Why Maritime Studies?
The programme focuses primarily on tertiary education in shipping, business, management, and maritime science and technology, so as to build up the expertise of the local shipping industry as well as to work towards establishing Singapore as a centre of excellence for shipping business, research and development.
The BSc degree in Maritime Studies and the BSc degree in Maritime Studies with Business Major are conducted jointly by the Nanyang Technological University and BI Norwegian Business School, Norway. These programmes are supported by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA). BI is one of the largest business schools in Norway and Europe. It has six campuses, with the main one located in Oslo. BI was the first Norwegian institution to receive the EQUIS (European Quality Improvement System) accreditation.
NTU has been at the forefront of teaching, research and consulting in the areas of business and technology. With support from the College of Engineering, Nanyang Business School; and the School of Humanities and Social Sciences, students enrolled in these programmes will complete courses in various disciplines, thereby developing different skills in a holistic and comprehensive learning environment.
MPA and the maritime industry have identified having excellent human resources to be the key to Singapore’s further development as a global maritime centre. MPA also provides an Endowed Professorship (Shipping Management) in NTU. The Maritime Studies programmes provide high level and high value education for professionals in shipping and related businesses. The programmes produce graduates who are well-versed with the maritime industry and strong in business knowledge. They will be the future leaders of the global maritime industry.
