Growing demand for knowledge
helping Shipbuilding & Offshore
Industry to compete in global
business and continuum
technological, economical as well as
commercial market changes
The main reason for new education needs:
Faculty of Ocean Engineering & Ship Technology
Gdansk University of Technology is certified University good University which
gives Good Jobs. It is one of 20 distinguished universities. Academic Information
Centre appreciates in this way universities are able to create a professional
perspective to its students and graduates.
The certificate is valid for the academic year 2014/15. Highlighted the high
schools were assessed in the light of action university careers offices, national
and international internship programs, cooperation between universities and
employers of the region to adapt the curriculum to the needs of the labor market.
Full list of distinguished schools is available here.

Internal and external reasons for teaching in English
1. Internal pressures Polish students to expand the curriculum in English
2. The growing quantity of foreign students in training / practice within the
ERASMUS program
3. Decreasing number of marine departments at European universities
4. The increasing difference between the demand for engineers Shipbuilders
in European countries and the possibilities of their meet by the home
universities - an opportunity for our faculty
