We are delighted to announce the successful achievement of a major milestone in the B.Sc. Marine Engineering Degree programme offered by the Department of Marine Engineering at Ocean University Sri Lanka – the implementation of the CDC programme for graduates. This accomplishment would not have been possible without the unwavering support and cooperation of all members of the department staff and our colleagues from supportive departments across the University.

Furthermore, we extend heartfelt congratulations to the Department of Marine Engineering for producing Sri Lanka’s first female Engineer cadet, Miss D.K.N.A.Ananda, who qualified herself for naval operations. I applaud her, as well as all other graduates who have successfully completed the CDC programme.
