Small Craft Systems
The Small Craft Systems program leads to an Associate of Science degree that is offered jointly by Maine Maritime Academy in Castine and with The Landing School of Boatbuilding and Design in Kennebunkport, Maine. Students spend one year at Maine Maritime Academy as residential students in Castine and one year at The Landing School in Kennebunkport. Students must meet admission criteria for both institutions to be accepted in this degree program.
The Small Craft Systems program emphasizes the interface of marine systems with boat design and construction while practicing the actual installation of these systems in a real world setting.
