The Scottish Centre for Ecology and the Natural Environment (SCENE) is the foremost field station for research and teaching in ecology and environmental sciences in Scotland.
SCENE is run by the Institute of Biodiversity, Animal Health & Comparative Medicine within the College of Medical, Veterinary & Life Sciences of the University of Glasgow.
Situated amidst the spectacular natural beauty of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, SCENE is ideally positioned to support cutting edge research. Currently, research is funded from a broad range of sources, including the UK and European research councils. Our
undergraduate and postgraduate education programmes provide practical and theoretical field-based teaching to the highest standards for the next generation of ecologists and environmental scientists.
We are currently expanding the capacity of SCENE with a £7 M development of new research and teaching facilities. To find out more about this work click here.
