Marine Surveying

The International Institute of Marine Surveying (IIMS) as the professional body for marine surveying, recognises the need to promote the profession and the professionals within it to the highest level.

In collaboration with the University of Portsmouth, we have developed a range of Diplomas that will provide students with the underpinning knowledge and skills that can provide a lead into a BSc (Hons) Degree and MSc Course in Maritime Studies.

The Diploma programme allows you to decide when and how long you want to study. If you travel, you can take the modules with you.

The benefit of studying with the Institute is that you become a Student Member of the Institute whilst training and you can therefore participate in all institute activities, including one day courses, seminars and conferences.

One of the most beneficial factors of distance learning study is that you apply your learning immediately. As the course progresses you can apply the knowledge, skills and expertise gained to your work.

The institute is also grateful to our industry partners and thank them for the great support and encouragement that they have given us throughout the production of the Diplomas. The quality and diversity of our partners reflects the wide appealing nature of the syllabus and how pertinent it is to this growing and exciting industry.

The IIMS is an independent, non-political organisation that aims to advance the reputation of international marine surveying by:

* Promoting professionalism and the advancement of knowledge in the profession of marine surveying
* Maintaining high professional standards decreed in a Code of Conduct
* Recognition from Government Organisations
* Putting into practice the high standards of the institute
* Conferring professional status on those who contribute to and encourage safety
* Bringing together experts
* Organising and evaluating the training of future marine surveyors.
