IMAS is involved in many community events around Tasmania. Our local community is an integral part of our research and outlook, so if you see our boats or scientists out and about, come and say hello.
We have a range of ways how to get involved with the IMAS community, including what events are happening near you.
As a university, we are committed to helping your school and community strengthen a love of learning by connecting you to inspirational activities, resources, people and ideas.
Our scientists and students are involved in various programs and are available to visit your school to explain our science and engage Australia’s future marine biologists, glaciologists and oceanographers.
Citizen science is an exciting way for the community to help researchers investigate important questions about our oceans and marine ecosystems.
Citizen scientists help us gather information which are vital contributions to our work – and it’s a great opportunity for us to connect with our community.
Here are some of our projects involving enthusiastic citizen scientists:
With your help, our researchers can continue to tackle some of the vital issues our world faces - from climate change to ecological biodiversity, food security and more.
