This project is presenting a team of community college students, four-year college students, and technical high school students with a real marine engineering problem to be solved over the course of a one-semester elective laboratory engineering course. The four-year college students are acting at the project engineers; the community college students are acting as a commercial laboratory testing facility; and the high school students are the engineering technicians. The project being presented to the students involves the development of an underwater marking applicator which can be operated by the grappling arm of the submersible vessel ALVIN. When this vessel is on an undersea geophysics mission, there is a need for making markings or attaching tags to rocks of geophysical interest. Participation in a technical project of this nature is providing the students with experiences that enhance their technical knowledge and abilities. Institutions involved in this project are Upper Cape Cod Regional Technical High School, Bristol Community College, and the Massachusetts Maritime Academy in partnership with the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.

这个项目是呈现一个团队的社区大学生，四年制大学生，和技术高中的学生与一个真实的海洋工程问题要解决的过程中，一个学期的选修实验室工程课程。四年制大学生担任项目工程师;社区大学生担任商业实验室测试设施;高中生担任工程技术人员。向学生们介绍的项目涉及开发一种水下标记涂敷器，可由潜水船ALVIN的抓臂操作。当该船执行海底地球物理学使命时，需要在具有地球物理学意义的岩石上做标记或贴标签。参与这种性质的技术项目为学生提供了增强他们的技术知识和能力的经验。参与该项目的机构有上科德角地区技术高中、布里斯托社区学院和与伍兹霍尔海洋研究所合作的马萨诸塞州海事学院。
