The term “maritime” deals with the World’s Ocean. It belongs to everyone and is an essential life support ecosystem. It enables performing more than 90% by volume and 70% by value of the world trade, since sea transportation is still the most-effective way of transporting raw materials and goods around the globe.

Our graduated students could work as: seafarers, agents, super cargo services providers, charterers and brokers, insurance providers, class, flag and cargo surveyors, managers in shipping companies, tug-masters, marine pilots, vessel traffic controllers, dredging managers, clearing and forwarding agents, port and terminal managers, warehousing managers, logisticians, managers in forwarding companies, offshore industry specialists, researchers, educators, trainers, government representatives, etc.
