United
States Merchant Marine Academy
Launches Master of Marine Engineering Degree Program
The
United States Merchant Marine Academy has launched its Master
of Marine Engineering (MMarE) degree program. The MMarE program
was established in recognition that higher education is vital
to keeping marine engineers ready to face critical challenges,
and that advanced education is an important factor in ensuring
the competitiveness of their employers.
The
program offers a unique opportunity for practicing marine engineering
professionals to advance their technical education and careers
while continuing in their current capacities. The MMarE course
focuses on the application of advanced technical concepts and
skills. It addresses the real-world problems and challenges
facing designers, builders, and operators of vessels, marine
structures, and components. Subject experts teach a 36-credit
combination of core and elective courses in which the concepts
and designs available to the world market are discussed and
analyzed. Through the use of a combination of synchronous and
asynchronous distance-learning technologies, the program is
accessible to all students with access to a computer.
Applications
for the program are now being accepted for the academic year
that will begin September 2007. Additional information is available
at the United States Merchant Marine Academy’s web site:
www.usmma.edu/gradcourse.
