Scottish Centre for Ecology and the Natural Environment 



The event will be held at the Scottish Centre for Ecology and the Natural Environment (SCENE). 

SCENE, the Scottish Centre for Ecology and the Natural Environment, is the field station of the University of Glasgow. As part of the Institute of Biodiversity, Animal Health & Comparative Medicine, within the College of Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences, SCENE is dedicated to excellence in field research and teaching.

Situated amidst the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, the pioneering teaching and research facility has since 1946 been committed to understanding the mechanisms that govern the natural world and the impact of humans upon these.

As of spring of 2014, SCENE’s facilities have been completely replaced and greatly expanded, thanks to major donor engagement and EU investment through the INTERREG IV programme (“IBIS”-project). With sustainable construction and energy efficiency as priorities, these facilities are among the 'greenest' buildings in Scotland. SCENE have also expanded the learning and teaching facilities.

The Harry Slack Building provides state-of-the-art field teaching facilities and residential accommodation for visiting groups, including modern lecture, dining and laboratory facilities for visiting course groups of up to 43.

SCENE offers a unique teaching experience, in a remote location on the shore of the picturesque scenery of Loch Lomond. This environment, fully immersed in the nature, maximises the interaction between students and the lecturers.
