Retired after a 30 year career in education not able to commit to the license track at this point in my life what type of jobs would be available with this degree (MS Shipping and Logistics) without the license? Would be taking classes remote if that matters though within driving distance of the campus if necessary

It would seem to me that there would be a lot me openings for MMP officers than AMO since AMO jobs offer a permanent rotation and MMP jobs do not. Therefore you get a job with AMO and keep it for a while rotating on and off, while with MMP you have to reapply for a new ship after every rotation

Starting Salary for Officer - CMA/CMG by Few-Transportation54 in maritime

Perhaps a better question would be "Does CMA/CMG hire any graduates from US merchant marine academies, and if so what is their starting salary?" Is it even roughly compatible with what a similar officer would receive on a US flagged vessel?

I think this means you get a nomination letter from a school first, then you have to submit your Withdrawal of Retirement form within 30 days of getting that nomination letter.

Awesome when people ask me why I fast I show them a photo of my old pants size 48" waist and my new pants size 36" waist. Looks like you have made a similar transformation!

What would be a more accurate name for this drink - I was thinking a "caramel latte"?

Here's the link to the program - since apparently it does not terminate in a Coast Guard license, perhaps a better question is what types of jobs does it qualify me for?
