Administrative history
The site of the Bamfield Marine Sciences Centre (BMSC) was originally a Pacific Cable Board cable station. In 1968, the National Research Council asked the universities of British Columbia, Victoria, Calgary, Alberta and Simon Fraser University to identify the best location for a marine biology station, and Bamfield was chosen. The five universities formed the Western Canadian Universities Marine Biological Society (WCUMBS). The station began operations as a laboratory in 1972. In 2001, the name was changed from the Bamfield Marine Station (BMS) to Bamfield Marine Sciences Centre (BMSC).
