Robert B. Zubaly, Professor of Engineering at the State University of New York (SUNY) Maritime College, received his BS in naval architecture and marine engineering from the Webb Institute of Naval Architecture.

He has lectured or conducted research at all of the maritime-related institutions of higher education in the New York metropolitan area, several east coast shipyards, the American Bureau of Shipping, and the Seamen’s Church Institute. He was awarded the SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Teaching in 1973.
