OCEANS 2026 Monterey Extends Workshop & Tutorial Proposal Deadline

IEEE/OES OCEANS 2026 Monterey has extended the deadline for Workshop & Tutorial proposals to Tuesday, May 26, 2026. The conference runs Monday through Thursday, September 21-24, 2026, in Monterey, California. For the first time, organizers are introducing a structured proposal format aimed at encouraging innovative, forward-looking, and interactive session ideas. Workshops are ideal for in-depth discussions and collaborative input on timely themes, while tutorials provide a venue to teach tools, benchmarks, methodologies, or systems to the community. The event targets professionals in ocean science, engineering, technology, autonomy, AI/ML, sensing, data systems, and related fields.

These sessions offer valuable opportunities for in-depth technical instruction, discussion of emerging topics, and cross-sector collaboration across academia, industry, and government. Workshops and tutorials will take place on Monday, September 21, allowing attendees to then attend ROSCon Global 2026 in Toronto from September 22-24. The extended deadline gives researchers and practitioners more time to craft proposals that advance ocean technology and AI/ML applications.
