text: `VirtualShip supports students with a realistic framework to experience oceanographic fieldwork within a virtual environment. See the [Learner guide](https://virtualship.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user-guide/user-profiles/learners/index.html) for more information.

The simulated sea-going expeditions allow learners to formulate their own research questions, select cruising routes, and grasp the process of research cruise planning. Just as they would during real-world oceanographic research, students face RLCs ([Real-life challenges](/getstarted/learner/software_gif.gif)), instrument deployment, data collection, and scientific interpretation. The resulting numerical ocean simulations can be combined with VirtualShip's [immersive 360° videos and VR material](https://www.youtube.com/@VirtualShipClassroom).

Using all components of the VirtualShip package qualifies students with conceptual understanding alongside practical awareness of the operational constraints and methodological decisions involved in marine research.

Get started by preparing your own [expedition plan](https://virtualship.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user-guide/assignments/Research_Proposal_only.html) and then continue to [install](https://virtualship.readthedocs.io/en/latest/#installation) and [run](https://virtualship.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user-guide/quickstart.html) VirtualShip.`,
