Naval engineering isn’t just ships and submarines—and Andrew Valent explains why.

In this episode of Find Your Flock, the fourth-year Stevens student shares how he discovered naval engineering, what the major really covers, and how the program is expanding into ocean engineering. Andrew also talks about studying in a small, close-knit cohort, learning across multiple engineering fields, and why Stevens is one of the few places where students can explore engineering through a coastal and maritime lens.

The conversation is a practical look at choosing a less common major, understanding emerging engineering fields, and finding an academic path that actually fits your interests.
