Underwater Robotics Workshop for Students (grades 5-12), Teachers, & Parents
Saturday, November 12, 2016
Please note both sessions are full. We are taking information for a waiting list
The Seymour Marine Discovery Center at UC Santa Cruz in partnership with the Marine Advanced Technology Education (MATE) Center of Monterey Peninsula College is pleased to offer a workshop designed to teach students in grades 5-12, and their teachers or parents, how to build underwater remotely operated vehicles (ROVs). Learn how to incorporate marine science, technology, and physical science concepts into your curriculum by spending a day at the pool building an ROV!
The workshop will introduce participants to the MATE Center’s ROV program and explain how students can participate in the annual ROV contest held each spring. Students and adults will also have the opportunity to design, build, and test their own ROV using simple, affordable materials.
The workshop will be held at the on-campus swimming pool at UC Santa Cruz. Morning session (10 AM-12 PM) or afternoon session (1-3 PM) available. There is no fee to attend, however, reservations are required. Please complete the form below to register your group. Note: Due to the popularity of this workshop, there is a limit of 5 participants total (adults and students) per school/organization.
Currently the morning and afternoon sessions are full. You can register to be added to the waiting list for the morning session if teams withdraw.
Thank you!
