Welcome to Mizzou SURF
Students’ Underwater Robotics Foundation is an engineering student organization that strives to implement the knowledge of engineering courses to real life projects. Mizzou SURF designs and manufactures marine robotic projects. SURF is a competition team with an element of robotic research. We are currently hard at work preparing for the 2024 RoboSub competition at the Woollett Aquatics Center in Irvine, California!Meet the Team:
