What is the purpose of this study programme?
This is the only study programme in the country covering the technology of maritime transport logistics. It studies the global supply chain in the broadest sense and with a strong focus on the maritime transport and seaport chain – because about 90 percent of the global international trade is conducted by sea. Such studies give students the opportunity to study in all higher education institutions that offer logistics studies, and also in maritime academies.
- Studies of maritime technology and the competences of the future specialist are based on the operational needs of the international maritime transport industry and the latest maritime technologies, regulated by the conventions of the International Maritime Organization; therefore, the structure of the study programme and study subjects are similar to the programmes offered in foreign maritime academies.
- There are traditional engaging lectures, seminars, discussions, analysis of scientific and professional literature. Critical thinking is developed and lectures are designed to support integrated teaching of subject content and foreign language, as well as content analysis of international legislation regulating the maritime transport sector and business.
- Students perform research work, prepare applied research publications and presentations at national and international conferences, participate in lessons based on problem and case
- analysis, develop business planning projects, work in small and large groups, discuss and reflect, as well as engage in creative writing, consulting, independent work, etc.
- Practical training of the programme ‘Ensuring the safety of people and ship viability (STCW A-VI/1)’ takes place in the pool of the LMA Seafarers’ Training Center with lifeboats and a simulator of a helicopter lift, as well as in the laboratories of firefighting and first aid.
- Typically, interns are employed by seaport or other companies during their professional internship, and receive a salary from their employer.
