The Marine Academy of Science & Technology (MAST) is a full-time, four-year Career Academy located in the Fort Hancock Historic Area at the tip of Sandy Hook. The school campus is located adjacent to the Sandy Hook Lighthouse, the oldest working lighthouse in the country, in 14 renovated historic buildings, within walking distance of several beaches. Facilities include a 65-foot research vessel, Blue Sea, a Marine Biology Laboratory, an Oceanography Laboratory, a CADD Laboratory, a Marine Technology Workshop and studio, a Media Center containing a Computer Classroom, three Naval Science buildings, as well as Chemistry and Physics Laboratories and classrooms. The high school's facilities support a rigorous curriculum focused on marine sciences and marine technology and engineering. The MAST program also requires each student to participate in the Navy Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (NJROTC), which also fulfills the state's Physical Education requirement.
