Committed to supporting Canada’s marine industry
Babcock has long history of supporting Canada’s marine industry and partnering with universities to help support the next generation of engineers. As part of this commitment, we have joined with l’École de Technologie Supérieure, and will be helping showcase the school’s engineering students and their human-powered submarine team at our booth.
The student led team, known as OMER, is among the leading human powered submarine teams in the world, winning three trophies at last year’s European International Submarine Race in Gosport, UK. The unique and innovative submarine the Omer team will be showcasing was designed from scratch, and is the first submarine to have two different propulsion systems.
Helping develop complex procurement leaders
Babcock has also teamed with the Telfer School of Management and is a founding supporter of the university’s Master of Business in Complex Project Leadership. This program is designed for leaders that are responsible for delivering large scale projects and procurement programs. This is generally relevant for Canadian public sector employees, and employees of industry partners that work with the public sector. As Major marine procurement programs are complex in nature, this program has been beneficial to project and procurement leaders within Canada’s marine industry.
