IMarEST Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are voluntary groups which operate to the benefit of a specialist field. SIGs are governed by a committee of members but all SIGs are open for all members to participate in as corresponding members.
SIGs are developed to act as an enabler for the creation, transfer and sharing of knowledge. They utilise 'Nexus', the IMarEST's members-only collaboration and networking platform , enabling SIG members to discuss technical topics and to address conflicts and synergies within sectors. SIGs act as a portal for members and organisations seeking to improve their knowledge about the large variety of disciplines within the marine sector.

Becoming a member of a special interest group will give you access to news and research updates which will be emailed to all members on a quarterly basis providing a platform to discuss issues with other members.
