Opportunities for Scientists

 

The International Ocean Drilling Programme is a unique scientific endeavour. One of its most valuable aspects is that it presents opportunities for environmental scientists at all stages of their academic careers to be involved, from distinguished professors to students.

 

The NERC investment in UK-IODP provides a diverse community of UK environmental scientists with exclusive access to cutting edge infrastructure that is used to collect samples and data from some of the most inaccessible environments on Earth. It allows scientists based at UK research institutions to engage with and lead this international programme through participation in and proposal, evaluation and leadership of IODP Expeditions. The entire archives of international scientific ocean drilling samples and data are also available for researchers to access.
