History

dec.tdes. the Na\'\ has moved from a fkcl of ,ail and steam-powered ships to a high-c.:ch fleet with nudear-powercd 

subnurinc, .111d surf.ice ,hips and supersonic aircrar1. The acadt:m1· has changed. too. gi\'ing mithhipmcn lh.: up-todatc: ;1Ladcmic .111d prolcss1011,1l 1raining they ncc.:d ro be effccn,·e naval ofr1ti:r, in their assignments .1fter graduation.

Congress authorized che Naval Academy co begin awarding bachelor of science degrees in 

1933. The academy larer replaced a fixed curriculum taken by all midshipmen wirh che 

present core curriculum plus 19 major fields of study, a wide variety of elective courses and 

advanced study and research opporcuniries. 

The Naval Academy first accepred women as midshipmen in 1976, when Congress 

authorized the admission of women co all of rhe service academies. Women comprise abouc 

15-17 percem of encering plebes - or freshmen - and they pursue rhe same academic

and professional rraining as do their male classmates.

Mission 

The Naval Academy has a unique clarit

y of purpose, expressed in our official mission: "To

a,;s1gned when you select your 111.lJOr. 

• Leadership and counseling. Your company officer and senior midshipmen also

guide, monitor an<l evaluate your progress 111 academics, milirary performance and conduct. 

The) also are read} ro hdp in rhe cvenr of problems. as are the academr's staff of chaplains 

and professional counselors. 

• A sponsor program. Hundreds of families in rhe Annapolis art:a sponsor newlyarm·cd midshipmen. offering ,1 home away from home and a place co relax off campus. 

� lore rhan enough families volunteer ro gi,·e every midshipman a local sponsor. These 

co11rac1s ofren grow 111t0 deep friendships that lasr a lifetime. 

Your Commitment

Life at the 

Na val Academy 

Jr would be impossible co predict what four years ac chc Naval Academy would be like for you 

personally, but we can describe our philosophy, our curriculum and che daily life you can 

expect. Onh· when you experience the cxhausring rigors of Plebe Summer, only when you 

face the respomibiliry of commanding other midshipmen and only when you rhrow your hac 

111m che air ac graduation will you really know whac chc Naval Academy experience 1s all 

abour. We can explain char the four vears at Annapolis are dghdy scrucu1n:d. W hile there are 

many ways you can pursue your individual areas of interest, a four-y·ear program is required of 

all midshipmen. In this section, we will give vou a general description of lite at Annapolis. 

Lacer chapters give y·ou che derails of the a<ademic, athletic and professional training 

programs. 

Definitions 

L<·t's scan w1rh a fow basics. On your first day at che academr, you begin learning a whole new 

vocabulary of nautical and Naval Acadenw terms. Before long, the 0oor is 'the deck,' rhe wall 

is 'the bulkhead' and the restroom 1s 'the head'. Likewise, midshipmen seniority is seated 111 a 

\\a� d1fft:rcnt from cradinonal college terms. 

All :sl,1val Academy students. men and women, are called midshipmen. which is a rank 

bcrween chief warrant officer and ensign 111 the Navy. A midshipman first class is a senior. 

Tht: srndcnr body 1s tht: Brigade or,\ tidsh1pmcn, or simply 'the hngade', and the na,·al service 

oftcn is called 'rhc Acd. l"hc brigade is divided inco six batralions. Five companies make up 

each banal ion, making a meal of 30 companies. The midshipmen command srrucrurc is 

headed lw a first class midshipman, chosen for outstanding lcadcrship performance to he 

brigade command<:r. I k or \he.: 1s responsible for much of the: brigade's day-co-da) auiviries as 

well as rhe professional tra1111ng of midshipmen, Overseeing all brigade acnvi[les 1s the 

Commandam of 1\lid,hipmcn. an acrivc-duty Navy officer of rear admiral's rank or above. 

Working for tht: commandant, experienced Navy and Marine Cnrps officers arc assigned as 

company and battalion 0A1ccrs. 

Living with Honor 

I he Honor Concepr of rhi; Brigade of Midshipmen was established by midshipmcn co urge 

all hand, ro c.irr} out th.:ir clmics with the highest sense of personal integrity and honor. Ir 

represents the m1111mum standard char midshipmen arc expected co follow. Honor, i1m:griry. 

and lo) airy co tht· sc.:r\"lcc, m cusmms. and its rradir1ons, are fundamcnc.11 characrenst1cs

selection or ,1dvanced training scheduling following service assignment and seniority upon 

graduation and commissioning. 

