Engineering and Supply

[JGD]

Hello everyone!

I have recently been professionally selected as an officer caniddate to the Supply Corps and I am very excited to soon be apart of this community.

I do have a few questions about ways I can benefit the Supply Corps with my educational background within the degrees: B.S. in Chemical Engineering and B.S. in Applied Mathematics.
I can see how my knowledge in Applied Mathematics may benefit the Supply Corps but, I would somehow like to give my 2 cents from my Engineering background. Are there positions down the line of a Supply Officer's career that are chemically or medically/biologically related. Anything possibly dealing with Petroleum or Nuclear?

Thanks in advance!

I am just wondering if an OR talked to you about NUPOC?

I have. I did the VIP trip, submitted my kit for NUPOC and was declined for an interview. I am a dual major student (graduating this year) GPA 3.1 I was told that my GPA was slightly declining over the semesters and stayed at a 2.7 to 3.0 avg my last 2 years.
I ended up also putting my kit in for the Supply Corps board since my goal, at the end of the day, is to have Naval Service.

Thoroughly read each link with a fine tooth comb. You will eventually be told to down the down to read these, but doing it now will put you ahead of the game. You have a great deal of freedom to shape your career/life in Supply after your first tour if you have an understanding of these topics. By life, education and skills that can make you money long after you are done with the Navy.

Also check out this article on Naval Reactors ashore and see if it interests you. PM me if you have any questions. I never did Reactors, but I know who to ask.

Great attitude. You will do well in whatever. "The Force is strong in this one."
