The Royal Institute of Navigation (RIN) is a learned society formed in 1947. It has three main aims: to unite all those with a professional or personal interest in any aspect of navigation in one unique body; to further the development of navigation in every sphere; and to increase public awareness of both the art and science of navigation, how it has shaped the past, how it impacts our world today, and how it will affect the future.
The RIN allows members to plug into the heart of the navigation issues that matter most to them, via Special Interest Groups and Regional Branches. See which ones most appeal to you.
Whether you are a PhD, MSc, final year student, academic or post-doctoral researcher - if you are interested in positioning technology or looking at the possibility of a career within the positioning and navigation industry this one day seminar is not to be missed.
Abstract submission for this event is now CLOSED, but all students wishing to attend the day are still more than welcome. Find out more about the day and register now to secure your seat.
Meanwhile, if you're a navigation-based business, you can still book a stand at this RIN seminar and meet the best and brightest of the next generation of R&D stars. You can't miss this opportunity, because your competitors certainly won't!
Come join us; be a part of the UK's leading voice on all areas of navigation and keep up to date with the very latest leisure, commercial and academic advances.
