We have concluded an intense week at the CMAS International Scientific Diving Course 2025, held at the UALG Scientific Diving Center in Faro, where science, diving, and training came together in an outstanding environment.
We are proud to announce that 5 candidates successfully completed the course and received the CMAS Scientific Diver Certification. This achievement represents not only the conclusion of a demanding program, but also the acquisition of scientific skills that enable them to join international scientific diving teams around the world.
This course highlights the key role of the University of Algarve (UALG) in advancing marine scientific knowledge, and the leadership of Prof. Duarte Duarte — Course Director, UALG professor, Director of the UALG Scientific Diving Center and member of the CMAS Scientific Committee — whose vision and dedication were instrumental to the success of this edition.
A memorable week that strengthens the commitment to science, diving, and the preparation of new professionals ready to contribute to underwater research projects worldwide.
