Comments on this program: The Dual License program is administered jointly by the Departments of Engineering and Marine Transportation. Midshipmen should apply for admission to the program at the end of the first term of plebe year. They receive professional preparation as both deck and engineering officers, leading to licensing as both a third mate and third assistant engineer. The dual license graduate is qualified to fill licensed shipboard positions requiring skills in both the deck and engineering departments. The demands of completing the requirements for two licenses in four academic years does not allow for electives. Only students with substantial significant prior college level coursework (particularly in mathematics, science and engineering) can complete the Dual License program. In addition, students wishing to apply for admission to the program should have a 3.0 average at the end of the first term of plebe year.
