Description:

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology was the first American university to offer a degree in naval architecture. The year was 1893. Currently, it now offers both baccalaurate and graduate ocean engineering degrees and is the largest such graduate program in the nation. There are, in addition, MIT degree programs in oceanography and coastal engineering; and joint degree programs with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI) were established in 1966 in oceanography and later in ocean engineering and biological oceanography. It was fitting, therefore, that MIT enter the National Sea Grant Program in 1968 with a project that has resulted in the publication of eight textbooks on ocean engineering. From this successful initial effort, the program was expanded into the GH-88 Coherent Area Project, (CAP), "Ocean Utilization and Coastal Zone Management." The CAP was renewed in 1971-1972, and we are please to summarize our activities under our renewal grant, Sea Grant No. 2-35150, and to present this second completion report. The Coherent Area Project for 1971-1972 involved eighteen projects, both interdisciplinary and highly specialized, and an expanding program of education and training in ocean utilization and coastal zone management.
