The UK Marine Compendium

Diving offers scientists a unique ability to interact with the marine environment; to conduct experiments and gather data impossible by other means.

Qualified students can develop scientific diving skills via an optional module and then dive in support of their own academic or wider research projects (with the National Marine Aquarium or the Marine Biological Association amongst others).

Students who have completed Plymouth University’s HSE SCUBA course have gone on to achieve great things in all aspects of the underwater industry. Ex-students can be found all over the globe conducting research, exploration, engineering or survey.
