NUMA is a 501c3 non-profit. We typically schedule only one or two projects a year. As such, NUMA has no full-time staff and only hires help on an as-needed basis. The divers who work for NUMA are a trusted and loyal crew that have been with the organization for many years. And as much as we appreciate the offer of volunteer assistance, we unfortunately just don’t have the need for volunteer help.

NUMA is so exciting and worthwhile a venture, we would like to make a contribution to NUMA?

Thank you for your generous offer. While NUMA does not actively solicit donations, contributions to NUMA may be made by sending a check made out to NUMA and sent to:

National Underwater and Marine Agency
P.O. Box 956
Los Alamos, NM 87544

I would like to earn a degree in a field that would allow me to some day participate in helping to preserve maritime history. Where do you suggest I go to college?

Domestically, Texas A&M’s Institute of Nautical Archaeology is excellent. East Carolina University has a program in maritime history and nautical archaeology that is also well regarded. The University of Hawaii also offers a Marine Options program that might merit a look. If you are interested in maritime engineering, we suggest the State University of New York (SUNY) Maritime College.
