July saw over 70, year 12 students visit and stay at the University to learn about Ship Science.
The Design Triathlon Summer School saw students design, build, test and race speedboats – learning all about hydrostatics, hydrodynamics and the design process. While the Marine headstart course saw students design, build and test tidal turbines – learning all about renewables, ship science and marine engineering.
Thanks to all those or participated and helped out over the week – it was great fun for all – just see the pictures and videos!
