Career Path Options
Graduates have a good chance at finding employment. Experience will give you the opportunity to advance from junior naval architect to senior naval architect, or a lead naval architect. Most naval architects work for private shipbuilding companies; however some are employed by design or research firms or are self-employed consultants.
After a few years of experience you may decide to change the area of your work. Considering your broad training, you will have the design knowledge to move from one craft to another such as from military vessels to ocean liners or change from design to process specialisation, or from craft to marine structures used by offshore oil and gas exploration or to manufacturing of marine auxiliary machinery, communications equipment or navigational aids. There are a variety of career paths available.
