Our finalists are hard at work on their group design projects. These projects, worth a third of their marks in the final year are the culmination of the MEng degree programmes. This year the results of all the projects will be on display in our Faculty’s first end of year design show on the 12th June. If you would like an invite please contact us for further details. As the projects start coming to completion we will be posting information at to their achievements.
One GDP project this year – Team Fortitude  are building an autonomous surface vessel with the capability of crossing the Atlantic. Such vessels will become ever more common and provide some exciting applied naval architecture and marine engineering challenges as well as enhancing our Maritime Robotics  interests as we look into the challenge of increased use of autonomous systems in Maritime Shipping.
