paper, a small-scaleunderwater robot developed for underwater archaeological applications through an EngineeringTechnology Capstone project is presented. This underwater vehicle can measure temperature,pH, dissolved oxygen, pressure, and salinity levels. Moreover, it can collect water samples forfurther lab testing during the conservation process.I. IntroductionNautical archaeologists explore waters around the world to survey for wrecks and artifacts.When worthy sites are discovered, they dive in them and proceed to extract the artifacts. Divinginto unfamiliar conditions introduces potential risks especially if environmental factors gounchecked, and currently no method to conveniently track the chemical composition of the waterin dive sites

Among thecourses some of the most relevant are:Civil Engineering Capstone Course: Example Seven Coastal Comprehensive Urban Developmentproposed projects with real constraints were assigned to senior civil engineering students to develop(analyzed and designed) multidisciplinary solutions during two consecutive semesters with theparticipation of a total of 88 undergraduate students, five faculties, five graduate students, and theparticipation of various guest speakers and lecturers on coastal engineering, resilient design andsustainability topics. The proposed sites are exposed to multi-hazards, namely: earthquakes;tsunamis; riverine and urban floods; coastal floods caused by storm surge, waves, tides, and winterocean swells; soil
