YCSEC 2024

YCSEC brings together early-career researchers and practitioners, such as PhD students, postdoc researchers and recently qualified professionals, with expertise and interests in the coastal environment. It provides a welcoming and supporting environment to present and discuss research and share good practice. It is a great opportunity to interact with a small community of researchers, allowing you to expand your knowledge and network.

This conference welcomes delegates who are in the early stages of their career.  This includes graduate practitioners and post-graduate students (MRes, MSc and PhD Students). And we are keen to highlight that not all of us are ‘young’ and that there is no age restriction for attendance at this conference.

The interdisciplinary audience and subject areas are designed to promote connections and integration between young coastal scientists and engineers focusing on both the physical and biological processes within the coastal environment. In the past, this has included presentations on a diverse selection of topics, such as, but not limited to: marine renewables, flooding and climate change, coastal erosion and morphological modelling, and the effects of pollution.
