$67k - $72k

SUNY Maritime College

Company Description:

Maritime College, a founding institution of the State University of New York and the first of the nation's six maritime academies, is located on the Throggs Neck Peninsula where the East River meets the Long Island Sound. Our scenic, 55-acre campus features over a mile of waterfront with sweeping views of the New York City skyline to the west and stunning views of the sound, extending to the North Atlantic, towards the east. Life on campus at Maritime College blends the best of two worlds: a welcoming, college town and a home in the greatest city in the world.

Within Maritime College, the School of Engineering offers ABET-accredited degrees in electrical engineering, facilities engineering, marine engineering, mechanical engineering, and naval architecture as well as training for licensure in the Merchant Marine. The School provides a unique, experiential education that prepares graduates to excel as engineers in the maritime industry and beyond.

SUNY Maritime College is committed to further strengthening its inclusive campus community, one that comprises a diverse faculty, student body, and staff. Maritime College actively seeks applications from women, veterans, individuals with a disability, and members of underrepresented groups.
