ABOUT THE PROGRAMME

The undergraduate university study programme in Marine Engineering offers theoretical and, to a large extent, practical training. Namely, the Department of Maritime Studies is equipped with all necessary modern teaching aids such as marine engineering simulator, navigation simulator, lifeboat davit for abandon ships drills, fire drills facility, marine engineering lab, computer science lab and training and research vessel ‘Naše more’ (‘Our Sea’).

Besides our permanent teaching staff, students also have the opportunity to attend the lectures of various guest lecturers who have experience in seafaring and marine engineering. The visits of the world leading shipping companies searching for young educated professionals are also quite common.

PROGRAMME DURATION

The undergraduate university study programme in Marine Engineering lasts three years or six semesters (180 ECTS credits).

DEGREE AWARDED

Upon the completion of the undergraduate university study programme, students are awarded the academic degree of a Bachelor (Baccalaureus) of Engineering in Marine Traffic with specialisation in Marine Engineering (univ. bacc. ing. nav. mech.).

POSSIBILITY TO CONTINUE STUDIES

After graduating from the undergraduate programme, students have the possibility to continue their studies by attending the graduate university programme in Maritime Studies. After completing the graduate programme, they can study at the postgraduate university study programme in Maritime Studies.
