This course is designed with the aim of deepening the skills of those who have some experience in ship management operations. It will also bridge the gaps and add value to diploma and degree holders with some maritime background by enabling them to deepen their current marine and technical management knowledge.

This specialist diploma requires candidates to have a minimum diploma or professional qualification in management, technology or engineering from recognised institutions and preferably from the maritime management, marine offshore, ocean engineering and naval architecture.

Candidates who do not meet the entry requirements may be considered for admission to the course based on evidence of at least 5 years of working experience with supporting evidence of competency readiness. Suitable applicants who are shortlisted will have to go through an interview and/or entrance test. The Polytechnic reserves the right to shortlist and admit applicants.

The course consists of 2 post diploma certificates (PDC) of 3 modules each and will be conducted over two semesters. Classes will be conducted in three evenings per week for 15 weeks in each semester.
