\nFor many the maritime sector is not one they may know much about but there are many exciting careers in the industry, with plenty of opportunities to travel, work abroad and not just to always sit behind a desk at a computer. Our graduates are highly sought after in the industry and can be found in leadership positions worldwide and across a range of sectors from cruise ships, America’s Cup team, offshore industry, ship design and consultancy,\u00a0marine renewables, defence sector, academia and even Silicon Valley.\u00a0 We are the only degree programme in the UK which is accredited by the Royal Institution of Naval Architects<\/a>, Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and\u00a0Technology<\/a>, and the Institution of Mechanical Engineers<\/a>. There are exciting engineering challenges in the maritime sector from how do we decarbonise shipping, protect lives at sea, maritime robotics, develop cost effect marine energy harvesters for wind, wave and tide to name but a few.
\nFor those studying hard at school who are interested in\u00a0the maritime engineering sector we have four open days this summer. Staff and students will be on hand to answer questions and show some of our facilities and educational experience.\u00a0\u00a0Our degree course cover a wide range of the maritime sector and provide great flexibility.\u00a0 We look for strong grades in maths and a suitable science such as physics, chemistry or further maths. Our admissions team is always happy to answer question either by email or phone.
\nThis summer’s University open days are taking place on Saturday 8th July, Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th September and Saturday 14th October. To book for the 8th July or register an interest and find out more http:\/\/www.southampton.ac.uk\/about\/visit\/open-days.page<\/a> . It will be great to meet you\u00a0and explain more.
