Intense! At Webb, you encounter your first courses in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering in your first semester: by the time you get your B.S. four years later, you'll have completed 146 credit hours.

Comprehensive: Along the way, you'll be immersed in a multifaceted field that combines electrical, mechanical, civil/structural, marine, and systems engineering – and ship design.

Fun: Somewhere in there, we'll also send you off to sea. Just to make sure you love what you're getting into.

Webb's Dean Prof. Roger Compton, D.Eng., delivered the address for the inauguration of Stevens Institute's new Center for Maritime Systems on December 12, 2006. His subject was the education of ship designers for the twenty-first century. You can read his lecture here.
