This week a new teaching module began with two elective courses in the CMM masters program: Pollution in the Coastal and Marine Environment and Geographical Information Systems. Both courses are taught by a new member of the CMM instructor's team, Dr. Lorraine Gray, who we are very happy to welcome to the Westfjords.

For the past six years Dr. Gray has worked for the NAFC Marine Centre where she has been responsible for taking the Shetland Marine Spatial Plan from inception through to implementation.
