ECH-SCIENCE
...underwater investigation, innovation, education
ECH-Science now has two teams of middle school and high school girls who have come together from different schools and locations. They are interested in sharing their love for science, technology, engineering, and math and like to apply new science concepts and test the scientific and engineering processes. This is accomplished by creating a functional remote-operated vehicle (ROV) design. They want to show that girls are just as capable as boys and that there is a future for them in science. The teams love to keep their minds active, be innovative, and spend time together. Sharing their love for science and engineering with others allows them to become role models for the community and inspire others in the community to get involved in underwater robotics such as the SeaPerch Challenge.
Fun Fact: The team's logo "ECH-Science" is derived from the initials of the co-founding members Ella, Claire and Hannah, representing the ROV controller, tether and the ROV.
