Strategic Carbon has developed long-term relationships with some of the world’s premier institutions of higher education, research, and entrepreneurial commerce in the fields of ocean science, technology and engineering, energy, and environmental management. These universities will enable Strategic Carbon to ensure the highest levels of quality in scientific research, testing, and monitoring across the spectrum of services the company offers.

In addition, the affiliations will embrace opportunities for global students to participate in the basic and applied science, technology advances, commercial development, and business incubation of a cutting-edge scientific enterprise.
