The IMarEST is the professional membership organisation for marine science, engineering and technology professionals.

The Institute promotes the scientific development of engineering, science & technology in the marine environment, and supports the learning, development, advancement and professional recognition of its 15,000 members worldwide.

IMarEST Membership is open to everyone associated with the marine, coastal, and offshore world across scientific, engineering and technological disciplines and applications.

We have categories of membership for everyone with an interest in the marine world - for those who are seeking professional recognition (Corporate Membership), and for those who are currently studying or just starting out in their careers or who simply have a general interest (non-Corporate Membership) in the Institute, its work, its members, events, publications or facilities.

Note: There are no academic requirements or pre-requisites for membership of the IMarEST. There is, however, an academic requirement if you are seeking registration.
