Marine Engineering and Shipyard To enroll in this program a Midshipman Management Program must have a CQPA of at least 2.67 at the th The Marine Engineering and Shipyard end of the 4 class (plebe) year. Management program prepares Midshipmen as officers in the U.S. The sample curriculum for both A and B Merchant Marine; provides an engineering splits follows education that prepares them for a wide variety of professional positions in ship construction and repair, operations, marketing, maintenance and survey; and imparts to them a solid engineering education that permits them to pursue graduate study and/or become licensed as a Professional Engineer, should they so choose. This curriculum puts particular focus on the management of ship construction and repair. An important element of the Marine Engineering and Shipyard management program is the design experience interwoven throughout a student’s four years, culminating in the capstone design project in senior year. The student participates as part of a team tasked with developing a ship construction or ship repair project. The project is spread over two terms and finishes with a presentation of the final design to a panel of faculty and invited industry professionals.

Marine Engineering Systems Program program, a Midshipman must have a The Marine Engineering Systems program CQPA of at least 2.67 at the end of the 4th prepares Midshipmen to serve as licensed class (plebe) year. The sample curriculum officers in the U.S. Merchant Marine; for both A and B splits follows. provides an engineering education that prepares them for a wide variety of professional positions in such career fields as ship systems and marine equipment design, research, construction, operations, marketing, maintenance, repair and survey; and imparts to them an engineering education that permits them to pursue graduate study and/or to become licensed as a Professional Engineer, should they so choose. This program focuses on the design of marine power plants and their associated systems.

An important element in the Marine Engineering Systems program is the design experience that is interwoven throughout four years, culminating in a major capstone design project in senior year. The student participates as part of a team tasked with the design of a ship power plant. The project is spread over three terms and concludes with the presentation of the final design to a panel of faculty and invited industry professionals.

The Department of Humanities is composed of dedicated scholars who are The Department offers two required history courses. The first of these is passionate about encouraging student communication skills, life-long the History of Sea Power, a 3-credit course taken in the Plebe year, which learning, and respectful reflection on the complexities of the human acquaints Midshipmen with maritime and naval history, including the role experience, crucial abilities for young people as they move through the of sea power during the two 20th century world wars as well as reinforcing increasingly complex and diverse twenty-first century. Our goals in so basic writing, critical reading and speaking skills. The 3-credit History of doing are laid out in the department’s mission statement: “The Humanities the Modern World course, offered in an upper-class year, examines the Department, through directed reading, writing and discussion, develops forces that have shaped global societies to better prepare Midshipmen to Midshipmen’s knowledge of history and literature, oral and written work in an industry that spans the world. communication skills, capacity to think critically, and awareness of In addition to the traditional on-campus courses, all Midshipmen complete American and world culture.
