Brief Description of the Program: The M.S. program at SUNY Maritime College was originally established in 1968 to offer a graduate level degree in Transportation Management , based on the specialized, extensive expertise of the College in maritime and intermodal affairs. The main purpose was to serve the needs of the professional transportation community by comprehensively educating on a graduate level those already working in the transportation community, or those seeking entry to it. In the transition to the twenty-first century, the graduate faculty advocated that it was logical and desirable that the name of the program be changed to reflect the development of the strong international flavor that had come to characterize the curriculum. Coincidentally, a new, Trustee-approved mission of SUNY Maritime College was adopted stating that the college is to provide "quality ? graduate programs in international business?" Another part of the College mission stated that the purpose of the College is to help create "a quality workforce and prospective leaders for the state, nation, and maritime and international business community?" Lastly the new mission called for the College to be a "nationally and internationally recognized resource of expertise in its specialized disciplines as they relate to the maritime field."
