Educational Partners

 

To reach our goal of improving the nation's marine technical workforce, it is critical that the MATE Center work closely with other educational institutions. By partnering with community colleges, high schools, and four-year institutions across the nation, the MATE Center is having a definitive impact on the educational opportunities available to all students and improving the education process for all involved. Accomplishments include:
 
  • Input from industry - We have collected and validated information from industry in an effort to define the skills and abilities critical to employee success in marine fields. This information can also provide the foundation for partners to develop new and updated curricula.
     
  • Internships - Through its internship program, the MATE Center is offering exciting opportunities for students from partner institutions.
     
  • Faculty development opportunities - Workshops sponsored by the MATE Center provide an excellent venue for motivated faculty to gain new insights and skills, which can improve classroom performance.
     
  • ROV Competitions - MATE's national and regional ROV competitions provide students and faculty with hands-on learning experiences and connect them with employers and working professionals.
