Fall Break at Webb was an adventure to remember! 🌲 Our students traded textbooks for tents and spent an unforgettable weekend in the Delaware River Valley - rafting, hiking, and sharing meals under the stars. With students from every class year joining in, it was the perfect way to build friendships and make memories outside the classroom. On this Event Organizing Day, we’re sending a huge thank you to Karissa Nieves and Joseph Estrella for their incredible planning and leadership. You made this trip possible... and special! #FallBreak #StudentLife #WebbCommunity #EventOrganizingDay

Did you know? 100% of Webb graduates secure employment or graduate school placement within 6 months of graduation! Now, what do you think of those #numbers? #WorldStatisticsDay #WebbInstitute #MarineEngineering #NavalArchitecture #DataMatters

Built to Build Anything. Our 2026 Look Book is here! Take a look at the campus, the dual degree, Winter Work, and the alumni who've taken Webb into shipyards, design firms, and far beyond. Huge thanks to Fifteen4 for designing it with us. Every spread looks better with their eye.

Ships don't start in the shipyard. They start with the people who design them. In his latest @substack Freight + Fortune piece, @JLightbourn makes a point we talk about every day at Webb: the conversation about U.S. shipbuilding usually focuses on how many ships we build, but the real foundation is human capital - the naval architects and marine engineers behind every hull. The numbers are striking. The U.S. graduates roughly 450 naval architects and marine engineers a year across institutions like Webb, USMMA, and the University of Michigan. A single shipbuilding college in China graduates about the same number on its own, with thousands more coming from other Chinese universities. Revitalizing America's maritime industrial base means investing in the engineers first. That's been Webb's mission since 1889: every student studies naval architecture and marine engineering, every student completes paid winter work terms in industry, and every student graduates ready to go to work. Thank you, James, for including Webb in this important conversation. 🔗 Read the full piece in the link below. cavaliershipping.substack.co… P.S. The vessels pictured in this post are designed in 2020 by Webbies (Webb alumni). It’s proof of what this Webb pipeline produces. ⚓ #Shipbuilding #NavalArchitecture #MarineEngineering #MaritimeWorkforce #WebbInstitute

Thank you to #Latitude38 for spotlighting Webb Institute! ⛵ The Bay Area's sailing magazine caught up with two Webb alumni who've made their mark on the West Coast waterfront: yacht designer Jim Antrim ‘72 and marine engineer Paul Kamen ‘73. They overlapped at Webb, sailed together on our team, and both graduated debt-free. Jim calls attending Webb "one of the best decisions I have ever made," pointing to the hard work, the tight-knit community, the honor code, and the Winter Work periods that put him in industry before graduation. That formula hasn't changed. Every Webb student still receives a full-tuition scholarship, individual attention, and real-world experience in the field. And as U.S. News now gives more weight to student outcomes, Webb has returned to the Best Colleges rankings at No. 3. A bonus for Bay Area readers: the China Cabin on the Belvedere waterfront came from a steamer built by William Henry Webb, who founded our school in 1889.

Float, sink… or topple? Our freshmen put the boats they built to the test at last Friday’s Freshman Boat Race … with the Webb family cheering them on! Watch the clip to see how they fared. More soon. Watch this space! #WebbInstitute #FreshmanBoatRace #Engineering #STEM #Maritime #NavalArchitecture #MarineEngineering #College #School

Worth the wait! After weather postponed the Freshmen Boat Race during Family Weekend, last Friday brought beautiful conditions for our newest Webbies to take to the water… and the Webb family was there to cheer them on! It was wonderful to see their creativity, teamwork, and engineering come to life, and watch how each boat handled the water. The big question: would their designs keep them afloat? 👀 With the Webb family cheering them on, it was a day full of excitement, laughter, and Webb pride. #WebbInstitute #FreshmenBoatRace #WebbFamily #LifeAtWebb

Family Weekend Q&A, unscripted. A parent asked, “Is it better to spend all your winter work terms with one company, or to diversify?” Owen Klimczak ’27 spent three sessions at NASSCO working on Military Sealift Command vessels and says it's a trade-off. It's a big advantage for anyone heading into that sector. Even for a career in cruise ships, though, working to military design standards builds an attention to detail that stands out with any employer. That's the Webb difference: real shipyard experience, every single year. 🎥 Watch the full clip to hear it in Owen’s own words. #WebbInstitute #WinterWork #NavalArchitecture #MarineEngineering #FamilyWeekend2026

Webb welcomed collegiate sailors to Glen Cove this past weekend for the 2026 COHO Memorial Regatta! Our waterfront came alive as our Webb Clippers competed alongside students from Columbia University, Hamilton College, SUNY Maritime College, Stony Brook University, Stevens Institute of Technology, the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point, and the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. It was a wonderful day of competition, camaraderie, and college sailing on the Long Island Sound. Thank you to all the sailors, coaches, volunteers, and supporters who helped make the regatta possible, and congratulations to everyone who competed! A special thanks to William (Jack) Prior ’27 and Marc Leyk '28 who ran this committee and kept the day on course. #WebbInstitute #COHORegatta #CollegeSailing #Sailing #LongIslandSound #WebbClippers

Our Webb Triathlon Club took on the Sea Cliff Triathlon this weekend, swimming the Long Island Sound, cycling through the Village of Sea Cliff, and running along the shoreline. Naval architects and marine engineers know a thing or two about the water, and this crew proved it's more than theory. Congratulations to Nora Williams '29, Audrey Williams '27, Lauren Roley '27, Joseph Estrella '29, and Sean Keane '27 for representing Webb on the course. Small school, mighty athletes. #WebbInstitute #StudentAthletes #StudentEngineers #Triathlon #SwimBikeRun

For more than 30 years, Webb Institute has played a small but memorable role in Batman history, appearing as Wayne Manor in #BatmanForever, @Batman & Robin, #Gotham, and #Joker. Our latest story goes behind the scenes with Webb memories from the filming of Batman Forever. When Batman Forever was filming here, our Dean, Matthew Werner ’95, PG’97, was a senior. Gailmarie Sujecki (Hon.) Executive Assistant to the President and Director of Alumni Relations was 15 years into her career at Webb. Today, they walk the courtyard that keeps turning into Wayne Manor, and they are the reason this history is a set of first-hand memories and not a trivia entry. In celebration of Batman Day tomorrow, Sept. 19th 2026, discover how our small engineering college became part of Batman’s cinematic history.

Webb is making headlines! Webb Institute has been named to The Princeton Review's Best Colleges guide for 2027 - one of 392 schools recognized, and the top 14% of U.S. colleges. Long Island Press spoke with us this week about what makes that possible: an endowment that has grown to roughly $900,000 per student, a full-tuition scholarship for every admitted U.S. student, a required humanities course every semester, and a paid industry internship every winter. In employer surveys, nearly 97% of our juniors and seniors rated good or excellent on communication for an engineering program, that's not an accident. Grateful to Vivian Rose and @LongIslandPress (@schnepsmedia ) for the coverage, and to @ThePrincetonRev for the recognition.
