SOCIAL EVENTS

We organise a variety of socials throughtout the academic year, many of which are in collaboration with AU Zoology and Biological Science Society, the oldest society on campus. Collaborations with AUZBS help fund for our end of year SBS ball, for example, the Land vs Sea pub crawl. The SBS ball is a collaborative event, encompassing AUMS, AUZBS and AU Conservation Society.

LECTURE SERIES AND DOCUMENTARY SCREENINGS

Over the last 2 years, we have hosted a variety of talks from academics and professional scientists, ranging from PhD students to Marine Scotland, lecturers to Marine Conservation Society. Our member's interests are key for these events- get in touch to let us know what topics you want to know more about!

Documentary screenings, such as Blue Planet are a more informal yet educational way to learn about the diversity of the marine environment. We are excited to be screening Blue Planet 2 this year!

BEACH CLEAN UPS

Fortnightly beach cleans along Aberdeen Beach are our main community involvement event. We are grateful to be sponsored by Aberdeen City Council, without which these clean up projects would not happen.
