This paper compares the educational training requirements of engineers to become professionals. In particular it compares the Naval Architecture courses at University College London and Stevens Institute of Technology. It considers the University entry requirements, course content, methods of assessment and the external influences such as Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Engineering Council (UK) and the Washington accord. This paper is in part the result of the authors' effort to establish a student exchange between their institutions.
