Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering

[pliang]

<p>Hello, does anyone know how well ranked or how reputable/good the Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering program is at the Universtiy of Michigan-Ann Arbor? USNews doesn't seem to rank this major among its undergraduate engineering programs.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>you cant go wrong with michigan engineering</p>

<p>lmao Although I completely agree with bearcats, maybe someone should expound on that.</p>

<p>Well, architecture is probably where Naval architecture falls under, it’s probably just a concentration. So choosing a school with a good architecture program is best.</p>

<p>Next</p>

<p>If, I’m not mistaken Marine engineering is just mechanical engineering with a concentration. Well UMich is definitely the best school for Mechanical Engineering. (a little biased but mostly true.)</p>

<p>Here is some more information of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering, which UMich offers together:</p>

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, [U.S</a>. Bureau of Labor Statistics](<a href=“http://www.bls.gov%5DU.S”>http://www.bls.gov), the job outlook for naval architects and marine engineers is expected to be good. Experts have made this prediction because these architects and engineers can work in various industries, and many companies still ship products by sea. There are specific educational requirements for those pursuing careers as naval architects or marine engineers. Students often enter these fields after receiving bachelor’s degrees in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering. Those interested in higher paying positions or managerial positions may want to consider obtaining master’s degrees.

<p>This is another school that offers the program, but I don’t much about this school.

<p>The only reason I highly recommend UMich is because you get the luxury of the name and the option of the major, rather than majoring in mechanical engineering in some other school and then later on forcing yourself to go to graduate school and focus on marine engineering then.</p>

<p>Naval architecture is engineering, not architecture.</p>
