REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingI am definitely learning. The course load definitely pushes you to be constantly learning, and people here take around 18 credits plus noncredit courses such as labs for chemistry, nautical science, physics, in addition to other courses and classes such as ships maintenance. The small class sizes allow teachers to know you personally and are there to encourage and help you with anything. You will work hard but it is to get you ready be successful when you graduate and go into industry. You will know the industry and how to perform well in it.
