Neil Hutchinson

Neil is a broadly trained marine ecologist based at our Singapore Campus.

He is a member of:

• The Tropical Futures Institute (TFI)
• The Centre for Sustainable Tropical Fisheries and Aquaculture (CSTFA)

His main, continuing, research objectives lie in the examination of interactions between species in intertidal and shallow coastal marine systems and how such relationships are influenced by environmental factors. His research focuses on how fish utilise coastal habitats, such as mangroves and seagrass beds, and he is currently examining the ecology of mesopredators such as bamboo sharks.

Neil has worked at a wide range of institutions including universities, government research laboratories and NGO’s, providing research services and information to a variety of stakeholders. He advocates research that has direct implications for conservation biology and fisheries management.

I'm very keen to develop authentic learning experiences that allow students to put the concepts that they learn in a classroom into practice. Enabling a student to develop their knowledge and experience through hands-on learning, is in my experience key to preparing them for a professional life once they graduate.
