MASTS provides the academic platform and knowledge for marine governance and commerce by helping to establish a Scottish strategy for marine science that will deliver increased value to the public from its investments.

These investments are being made in themes that cover regions from the coasts to the deep oceans and subjects from the effects of global change to fisheries and aquaculture. They also enhance our ability to deliver first class training in marine science to support continuity of excellent research talent in Scotland. This venture is delivering a new approach to shared sovereignty and a shift away from a system involving competition between a large number of small research centres to one where there is strong strategic collaboration.
