Offshore Engineering
Offshore Engineering Graduate Certificate
In the U.S., there are fewer than ten programs that offer graduate degrees in ocean engineering. Recent trends and future needs point to increased demand for ocean engineers, particularly in the oil and gas industries, offshore industry and clean energy sectors. This online certificate program requires satisfactory completion of four of six 3-credit courses, all of which are offered online.
Admission Requirements
- A bachelor's degree in an engineering or a related field such as science.
- GPA of at least 3.0 or equivalent (to ensure equivalency to graduate standing).
