Volunteer

Although this picture may not look like volunteers do much, it's actually the opposite. From judging to providing technical support and mentoring student teams, the VOLUNTEERS make this all possible. So - thank you for volunteering your time and expertise to support the MATE ROV Competition!

"The MATE ROV Competition would not be what it is today without the help and support of its volunteers! We couldn't do what we do without them. We appreciate that they choose to donate their time and talents to the MATE ROV Competition!"

Jill Zande | MATE President & Executive Director

“MATE II develops real-world problem solving, critical thinking skills, and the kind of brainpower, talent, and commitment that will change the world for the better.”

"I have been involved with the MATE ROV competition for the past 17 years. When I encounter new, talented professionals in the field, I‘m not surprised to find they are former competitors. “Made by MATE” means something in our industry."
