Ocean Engineering
Together IEEE TryEngineering and the IEEE Ocean Engineering Society are inspiring the oceanic engineers of tomorrow!
Ocean Engineering has as many areas and fields to explore as the vast ocean itself. Some Ocean Engineers have a background in Electrical Engineering, others in Mechanical, and others in Oceanography. Just as the ocean connects all of the earth, Ocean Engineers bring a variety of backgrounds together and connect them all to the ocean. Ocean Engineers could work on anything from creating autonomous underwater vehicles to studying underwater sound signals, or inventing devices that track and protect endangered fish. And that’s just a few!
