The Maritime Immersion Camp is an annual opportunity open exclusively to South Australian students in Years 9 - 12. This week long program is offered in partnership with the Naval Shipbuilding College and Le Fevre High School (Maritime Education) and includes an all expenses paid week of marine and maritime activities across South Australia and the AMC in Tasmania.
This hands on, practical camp will have you driving vessels and boats, exploring autonomous underwater vehicles, entering the simulator and driving a virtual ship, meeting university students and lecturers, taking on fun engineering activities, and learning how to survive at sea in a lifeboat amongst a simulated storm, plus so much more!

Offshore wind has been earmarked as critical if Australia is to decarbonise and meet its net zero emissions targets, and Victoria has a particularly ambitious target of generating about 20 percent of its energy needs from offshore wind within a decade.
Keen to capitalise, a pipeline of industry heavyweights have announced their plans to develop offshore wind projects in Gippsland, which is on course to be home to Australia's first offshore wind project.

The $12 million UniWave200 unit was constructed in Launceston and extensively tested at the Australian Maritime College.
The UniWave200 generates sustainable electricity from the ocean.
It converts the energy in ocean waves into clean and zero emission electricity.
A larger unit can be made that generates five times the amount of energy and could be placed off any coastline anywhere in the world.
