Welcome

The Fall 2009 term is underway and we have five more weeks of classes until the finals. We hope all our students have done well in their midterms. Advising and registration for the Spring 2010 term starts soon.

Prospective new students and interested parents should study the information available with the Undergraduate Program menu item. Specific questions may be directed to our undergraduate program advisor Dr. Birk. Prospective graduate and PhD students should read the info in the Graduate Program section and contact our Chair Dr. Vorus. We still have open positions for graduate assistants.

The School of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering at the University of New Orleans was established in 1980 on demand by the local shipbuilding and offshore industry. Since then the School of NAME has provided the marine industry with well educated graduates and supports its progress through basic and applied research. UNO offers the Bachelor of Science in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering (NAME), Master of Science in Engineering and the Ph.D in Engineering and Applied Science. Our graduates are on high demand and find positions usually well before their actual graduation in a wide range of marine enterprises including ship and yacht builders, offshore companies, engineering and design consultants, software developers and others. The UNO Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering curriculum is accredited by the Accrediting Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).
