Shaping the People who Shape the Industry.

The marine industry – where light, durable, high-performance materials are in high demand – was among the first to use composites. Today, composites represent the next generation of building materials in industries like Aerospace, Wind Energy, Automotive, and Construction.

Perhaps you’ve carefully considered a career in the marine industry. Or maybe you’re just curious. Either way, as you embark on your personal journey, consider this: IYRS (International Yacht Restoration School) is the first place where the marine industry looks for people who are qualified to shape its future.

And a big part of that future is composites.

The IYRS Composites Technology Program is one of the first of its kind, staffed by professionals who continue to explore the next generation of light, durable, high-performance boatbuilding materials. Come join us.
