1 The VIMS Campus.

2 The VIMS mission is to achieve and maintain a national and international position as a premier coastal marine science institute. This involves making seminal advances in knowledge and understanding of marine phenomena through research, translating that knowledge into practical solutions to complex issues of societal importance and providing new generations of researchers, problem solvers, managers and educators with a marine science education of relevance and unsurpassed quality.

3 Address cutting-edge scientific questions. Develop and apply technologically advanced approaches. Communicate research results and new technologies to both professional and public audiences. Provide consultative assistance to facilitate the application of new knowledge to practical problems. Train future generations of young scientists to continue this tradition.

20 Established in 1997 to address common diseases found in Chesapeake Bay Oysters. Uses selective breeding techniques and genetic research to domesticate the native oyster for aquaculture. Provides industry with genetically superior brood stock of the native oyster. Oversees the Oyster Aquaculture Training Program which addresses the demand for trained technical and support staff in Virginia. This intensive program runs April September. Participants will learn the various stages of oyster aquaculture and all phases of the oyster life-cycle.
