Aim of the Underwater Muse project is the promotion of the underwater archaeological heritage through the creation of underwater tours and virtual reconstructions of the sites.

The creation of a interactive and explorable tool will allow the sharing in the net of data about the Adriatic archaeological contexts and of GIS data bases (WP 3). Digital surveys will be processed to produce 3D visualizations to be used in the dissemination and in the education, also with the virtual reality (WP 4). The research fellow will have also to co-organize a workshop to present the methodology and to train partners and stakeholders in documentation, in modelling, in GIS and in Virtual Reality

Sr. Data Exploitation Analysts

I know 4 underwater archaeologists who work here and have this job. Don’t overlook this post.

https://careers.oceaneering.com/global/en/job/15521/Sr-Data-Exploitation-Analyst

Oceaneering is a global provider of engineered services and products, primarily to the offshore energy industry. We develop products and services for use throughout the lifecycle of an offshore oilfield, from drilling to decommissioning. We operate the world’s premier fleet of work class ROVs. Additionally, we are a leader in offshore oilfield maintenance services, umbilicals, subsea hardware, and tooling. We also use applied technology expertise to serve the defense, entertainment, material handling, aerospace, science, and renewable energy industries.

Oceaneering Technologies (OTECH) performs a wide range of engineering services and products for unique marine systems for military and commercial customers. OTECH innovates wherever practical rather than inventing making it “faster to field” than others in its industry; the typical development/delivery cycle for complex mechanical, hydraulic, electrical systems is often completed in 12-15 months. Technical capabilities span the entire engineering spectrum. These skills have been demonstrated in successfully delivered systems, including Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs); Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs); saturation diving systems; surface and sub-surface vehicle launch and recovery systems; advanced offshore cranes; and life support systems.

The Senior Data Exploitation Analyst participates in all phases of data collection, processing, and reporting at a customer site in Suitland/Camp Spring, MD. The primary responsibilities of this role are to acquire, analyze, compile, evaluate, and review data for use in standard products, non-standard products, and/or data holdings in support of mission requirements.

Ocean Exploration Trust Posts/Internships

http://www.oceanexplorationtrust.org/education

Inspired by the thousands of letters he received from students seeking an opportunity to join an expedition following his discovery of Titanic’s final resting place, Dr. Robert Ballard’s vision for the mission of the Ocean Exploration Trust was that it would increasingly connect exploratory expeditions beyond the scientific community and into classrooms and living rooms. His goal was, and continues to be, to encourage the next generation of explorers to follow educational pathways into the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) workforce.

Role modeling has been the keystone of OET’s educational and outreach program since its inception. Each year, members of the Corps of Exploration — which includes crew members, to students and lead scientists that sail aboard E/V Nautilus — come from academia, industry, schools, federal agencies, military, and nonprofits. As we highlight each member of the Corps aboard the vessel to global audiences, we aim to show that the breadth of vocations and pathways possible within STEM-related disciplines is vast. We also strive to ensure that the demographics of the Corps — specifically, representation of women and historically underrepresented minorities in STEM — reflects the diversity of the United States, allowing a greater number of children to recognize opportunities for themselves in these career pathways.

While emphasizing role modeling and mentoring, OET has developed a suite of programs over the last decade to engage educators and students of all ages through a multifaceted approach including: (1) outreach to inspire the online-public through 24/7 connectivity to explorers at sea; (2) immersive, hands-on opportunities for students and educators to participate in E/V Nautilus expeditions shoulder-to-shoulder with professionals in the field (3) professional development opportunities for educators on shore; and (4) ocean exploration-themed STEM curricular materials.

OET’s at-sea education programs for the 2020 Nautilus expedition season are open to individuals who hold a United States or Canadian passport or are eligible to obtain one upon program selection.  Participants must plan to live in the United States or Canada for the duration of the expedition season (June – December 2020).
