Marine Engineering Technology (MARR) has two options: the non-license option program and the license option program.
The Marine Engineering Technology (MARR) non-license option program is designed to prepare the student for a career as an engineering technologist in the maritime profession. Students receive an education in applied engineering with a maritime focus, but do not plan to serve at sea. The MARR curriculum is a thermal power-oriented specialization of a classical Mechanical Engineering Technology program. A thorough preparation in mathematics, science, and basic engineering courses is the foundation for further study in ship propulsion plants and electrical power generation and distribution equipment. Marine Engineering Technology focuses on power cycles, principles, and methods used to convert the energy in fossil fuels into useful power, and the selection and operation of the major components and support systems in the power cycle. Courses in marine engineering are supplemented with studies in naval architecture and maritime application of electrical engineering fundamentals. The students' education is enhanced through the use of computer simulation of propulsion plants and direct operation of marine machinery aboard the University's training ship.
Undergraduate students who meet the following general admission requirements at the time of application are assured admission to A&M-Central Texas:
Minimum 2.0 cumulative transfer GPA on a 4.0 scale;
Minimum 30 academic, college-level transferable semester hours. Applicants pursuing an Applied Science or Aviation Science degree may meet this requirement utilizing select workforce education credit from an approved Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree upon completion of 45 hours, to include all general education courses within the AAS.
Must be eligible to return to all previously attended colleges or universities.
