We're breaking the team in groups depending on interests and range of skills:
- Programming
- Drafting
- Electronics
- Mechanics/assembling
- Writing
- Historians

The Underwater Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) project started in Fall 2011. The goal was to design and assemble a Underwater ROV for the MATE ROV Competition. Since the Annual MATE ROV Competition takes place on Spring, the ROV group had the whole semester to research and prepare a first prototype of an underwater rover. After much research, the project was stalled by insufficient time and team members. Hence, PCC Engineering Club did not participate on the 2012 MATE ROV Competition.
On Spring 2012 and Fall 2012, the project was led by David Harbottle. The group was able to design and assemble a first prototype. The first field test on water took place in the middle of Fall 2012.
The PCC Engineering Club is committed to participate on the 2013 MATE ROV Competition. The missions, tasks and rules for the competition are usually posted by the end of December. All the same, the regional competition takes place will take place in the middle of May 2013. Hence, the club will have approximately 5 months to design, assemble, modify and train before the regional's.
Due to the restricted time to prepare for the competition, the project will require dedicated, committed and talented people to pull this off. All the same, the project will require all the help possible, so, even if you don't have any engineering skills, you can still contribute with the project. The project will require knowledge of electronics, CAD, drafting, machining, programming, math, physics, writing, art and many other areas. The only requirement to join this project is to have a truly interest in the project because you will have to dedicate a lot of time and energy for it. Nevertheless, by participating in this project, you will put in practice your skills, knowledge and communication skills by working on teams. In addition, this is the first time the PCC Engineering Club participates in this competition, so you will be making history, too.
If you are interested in joining the group, don't doubt to contact us.
