The University of Miami has a long history in Ocean Engineering. The University of Miami’s College of Engineering together with the Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science offered a Master of Science degree in Ocean Engineering. The program and others of its kind in the nation, were popular in the 1970s and 1980s, but fell into decline during the 1990s as national circumstances and priorities changed. In particular, opportunities in ship building and underwater acoustics, two key sectors in the field, diminished significantly. The activity in the field at UM has been primarily a PhD focused program since the late 1990s.
However, In the past decade, several major incidents – the 2010 Deep Water oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, a series of devastating hurricanes in 2003-2005 and the Japan Tsunami have turned our collective attention to the vulnerability of the nation’s coastal infrastructure. Furthermore there have been significant demands for an increased emphasis on port and harbor security in the post- September 11 era. These events have led to a revival in the field of Ocean Engineering, albeit with a new focus and broader scope. The revival of the MS in Ocean Engineering was approved by the President of the University of Miami was approved for the fall semester of 2014. We are accepting applications for program beginning on November 1, 2013.
An important aspect of this track is the specification of design loads from wind, waves and currents and will have components relevant to both offshore and coastal problems. Fundamental aspects of flow around rigid bodies, flow induced vibrations and structural response and sediment transport and erosion will also be addressed.
