About

Eduard Muntaner is an engineer and educator dedicated to democratizing access to marine technology through hands-on, team-based learning. His primary research focuses on educational robotics, particularly the development of low-cost, sustainable Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) for STEM outreach. Muntaner’s major contribution is the creation of the EDUROV program, a pioneering initiative that provides schools with an affordable, replicable platform for building and piloting underwater robots. This work, detailed in his 2021 paper “EDUROVs: A Low Cost and Sustainable Remotely Operated Vehicles Educational Program,” has been cited 4 times and serves as a model for integrating engineering and environmental science into secondary education. Earlier, his 2015 paper on the “R2B2” team-based workshop—reporting six years of experience engaging young students in India—also garnered 4 citations, highlighting his sustained impact on global STEM education. By combining rigorous engineering design with accessible pedagogy, Muntaner has empowered hundreds of students to explore robotics, oceanography, and problem-solving, making him a key figure in the movement to inspire the next generation of marine engineers and scientists.
