Twenty-six pre-engineering students from eight Ventura and Oxnard area high schools recently toured the Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center/Ocean Facilities Department to explore how engineering challenges are met in an ocean environment. The students visited an ROV (remotely operated vehicle) pool, having the opportunity to steer "SeaBotix," as well as pressure vessels used to simulate deep ocean conditions. The tour is part of the Navy's efforts to promote local STEM education. http://www.vcstar.com/news/2012/apr/04/pre-engineering-students-peek-into-navys-view-of/
