[Current or Ex Marine Industry PPL Pls advise] SIT-NewCastle University

[Just Want To Know]

Hi all, I'll be attending the SIT-Nu program this year, I would like to ask ppl who had been in marine industry or still working in marine industry two questions.

1. Which degree program has better career opportunity and less limitation in the marine industry? and why?

a. Bsc in Marine Engineering
b. Bsc in Naval Architecture
c. Bsc in Offshore Engineering

2. Will there be limitation if one choses Marine Engineering? in terms of not able to participate in rig design, work on rig, or get into design office?

Really appreciate any advises.

Thank you all.

upz upz...

actually i would say that the 3 degrees are pretty similar with many common modules. It all boils down to what you really want to specialize in. If u like rig n ship designing u should opt for naval arc, whereas if u want to be more involved in rig u should choose offshore.

-just my 2 cents

Hi, i'm also interested in these programme. Just a question what are the possible career prospects for naval architecture? (i.e demands for such profession in the maritime industry)
