The Shoalhaven Marine and Freshwater Centre (SMFC) is part of the University of Wollongong’s strategy of providing the Illawarra, South Coast and Far South Coast regions of New South Wales with access to tertiary teaching and research services that meet the regional demands, address global challenges and are of the highest international standards. The 5-year mission (2008-12) of the SMFC is to establish a centre which carries out world-class research and postgraduate teaching activities, based on the needs of the south eastern region of Australia.
