Abstract
The IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society (OES) has completed forty-one years of active engagement: the initial eight years in the form of the Oceanography Coordinating Committee (OCC), followed by seven years as the Council of Oceanic Engineering (COE), then the past twenty-six years in the form of an IEEE society. This paper briefly reviews the growth of the society from national to global in terms of the organizational structure, the flagship OCEANS Conference venues, chapters, technology committees, symposia and workshops, student activities and recognition of outstanding contributors.
