The Coastal and Marine Research Centre (CMRC) is a key research centre within University College Cork (UCC). It is part of the Environmental Research Institute (ERI) and the Maritime and Energy Research Campus and Commercial Cluster (MERC3) and is based in lower Cork Harbour on the Irish National Naval Base, Haulbowline Island. CMRC carries out applied and basic research and also works on commercial contracts with government agencies and industry. Centre staff teach on a number of undergraduate and postgraduate degree courses in UCC and we run tailored short training courses for industry professionals.

Insight Multimedia were commissioned to build the new Coastal & Marine Research Centre website in January 2011. The website took seven months to build as the site required tailored specific backend system to allow for CMRC staff to file reports and photographs while out in the field or research. The site also takes feeds from a research report and publications database.
