial, aquatic and marine environments.
Huntsman has twice received the Gulf of Maine Visionary Award -
in 1991 for our Public Education Program and in 1999 recognizing
the lifelong work of our senior scientist emeritus, Dr. W.B.
(Bev) Scott.
