The Corps of Cadets

Formation with cadets  1939 formation

For over 90 years, CSU Maritime Academy has been developing leaders. A staple to the CSU Maritime Academy experience is the being part of the Corps of Cadets. This unique structure puts day-to-day responsibility and accountability into the hands of cadets. Our campus is a leadership laboratory that puts cadets in charge of their experience. When a cadet graduates from CSU Maritime Academy, they will be ready to step into any professional setting as not an employee, but as a leader.
