Noted, thanks again!
Just remembered another question if you wouldn't mind answering - are there any limitations to travelling internationally while on leave?
Wow thank you for the thorough and most helpful response, Lumber - it is most appreciated. An extra month in addition to the regular annual leave sounds wonderful!
Hello everyone,
would someone be able to share their experience with the Marine Systems Engineering Officer Training?
I've found information on the timelines etc. but could someone share their insights on what happens with those that aren't able to complete the training successfuly?
There...
Thank you kindly, Sir. I wasn't able to completely figure out what category of leave would that be (disembarkation?) however it seems like it definitely isn't a 2 month leave.
If someone could clarify further, that would be much appreciated.
Hello all,
is there a kind soul who wouldn't mind explaining how post-deployment leave works in the Navy?
Once I read somewhere that in case one is deployed e.g. 6 months, they would get 2 months post-deployment leave (which honestly seemed to good to be true) so I'm hoping someone could...
Absolutely, there is no perfection in this world so might as well try different things :D
Thank you once again for all the input. This really seems like a decent trade choice for me...
That's a great way of thinking, I believe I am slowly changing my mindset toward living in the moment but it's good to know that one's profession/job can provide some safety in older days. The signing bonus sure doesn't hurt the morale :D
I always loved sailing and spent some time working on...
Wow I am humbled by the vast amount of information you've all provided, thank you everyone for your time and input.
In comparison with the Naval Warfare Officer, the Marine Systems Engineering Officer appears to provide more potential opportunities - would you be abe to comment on that/compare...
I like to have a complete picture and consider all possible outcomes- including retirement with CAF as well as potential alternative career opportunities if things don't work out.
When it comes to the non-engineering degree, I was referring to the actual MSEO position.
Thank you once again...
Thank you, sir. I was more interested in cruise or merchant vessel engineer officer positions, but I may just retire with the CAF (provided I get in in the first place). It's good to have options.
Do you know about the education requirements, would a non-engineering MSc degree satisfy the...
Hello good people,
would anyone be willing to comment on the opportunities in the civilian sector for an ex. Marine Systems Engineering Officer? Would they be able to obtain engineering/safety officer positions on non-military vessels?
Thank you for your time.
Wonderful opportunities that normally would not be available to many. Now, when it comes to being admitted to a Medical school - that may be a whole different challenge. I truly appreciate you sharing this, dapaterson :)
