Webb Institute Outcomes

Webb graduates enter naval architecture and marine engineering with starting salaries typically ranging from $70,000 to $85,000. The full-tuition scholarship means most students graduate debt-free, giving them an enormous financial advantage over engineering peers who average $40,000 in student loans. The 22.55% federal loan rate reflects only living expenses for some students. Alumni design everything from luxury yachts to military vessels at firms like Gibbs & Cox and General actives. The specialized degree opens doors to shipyards, offshore energy companies, and marine consulting firms worldwide. Monthly loan payments represent less than 5% of typical graduate income compared to 15-20% for most engineering programs. Strong return on investment.
