MISSION

Our goal is to promote and support all scientific activities that use SCUBA diving as a resource.

Starting at dive training, we are committed to excellence. Thus, our students use state-of-the-art dive equipment and learn adequate dive techniques for their working environment.

For the researcher, our centre assists in a systematic approach. You can find expertise and advice to plan and execute scientific tasks. We also help in creating and implementing an efficient and safe way to collect unbiased data.

Our scientific dive services are available for various levels of expertise, for both national and international projects. Either for the scientific community – from undergraduate students to researchers – or to the general public with citizen science projects, and governmental agencies.
