MESL School of Marine Taxonomy

at 3 Palace Yard Mews, Bath , BA2 6JY United Kingdom

1. Education

The MESL School of Marine Taxonomy has been developed in response to concerns raised in the UK Taxonomy & Systematics Review (NERC 2010) about diminishing taxonomic skills in the UK as well as the increasing need for these skills following the passing of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009. Alongside formal courses offered by the school, MESL will offer MSc placements and bespoke taxonomy training for students currently undertaking Masters and PhD courses, and longer term apprenticeships are being developed for those wishing to pursue a career in taxonomy. Short courses concentrating on particular phyla, families or interest groups are held regularly. These courses are aimed at graduates and practising taxonomists wishing to enhance their knowledge of marine taxonomy. In addition to the short courses MESL hold a two week Summer School at the Marine Biological Association in Plymouth, aimed at undergraduates and recent graduates wishing to develop their benthic identification skills. The course provides students with sampling and identification experience vital for those wishing to pursue a career in commercial or academic marine biology.