\Xie use a letter grading sy,tem with these values, called qua.liry point cquivalenrs, or QPE: 

A 4.0 (Excellent) 

B 3.0 (Good) 

C 2.0 (Sacisfacrory) 

D 1.0 (Marginally passing) 

F 0.0 (Failing) 

Crad� are awragcd using a weighted semcsrer hour system called rhe quality pomc rating or 

QPR. Your QPR is figured by multiplying the QPE received in each course by rhe semester 

hours of cn:du for the course. Thar roral is divided by rhc rotal number of hours completed 

111 che semester. You earn semester QPR, and a cumulanve QPR (CQPR) based on all of 

your grade,.

Ocean Engineering Major 

Ocean Engineering holds the key to the last fronner on earth, che ocean depths. While marine sc1cnnsc, 

provide us with a basic knnwledge of the ocean environment, the oce,m engineer enables us to me this cnvironnwnt more effectively. By blending the fundamentals of mathcmaucs. physics, chemistry and oceanography 

wnh knowledge of the engineering sciences, including ocean materials and wave mechanics, the ocean engineer 

plan,. designs and build, a variety of coastal, harbor, and olllhore strucrures; unmanned underwa1er vehicles 

.111d diver-support equipment; underwater acou.mc systems; ocean energy .u,<l other m.1m1c-rdated environmental >)'Stems. ;\lulti-disc1plinary m nature, ocean engineering will appeal w ci,il, electrical. environmental 

and mechanical engmccrs who wish ro practice in rhe ocean realm. 

The ocean engineering ma1or is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of 1he Accrcdirarion 

Board fur Engineering and ·1c�hnology. The ma1or offers .in 1111egrated program of ,u1dy, using a balance

Organization 

The Naval Academy is organized much like a civilian college. The Board of Visirors, similar 

ma college board of trustees, provides rhc collective Yicws and recommend,1tions of the 

Board m the Supcrintendenr concerning the faval Acadenw. The acadcmr's 

Supcnntendcnc, a '\lavy admiral, is tht: equivalent of a college presidenr in thar he oversees all 

of rhe school\ funuions. 

The Superinren<lcm's principal deputies include a ci,•ilian Academic Dean. who oversees rhe 

academic program and the faculry, and the Commandanc of:-.lidshipmen, a Nav�· admiral 

who serves as <lean of students and superYisor of all military and professional training. 

The Superinrendem, Commandam, Academic Dean and academic division direcmrs sit on 

the academic board, which secs the academy's academic standards. The Naval Academy's 

600-member faculty 1s composi:<l of about equal numbers of civilian scholars and

experienced militarv officers. The civilian professors give the academic program conrinuicy

and a foundaoon of scholarship and teaching experience. The officers, who rotate every rwo

or clrn:c vear,, bring fresh experiences and ideas from operational and sea.ff assignmenrs in the

'\!aw and � larine Corps.

The Depucy for Opcrauons 1s the Supennrendenr's principal assistant for all administrative 

an<l operational mam:rs. The Deputy for Operations, in concert with the Commandant of 

i\lid,hipmcn and Academic Dean, coordinates acriYities and evenrs among che various 

Jcpanments and divisions at the "aval Academy and Annapolis complex.

Concluding comments 

As you mil n:ali,c.: from tht· forc.:guing mm man. rhe phrsical examination for admission to 

rhc Naval •\cadcnw 1s .:omprchensiw, and the 111cdic1I and dcncal standards are exacting. 

This is ncce,sarr because our goal is for evcry midshipman co be able m anticipate 

unrc,tricted opportunities for commissioned scn·ice after graduation. For most cand1daccs, 

rhi: phys1c1l examinmon proccss will require no more than .i single \'isit m the office of a 

plw,ici,111. dc:nrist, .rnd ,111 opwmc:crist. For ochers, qut·sritms "ill arise rhat may neces,irate a 

,·.1ric:ry of aJJiuon,tl evalu.tnons. \Y/e kml\\ rJ115 c.rn become rime-consuming but we hope 

you will understand the rc,1wn for our concern. Qucscionabk issues resolve l;l\'orablv for che 

111.1joril) of candi<l.Hc,, and w,li\'er of rhc scand:ird(s) is often possible when documenr,uion 

of ,1 di,qu,1lify111g condition in an individual candidatc supporrs the cxpeccation of 

unrcstrllted scr\'ice. Sc,1ff members at DOOl'..tl.RB and in che admissions ofrice will assist in
