Sathyabama Marine Research Station (SMRS)

Sathyabama Institute of Science and Technology has established a new Marine Research Station at Rameswaram. Our Honorable Chancellor madam Dr. Mariazeena Johnson, and President sir Dr. Marie Johnson has inaugurated the facility on 12th June 2019, through video conferencing in front of a large gathering of students and parents.

The facilities at the marine station include SCUBA diving kits, microscope, underwater camera, plankton nets, PAM fluorometer etc. Marine Station would encourage our researchers to do cutting-edge marine ecology and climate change research. The facilities will be used to manage and conserve the natural ecosystems sustainably for the benefit of the coastal communities of Gulf of Mannar and Palk Bay regions.
