For the master Marine Technology you can contact the Society of Maritime Technology (SMT) with questions.

The brightspace page (to enroll to this brightspace please click this link) of Marine Technology contains a lot of information about the courses, structure and actual information about the master. This is also the main source of information for this master, where this webpage has been created to provide a brief summary and direct you to where more information can be found.

A short summary of the master Marine Technology will be given in the following part.

The master Marine Technology has a number of specializations:

Maritime Operations and Management
Ship Design
Marine Engineering
Ship Hydromechanics
Ship and Offshore Structures

You can choose one of these specializations, or disciplines in other words, or make a combination of courses so that you can specialize yourself in a number of disciplines. Actually, you can compile your own set of courses in addition to the compulsory courses:

Fundamentals of Marine Engineering                                                               5 ECTS  Q1
Torsion and Shear in Marine Structures                                                            5 ECTS  Q1

If you didn't do the BSc. Marine Technology, the following course is compulsory as well:

Introduction to Ship and Offshore Hydromechanics                                        3 ECTS  Q2

Furthermore, you must collect colloquia points by attending activities that expand your knowledge apart from your educational program, for example a lunch lecture (1 point) or excursion (3 points). In the end, you need 15 colloquia points in order to be able to graduate.

To graduate, you must write a thesis. This takes 9 months and you will receive 45 ECTS for this.
