The goal of this challenge-based engineering project was to explore if a team (a) with just a general background inengineering (role filled by undergraduate students), (b) modest resourcing and (c) in a relativelyshort period of time, could assemble an underwater vehicle to perform a specified mission. Theproject culminated with the operational demonstration of the underwater vehicle in a dive lagoonand the acquired engineering skills. Ultimately, we believe this project uniquely exposedundergraduate students, including minorities, to challenging real-world ocean engineeringproblems so as prepare or

As an example, it uses one project from the South Carolina State Ports Authority. Theproject is the extension of a commercial break bulk cargo wharf at the Georgetown Terminal inGeorgetown, SC,The South Carolina State Ports Authority (Ports Authority) operates six waterfront sites thathandle containerized cargo, bulk cargo and break-bulk cargo.

and creating a valid ship structural model, it ispossible to incorporate its use into general naval architecture courses without the requirement tobecome an expert in structural finite element analysis. The use of MAESTRO in the graduateprogram affords the students greater insight into ship structural response to load effects that arenot always accurately analyzed by current manual methods (simple prismatic beam analysis). Inthe undergraduate program, the students use MAESTRO to develop a structural model as part oftheir senior ship design project. There has been difficulty in the undergraduate program in thedevelopment of a whole ship model, but the software allows the mid-portion of the ship structureto be easily created. In both the

autonomy could begin making certain vessels unmanned in thenear future [1]. Many of these projects are currently in the demonstration phase, such as theFalco, an unmanned ferry from Finferries [2]. However, many in the maritime community feelthat there are certain applications, such as non-electric vessels, that will require a trained crewonboard [3].This uncertainty means that academic institutions are hesitant to fund new advanced trainingprograms until they are certain what they should look like. For example, as autonomy increaseson vessels, mariners could either focus on traditional computer engineering skills such as codingand data management of the digital twin – a virtual simulation of a vessel used for increasingefficiency and early fault

Introducing students to possible fields of study thatthey were previously unaware of such as marine engineering, ocean engineering, and navalarchitecture, has the potential to develop the next generation of professionals, academics,engineers, scientists and industry leaders. Most important, however, is the potential to open theeyes of a student to a larger world of study within the STEM curricula.This paper will discuss one innovative approach to teaching science and engineering conceptsthrough the use of underwater robotics.

One such project, titled “Reduced Ship’sCrew by Virtual Presence (RSVP),” was funded by the Office of Naval Research in 1998 (Seman,2006). This project focused on the development of a wireless sensor network that can be used fornaval ships, and included government engineers, who wanted to change the deck plate wrenchturning system.

discussed in the Assessment Methods section of this paper.For all of the projects in the sequence, there is a heavy component of background research andcoordination that must be performed before designs are finalized at the end of the Fall semesterfollowed by prototyping and testing in the Spring semester. The complex nature of the maritimeenvironment means that beyond the typical research into existing solutions, the students must doadditional research to find out the constraints for their projects. For example, the waterfrontcleaning robot in 2018-2019 needed to filter out garbage of the correct size based on whatcommon garbage is found in the water.

1, there are many parameters that affect the overall cycle efficiency. Some ofthese, like Brayton cycle pressure ratio and boiler steam pressure, are under the designer’scontrol. Others are fixed by external constraints. For instance, the gas turbine exit pressure isconstrained by atmospheric pressure, which may vary, but it is not under the designer’s control.Similarly, the saturation temperature in the condenser is controlled by the seawater temperature,which can vary considerably from place to place and season to season. An important part of thedesign project is the exploration of how these parameters influence the cycle efficiency andtherefore the cost of fuel to produce the required power.For various combinations of parameter values

as soon as possible.Getting students to work on a project outside the classroom is a daunting task for an ROV teamadvisor. Too often students are in the position of passive spectators either in a lecture hall on theInternet. In these situations students often receive information without the need to either assessthe quality of the information based on their knowledge and intuition from real-worldexperience, or decide on the importance of the information in the context of the task at hand. Agood way to change this dynamic is to make the students “get off their chairs” and find out forthemselves. For example a student may ask what happens if a 6V rated motor is powered at12V. Rather than simply say the motor will run fast and burn out, it is

For example, a demand for these craft has been demonstrated by a recentBroad Agency Announcement of the Office of Naval Research.1 Due to complexity oftechnologies associated with high-speed motion at the air-sea interface and complex physics ofmulti-phase flows, traditional rigorous R&D approaches require enormous resources andsophisticated facilities.

Prior research has demonstrated that a wide range of students with varying abilities and skill levelscan benefit from the flipped classroom format, but the benefits are not uniformly distributed among thegeneral STEM student population. For example, studies [2, 3] have suggested that medical studentsrespond most favorably—reporting heightened enjoyment, decreased boredom and a large gain inknowledge and skills—because the students naturally enjoy collaborative and project-based learning inhands-on environments.
