The '''Associazione di Ingegneria Offshore e Marina''' (AIOM) is an Italian non-profit association that seeks to further the knowledge and study of [[marine engineering]]. The association was founded in [[Milan]] in 1982<ref>{{Cite book | url = https://books.google.com/books?id=ubwYAQAAIAAJ | title = Coastal Engineering, 1992: Proceedings of the Twenty-Third International Conference, October 4-9, 1992, Venice, Italy | isbn = 9780872629332 | last1 = Edge | first1 = Billy L | date = 1993-01-01| publisher = American Society of Civil Engineers }}</ref> to create a forum for scientists and engineers involved in [[Maritime industry|maritime]] professional activities. AIOM organizes congresses, conferences, seminars and other events to promote the continuing education and advancement of industry professionals. The organization has cooperated with several national and international bodies during its activities (e.g.[[ASME]],<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.asmeconferences.org/OMAE2013/CoSponsors.cfm|title=ASME 2013 32nd International Conference on Ocean, Offshore and Arctic Engineering - OMAE2013|website=www.asmeconferences.org|access-date=2018-03-19}}</ref> [[International Association for Life Cycle Civil Engineering|IALCCE]]<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.ialcce08.org/Sponsors.html|title=Sponsors|last=Biondini|first=Fabio|website=www.ialcce08.org|access-date=2018-03-19}}</ref>) and celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2012.
