With 70% of the earth’s surface covered by oceans, and 90% of the world’s trade carried by ship, it’s hardly surprising that there are lots of related career opportunities, especially if you’re interested in science, technology and engineering!

Our oceans and seas are of great importance – not only are they used for shipping, they are also important for sources of food, raw materials, energy and leisure.

IMarEST has produced information introducing you to some of the exciting careers available in marine science, engineering and technology.
