Interspill 2025 Student Participation Programme
Allocation of student event passes for Thursday 10 April 2025
One of Interspill’s key purposes is to showcase the dynamic, fast-moving and important work of the international marine spill industry to future professional generations.
Like any industry, our future is dependent on attracting talented young professionals and providing them with exciting career paths.
Interspill is governed by a Committee, whose members are proud to hold close ties with a large number of universities and educational institutions worldwide, and are committed to creating awareness of the various areas of our work, to sharing knowledge and encouraging newcomers to join the marine spill response community.
Interspill's Student Participation Programme offers a limited number of free-of-charge event passes to relevant students, so they can attend the 10th edition and 25th anniversary year of Europe’s premier event for the international marine spill industry.

THE EVENT: Interspill is an unrivalled platform, connecting global leaders and experts in marine spill research, prevention, preparedness, response and restoration. The event includes an extensive conference programme, with expert speakers from across government and industry, as well as a dynamic exhibition area, with stands hosted by spill industry manufacturers, tech companies, consultancies and more. The conference and exhibition are further complemented by science and technical workshops, a poster exhibition and networking opportunities.
Successful student applicants will be provided with all-access event passes, valid on Thursday 10 April only.
Student attendees will be greeted by dedicated guides (senior industry volunteers), who will accompany them through the exhibition and organise introductions to fellow Committee member organisations and companies during breaks from the conference.
To be eligible: student applicants must be at least 18 years old, be currently studying in a relevant field and have a genuine interest in the area of marine spill response and/or the marine environment. Successful applicants will enter Interspill 2025 free-of-charge (pass worth €150), though they must be able to fund their own travel to/from the event.
To be considered, you must complete our online application e-form by no later than 31 January 2025.
You should attach to your e-form a supporting letter from your educational institution of no more than 400 words, confirming details of your current course and the anticipated benefit of your participation at the event to your studies.
