MTS Proudly Announces Several MTS Summer Workshop Scholarships
We are halfway through the year, and last week students from around the world competed at the MATE World Championship in Newfoundland, Canada, piloting ROVs they designed and built themselves. If you want a single image of the impact our organization can generate, that is it. Young engineers solving real ocean problems, surrounded by the industry, agency, and academic leaders who will one day hire them, fund them, and work alongside them in our field.
Hosted in St. John’s, Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada, this international competition challenges students to design, build, and deploy remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) in extreme ocean environments
Next month, students from around the world will gather in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador for the 2026 MATE ROV World Championship. On the surface, it is a robotics competition. In reality, it reflects something much larger about the future of workforce development, technology, and applied learning.
At the heart of MTS is something far more powerful than any single program, event, or initiative — it’s our member community.
