The Scarborough College Coastal Research Group (SCCRG) carries out projects in Coastal Hydrodynamics, Sediment Transport, Morphodynamics and Environmental Impacts in the Coastal Zone, within the Department of Physical & Environmental Sciences at UTSC. Further information on graduate programs at UTSC can be found at Master of Environmental Science (M.Env.Sc.) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.).
