FALL 2026

The Traditional Student Track provides a dedicated developmental framework designed for students in majors that do not require a merchant mariners license. This track emphasizes personal branding, student engagement, and holistic academic wellness, replacing maritime regimental duties with professional identity milestones. Rather than entering a uniform system, these undergraduates focus on translating their university journey into shoreside corporate, scientific, or logistics career opportunities. The week is structured to systematically introduce campus resources, promote cross-departmental networking, and embed students deeply into the supportive waterfront community.
