Lists with vendor links available at [5].CurriculumAs described in [1], the original curriculum developed for this program consisted of three structuralengineering lessons, three aero/hydrodynamics lessons, two biologically inspired propulsionlessons, one lesson on system design and integration, and one lesson on swarm dynamics andagent-based modeling. The developed curriculum utilized components of the BLIMP kit, or theBLIMPs themselves, to teach students about fish and robots, from how they are built to how theymove. Content was aligned to Next Generation Science Standards [6] and

activity that includes STEMdevelopment is widespread in North America. An umbrella organization, the Teaching WithSmall Boats Alliance [3], serves as a clearing house of relevant information. The organizationhas hundreds of programs and individuals as members and “is committed to sharing knowledge,ideas, and best practices about leadership and program development, hands-on building projects,boat use, and integration of maritime-based lessons into school curricula.” These programsprimarily focus on K-12 or adults.Course Description and Construction RequirementsWhile the goals and populations served for the project differ between the two institutions, thecourses share many similarities, primarily in the course requirements, product, and

ability to design,implement, and troubleshoot ML systems will soon be in high demand [1]. The time is now formaritime educational institutions to adapt accordingly to maintain relevance and continuegraduating in-demand maritime professionals.In this paper, we present an undergraduate maritime-focused course in ML. The main componentof our course, and the major contribution of this paper, is our design of several maritime-specificmini coding projects for addressing course learning objectives and ABET criteria, as well asengaging students. The following three components comprise the programming environment ofeach mini project:• Colab: A product of Google that allows users to write and execute Python code through the browser, integrating it
