ABOUT
Founded in 1968 as the Oceanography Coordinating Committee (OCC) by members of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the Oceanic Engineering Society became the Council of Oceanic Engineering in 1976 before taking on its current name in 1983. The society co-hosts a domestic and international Oceans conference with the Marine Technology Society every year to foster communication between academia, government, and industry and to promote the advancement of oceanographic equipment and quality of scientific research.
From OES:
