Mestrado em Ciências em Gestão de Negócios Marítimos

The Master of Science in Maritime Business Management (MSMB) is designed to give students the knowledge and skills to become creative problem solvers and succeed in a variety of senior business, management, and leadership positions. The program emphasizes that good ideas are not enough and that implementation separates excellence from mediocrity in management and leadership. The MSMB program prepares students for executive leadership responsibilities in maritime business and supply chain management, in both the public and private sectors, by helping students develop technical expertise and a strategic mindset to improve the performance of the many facets of the complex global transportation systems--preparing them for careers in local, regional, or global maritime business and supply chain management.

The Academy’s Learn-Do-Learn philosophy promotes learning both inside and outside the classroom. Experiential learning courses and co-ops allow cadets to gain practical knowledge in their fields in the United States and abroad. Scroll our gallery to view our offerings.

USTS Kennedy

All Aboard for a Semester at Sea

Sea Term is a six-week, hands-on voyage. Cadets enrolled in Marine Engineering and Marine Transportation must complete at least four Sea Terms— or “semesters at sea” — that typically takes place in January and February between academic terms.

Sea Term affords cadets the opportunity to rotate through class and laboratory training. This training ranges from ship operations, maintenance, watch standing, to drills.

First-year students sleep in holds with dozens of their shipmates while upper-class cadets live in smaller holds. The various ports of call offer time to relax and unwind. The T.S. Kennedy sails to U.S. and foreign ports of the Caribbean Sea — including the transit of the Panama Canal and an equatorial crossing. Setting sail presents opportunities to develop independence and self-confidence. All majors may have the opportunity to participate in a Sea Term pending space availability and their goals within their specific major.
