Events

SNAME hosts hundreds of events every year, from the Society-wide Annual Meeting, to international symposia, to section gatherings.  Beyond venues for personal exchange, networking, and fellowship, SNAME events regularly feature state-of-the-art technical presentations and first-looks at the latest papers and presentations.  

SNAME Calendar


 

SNAME's online calendars are your hub for information on all SNAME meetings, large and small.  The Society-wide calendar is the place to view all events for the Society.  Members who are logged-in can see events posted by chairs for their sections, committees, and panels.  All SNAME calendar event postings can include links to meeting relevant meeting documents.

Most SNAME microsites utilize a local calendar displaying events of specific interest to the page's hosts.  Check the calendar links of Section Microsites for more information about scheduled local events. 

SNAME Annual Meeting



Throughout its century-plus history, the SNAME Annual Meeting & Expo has been the industry's premier "meeting of the minds."  Held every fall in a three city/ three year rotation, the Annual Meeting is the only industry event that includes all the diverse technical interests and professional specialties in naval architecture, marine and ocean engineering and related disciplines.  The program has also expanded to include a full Student Program, as well as other technical meetings and sessions, such as the NSRP Ship Production Symposium and the SOCP (Ship Operations Cooperative Program).
A full year's membership in SNAME is included for non-member attendees upon completion of an application and approval by the Applications Committee.  

The 2012 Annual Meeting & Expo will be held on October 24-26 at the Rhode Island Convention Center and Westin Hotel in Providence, RI.  Visit the website or contact Alana Anderson at alana@sname.org/ (201) 499-5066 for more information on the program, Student Program, sponsorship opportunities and other details.  To exhibit, contact Rob Howard at howard@marinelink.com/ (561) 732-4368.

The 2011 meeting was held in Houston, TX on November 16-18.  Visit the 2011 Annual Meeting Recap page. In 2010, SNAME took the meeting for the first time to Bellevue, WA on November 3-5 and you can view the recap page for more details.
