STEM
NSWC IHD recently held its first STEM underwater robot event. Local high school students selected across Charles County, Maryland, were given the opportunity to participate in a three-week Naval Energetics Technology Apprentice Program (NETAP) and work alongside NSWC IHD engineers and scientists in a hands-on environment. Students were divided into three teams where they worked together to design, program, build and test robots to compete in three underwater challenge courses. Here, NSWC IHD Commanding Officer Capt. Eric Correll (center) asks NETAP students about their underwater robot.
