This study's author replicated a Spanish study conducted by Cortes, Pellicer, and Catala, who explored engineering undergraduate students being educated in occupational risk prevention as part of their total college education. The problem is that U.S. naval engineers in Washington, D.C. are not being educated in occupational risk prevention. This lack of training is hampering naval engineer's capabilities and technical acumen to prevent accidents in their designs. The purpose of this qualitative Delphi method study with thematic analysis was to explore with a panel of experts what additional education U.S. naval engineers' need in occupational risk prevention. This study's researcher explored how to integrate occupational risk prevention into current curriculum, to improve engineers' skills to prevent occupational accidents. The Delphi method allowed a procedure to follow that the experts could reach a consensus. Professors and practicing naval engineers participated in the panel to explore what kind of mandatory courses in occupational safety, health, and environmental sustainment should be a part of the required engineering curriculum for naval engineers. Utilized for this study, the questionnaire delivery system, Survey MonkeyRTM, solicited inputs from engineering professors and naval engineers. The data garnered and the results indicated that naval engineers need training in occupational safety, health, and environmental sustainment. Stakeholders could use the results from this study to improve the education of naval engineers in the area of occupational risk prevention. This study should inspire further research and action to improve the education of both naval engineers and other engineers to the benefit of society. Major themes included all forms of safety issues, health, environment, curriculum, and different forms of training, costs, and timing. Subthemes included risk, hazards, blended learning, variety of mandatory subjects, and financial aspects. The conclusions and recommendations from this study indicate that naval engineers need to be educated in specific occupational risk prevention matters at all educational levels and for practicing naval engineers to use blended learning techniques. The practical implications from this study are that naval engineers need specific training in occupational safety, health, and environmental sustainment subjects to safeguard human life and protect the environment for future generations.
