Where Our Webbies Work


100% Job placement upon graduation.

Webb alumni have founded and built internationally recognized naval architecture and marine engineering firms, have become chief engineers and CEOs of major shipyards and shipping companies, have served as chief naval architects for the U.S. Navy, and have been appointed department heads for the U.S. Coast Guard. Learn more about naval architects and marine engineers.

While most of our graduates pursue careers in the maritime industry, many branch out into other fields, both technical and non-technical. Webb alumni have distinguished themselves across a variety of industries as CEOs of Fortune 500 companies and entrepreneurs in high-tech start-ups; as leaders in law, finance, retail, and manufacturing; as faculty members at colleges and universities —each building upon the solid foundation of the Webb education.
