Our Careers in Maritime open days aim to give you an insight into what a career in the maritime industry has to offer, and the training programmes necessary to qualify as a ship's navigation, engineer or electro-technical officer in the merchant navy and the superyacht industry.
Many of the major British shipping companies and recruitment and training representatives who recruit cadets and crew will be there to give information about the career opportunities they offer. Our teaching staff are also on hand to talk about the academic side of training.
You can talk to our officer cadets, who are often happy to share their first hand experience of the training and life as a cadet, both at Warsash and on board ship.
You're welcome to tour the the Spark building and East park Terrace, as well as take a shuttle down to the St. Mary's Campus to check out the engine workshops. There will be presentations and maritime safety talks, as well as demonstrations in the simulation suites. David Moxon student residences - where cadets will be accommodated - will also be open to visitors for guided tours.
