Conditions of using a field station

14 August 2023

UC's field stations are mainly used to provide accommodation and laboratory facilities for UC teaching field courses and site-specific postgraduate or staff research. Check out the conditions of using a field station.

HOW TO APPLY

All of the UC field stations are shared facilities, and no individual user or group can expect to have the exclusive use of a field station.

The cost of use of the field stations is kept to a minimum with the understanding that all users contribute to the cleaning and care of the facilities. Where this is not the case an extra charge will be incurred.

The University reserves the right to change or cancel bookings where the facilities are required for UC site specific activities. Every effort will be made to avoid the cancellation of confirmed bookings.

The field stations at Cass and Westport are primarily used to provide accommodation and facilities for UC site specific teaching field courses, site specific research (for both postgraduate and staff).
