Academia

MEC staff regularly supervise Honours, MSc and PhD-level students for dissertations, most of which result in a peer-reviewed publication.

Specialist Research Services

We also assist organisations with the preparation of funding and grant applications, literature reviews, scientific publishing and reporting, community engagement and outreach programs.
