AISTER welcomes students from the Naval and Ocean Engineering Degree during their Technical Visit 2026

Last Wednesday, we had the pleasure of welcoming third- and fourth-year students from the Naval and Ocean Engineering Degree (INO) to our facilities as part of the Technical Visits Programme 2026 organised by the Official College of Naval Architects and Ocean Engineers. The visit formed part of an educational tour of several shipyards and companies within the naval sector in the Pontevedra and Vigo area, aimed at bringing future professionals closer to the industrial reality of the industry.

Throughout the day, the students were accompanied by Professor and member Raúl Villa Caro and were welcomed by our Managing Director, Javier Rasilla, who introduced them to AISTER’s activities and shared our vision for innovation and development within the naval industry.

The visit began in the technical office, where AISTER’s Technical Director, Francisco Pita, presented part of the work we carry out in naval engineering and design. Students gained first-hand insight into how client ideas and requirements are transformed into practical technical solutions, as well as the planning and development processes that form part of our team’s daily work.

The tour then continued through the production areas, where Ángel González explained the construction processes and the different manufacturing stages involved in our projects. The students also visited the shipbuilding area, where they were able to observe the construction of our vessels and better understand the integration between engineering, production and quality.

At AISTER, we particularly value initiatives such as these, which help connect the academic environment with the business world while encouraging practical learning. We strongly believe in supporting the education of future generations of naval engineers and in maintaining active collaboration with institutions across the sector.

As a company, we remain committed to being an organisation open to young talent, promoting knowledge exchange and contributing to the development of the naval industry through education, innovation and cooperation with academic and professional institutions.

We would like to thank the Official College of Naval Architects and Ocean Engineers and the students for their visit, and we wish them every success in their future professional careers within the naval industry.
