The Titanic - the engineers’ story The IMarEST has long remembered the engineers of the Titanic. The Institute of Marine Engineers, as it was then known, funded the Engineers’ Memorial to the Titanic in Southampton, the city from which the vessel sailed.

​To mark the 114th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, Martin Shaw, former President of IMarEST and chair of the History Society, explains how members have been piecing together the story of the engineers on board.
