Shipboard Living Learning Community

This program, which was developed in 2009, allows incoming students in the Marine Transportation and Engineering Majors to enhance their learning experience.  Each incoming student within one of these majors will be required to live on the Training Ship Golden Bear (TSGB) for one semester of their first year at Cal Maritime.

The First Year Shipboard Living-Learning program helps develop a familiarization onboard the TSGB for all cruise required students.  These classes have been developed by the TSGB officers and Professors in the specific major. This will allows for the students going on the TSGB cruise during their first summer to be well prepared and to be familiar with TSGB as a whole. Residence Hall Officers aboard the TSGB also provide specialize programming to support ship familiarization. Programs include but are not limited to ship tours, pre cruise briefings, systems tours, etc.

Due to the fact that TSGB is a working vessel, supplemental policies exist which all students living aboard are expected to follow. Examples of supplemental policies include but are not limited to:

• No overnight guests for first year students
• Weekly room inspections
• No guests during secure watch periods for any students living aboard (breaks and three day weekends)
