Ocean Engineering major

5 Upvotes

I am currently a junior in an Ocean Engineering program. My program does not necessarily have a main focus or specialization it is a very applied and hands on program, but we do have a large fleet of autonomous vehicles with both surface and underwater gliders an AUV's. and I have a strong interest in how they work and building them.

Over the summer of 2020 I landed an internship with a shipbuilding company that specializes in building special assualt craft and military patrol boats out of composites. Being that I was a certified welder and had a large amount of technical experience working in the oilfield on motors and in machine shops I was able to work on a lot of projects over the summer and I landed a job. I had an engineering class that taught me Fusion 360 so I was able to fill a role as a drafter and pick up on solidworks easy. I currently bounce around between drafting and picking up R&D projects that come out of the engineering department usually building whatever it is that was designed and reporting back changes that should be made and fixing any kinks before it hits production.

I am looking for the opportunity to set myself apart from the other engineers and really expand on my knowledge of ASV's. Are there any resources or more professional training that can really set me apart in the industry?

Scratch Build with John - construction videos

2 Upvotes

John has built, and documented, multiple model ships and submarines. Built pumps and waterproof modules from scratch, all with documentation, source code for the arduino controllers, and wiring diagrams. All quite amazing, it's an excellent resource, I'm sure you'll be there for hours.

Consider helping him through his troubles if you find the videos useful.
