The AusYCSEC mission is to connect, foster, and showcase the next generation of coastal scientists and engineers in Australasia.

This conference brings together those working across the broad remit of coastal geoscience, engineering, and management — a field that explores the physical processes and environmental changes occurring at the land–sea interface. It encompasses geomorphology, sedimentology, oceanography, subdisciplines of engineering, and natural resource management, among many others.

AusYCSEC is designed for the next generation of coastal scientists and engineers. Whether you’re an undergraduate student taking your first steps into coastal research, a postgraduate student advancing your knowledge, or an early- to mid-career researcher establishing your place in the field, this conference provides the space to connect, collaborate, and grow.

We welcome participants from all sectors — academia, government, private industry, and not-for-profit, and invite everyone contributing to the coastal domain to share their ideas and innovations shaping our shores.

Experienced researchers and academics are also encouraged to attend in a mentoring and supporting capacity. Your guidance and engagement with emerging scientists and engineers play a vital role in building a connected and thriving coastal community, and we are confident that the breadth and quality of emerging research will make this a rewarding experience for attendees at every career stage.
