REGISTRATION OPTIONS
Main Conference
There are three options for registering for the main OCEANS '15 MTS/IEEE Washington, DC conference:
- as Presenting Author,
- as Attendee (including non-presenting authors), or
- as Exhibitor.
Please read below to see which method you should use.
Plenary Session and Exhibit Hall
Both of these events are free of charge; however, you must register either online (select “Exhibits Only” registration) or at the Registration Desk to obtain a Name Badge which is required for admission.
Tutorials and Workshops
Tutorials and Workshops, held on Monday, October 19, are an "add-ons" to the main OCEANS ’15 MTS/IEEE Washington, DC conference and you may register for Tutorials and Workshops without registering for the full conference. You must however register, so please follow this link washington15.oceansconference.org to our online Registration system then select “Tutorials Only” or “Workshops Only” when prompted for the registration type.
If you are registering as a full conference attendee, you will be able to add individual tutorials and workshops to your registration.
EXPLANATION OF MAIN CONFERENCE REGISTRATION OPTIONS
Presenting Author of a Conference Paper or Student Poster
If you are the presenting author of a conference paper or of a student poster and have been notified that your abstract has been accepted, please follow the Author Dashboard login instructions contained in your acceptance email and on the Author's Instructions page washington15.oceansconference.org/index.php/program/author-instructions.
These instructions will take you through the paper upload process, including copyright, PDF eXpress, and Paper Registration. You will be registering for the conference as part of the Paper Registration process, so please do not use the Attendee registration page linked in the next section. Student Poster Contest authors will receive a free full registration, but still need to go through the regular author registration process.
Conference Attendees Not Submitting Papers or Student Posters
Conference attendees who are not submitting papers or student posters register here washington15.oceansconference.org. Registration is required even if you plan to attend only the Exhibition or the Plenary Session of OCEANS '15 MTS/IEEE Washington, DC.
Registration is also required for Tutorials and Workshops and other conference events.
Exhibitors
For Exhibitor Registration, please follow this link washington15.oceansconference.org/register/. Please note you will need the Password forwarded to you by Sue Kingston in order to register.
If you need a VISA
Full Registration attendees, who need a letter from the conference to obtain a visa, will be given the option during the registration process to indicate this need. Once your paid registration has been confirmed, you will be able to download your personalized letter.
