The Ocean Engineering program features a summer internship component that provides students with hands-on work experience and networking opportunities with employers at federal agencies and engineering firms.

This experience allows students to apply the knowledge and skills they've gained in the classroom, enhancing their education and preparing them for successful careers in the field before they even graduate.

麻豆传媒 is leading the way in developing and utilizing autonomous platforms for ocean exploration. Our Ocean Engineering students have access to cutting-edge resources, including an 18' Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) (C-Worker 5), a 100" Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) (Iver3), and an explorer-class AUV rated for depths up to 2000 meters, among other advanced systems.

Senior students will engage in project design and capstone courses, where they will apply their skills and knowledge to real-world, application-oriented research projects. Additionally, the Ocean Engineering program offers Honors College students the opportunity to participate in groundbreaking undergraduate research, providing a pathway to hands-on innovation in ocean technology.

Mission

The mission of the Ocean Engineering program is to provide students with the best possible preparation to excel in an ocean related industry as highly competent engineers or to pursue advanced degrees.

Vision

The goal of the Ocean Engineering BS Program is to become an established provider of high-quality education in the field of ocean engineering and to be recognized for its well-prepared graduates who can become leaders in their field. Our vision is to become the premier institution for the development of uncrewed systems and the modeling and monitoring of the Gulf of Mexico.
