I am writing on behalf of the new Warwick Submarine Team. Thank you for your continued support of the project.

Niru Dorrian, the IMarEST Ambassador to the UN Ocean Decade, provides his latest update on the Institute's contribution to the Decade...

Of all the outputs of Aberdeen’s prolific shipbuilding industry, St Sunniva may have been the most beautiful, combining the elegance of a luxury yacht with the practicality of a passenger and cargo ship. But as IMarEST’s History Society reveals, her story was to end in tragedy.

For marine engineering cadets, IMarEST membership provides valuable connections to the wider maritime community and broadens career horizons

Offshore wind has become a cornerstone of the global energy transition, offering large scale renewable electricity generation and supporting ambitious net zero targets. But can the supply chain keep up?

From berth planning and predictive maintenance to fuel optimisation and regulatory compliance, agentic AI is changing how maritime operations are managed. The challenge for the industry is to turn greater automation into lasting competitive advantage.

Captain Mo Magzoub OBE FIMarEST explains why change is often harder than it appears. 

Sea ice is retreating and traffic is rising, but designers and classification experts say vessels still have to be built for the worst conditions they might meet. Open water, shifting ice, and extreme cold all pull a design in different directions.

Cate Waggoner describes her experiences aboard a research expedition, which was made possible through the support of an IMarEST Student Bursary.

Smart ships promise safer, greener operations, but their success will depend as much on competent seafarers as on the technology

Hydrophones, aircraft, satellites and seabed cameras generate more data than scientists can review by hand. From real-time orca alerts to plankton counts at sea, AI is speeding up the analysis.

Canadian researchers have developed a rating system that measures vessels’ underwater noise during normal operations and compares each ship with others of its type, giving owners a clearer route to quieter shipping.

Onboard carbon capture could help existing ships cut emissions, but fitting it to vessels never designed for it raises hard questions about space, stability, energy and delivery.

A fatal boiler explosion aboard the Manhattan Bridge revealed how unfamiliar fuels can introduce unfamiliar risks.

Liam Talbot, co-chair of our MASS Special Interest Group discusses the challenges in taking new IMO rules from policy to practice.
