The Society for Underwater Technology (SUT) is an international learned society of marine technology with headquarters in London, England that was founded in 1966. There are branches in Aberdeen (Scotland), Houston (USA), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), Newcastle (England), Perth (Australia), London (England), Melbourne (Australia), Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), Norway (Bergen), and China (Beijing), and new branches in early stages of development in Halifax (Canada), Qingdao (China), Cairo (Egypt) and Paris (France). == Goals == SUT promotes the further understanding of the underwater environment and encourages: * Cross-fertilisation and dissemination of ideas, experience and information between workers in academic research, applied research and technology, industry and government * Development of techniques and tools to explore, study and exploit the oceans * Proper economic and sociological usage of resources in and beneath the oceans * Further education of scientists and technologists to maintain high standards in marine science and technology. SUT covers all aspects of technology applied to diving technology and physiology, submersible design and operation, naval architecture, underwater acoustics, subsea systems, geology, geophysics, marine resource exploitation, oceanography, environmental studies, pollution and marine biology. Evening lectures are organised by most of the branches. Training courses are offered to industry, in particular "Subsea Awareness" courses, and the society also hosts a "Registered Subsea Engineer" scheme. Education about the marine world, in particular marine industry, is a strong focus for the society and it supports a number of studentships through awards and an "Educational Support Fund". In 2013 SUT Council voted to incorporate the Engineering Committee on Oceanic Resources into SUT. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Society for Underwater Technology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
