Dalhousie Marine Conservation Society (DMC)

The Dalhousie Marine Conservation Society (DMC) aims to cultivate the interest of marine conservation science in undergraduate students, primarily targeting students in marine biology, biology, environmental science, sustainability and related majors. Marine science is multi-sectoral, and conservation is increasingly important as the effects of climate change and the overexploitation of marine animals and ecosystems are gaining prominence. DMC plans to introduce and engage students in this marine science sector while raising awareness of the broad range of opportunities in this field, including research, statistics, NGOs, and fieldwork.
