Research Thrusts
MMC strives to be the center of excellence for marine science research in the region and is dedicated to the sustainable development of the coastal and marine environment that will:
- work on scientific and environmental problems related to coastal resources in the region;
- develop sound and lasting resource management policies for the coastal marine areas of Northern Mindanao by forging linkages and networks among stakeholders in local government, the private sector and civil society;
- develop information education campaign materials (IEC) for specific advocacies that are urgently needed to manage our coastal marine resources; and
assist the university in formulating and implementing sustainable, community-based development strategies and measures in its social outreach work among coastal communities.
