Introduction
WMU’s MSc programme emphasizes the practical application of expertise. It offers both an overview of the complex, inter-related maritime and ocean fields, as well as the opportunity to specialize. The programme is designed to respond directly to the real needs of the maritime industry, and to equip graduates with the skills needed today and in the future. It is academically challenging and professionally oriented, and is designed for ambitious, mid-career maritime professionals. It provides a particularly strong foundation for those intending to move into either a national or an international career.
WMU is active in research that is influencing the development of the maritime industry. From the effects of climate change to maritime safety & security, from piracy to port state control, from environmental to technological developments impacting the industry, as well as on ocean-related matters, WMU’s faculty are involved in research that also adds significant value to the content of the MSc programme, keeping it up to date and relevant.
This specialization is designed for the people who wish to make a contribution to sustainable energy and climate actions in the maritime and ocean sectors. Successful candidates are not limited to those having a technical profile (e.g. naval architects, ocean engineers, deck officers and marine engineers, designers, superintendents, surveyors, engineers with a maritime exposure etc.) but also management backgrounds, including maritime economists, ship operators, administrators, IT professionals, port and shipyard managers and professionals from the energy and environmental sectors. It provides a comprehensive understanding of different aspects of maritime energy management across the field from shipping to oceans, and from ports to shipyards with a vision of a sustainable, energy efficient and zero/low carbon maritime industry, in particular decarbonised long-distance shipping.
