Partner with TKS for the Mate Rov Competition. For the fourth year in a row, The KAUST School is proud to host the Mate Rov Regional Competition, and we need YOU!
What is Mate Rov?
MATE ROV refers to the Marine Advanced Technology Education (MATE) Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) Competition, a global underwater robotics challenge where student teams design, build, and operate ROVs to complete tasks modeled on real-world ocean workplace scenarios. The program teaches STEM skills, encourages entrepreneurial thinking by having students act as mock companies, and exposes participants to technical careers through its multi-level class structure for K-12 through university students.
This year’s Regional Competition for Saudi Arabia will be held on April 17 at TKS.
