The oceans and seas play a crucial role as a primary provider of food, energy, and minerals. 40% of the world's population lives near the coast, and over 3 billion people directly rely on the oceans for their subsistence through fisheries and aquaculture, along with the processing and trade activities associated with ocean resources. The world, therefore, needs engineers to develop innovative and green technologies for the responsible and sustainable utilisation of ocean resources.
In this programme you will gain key knowledge in the field of marine technology. You will learn about marine and offshore structures, subsea production, offshore aquaculture, offshore renewable energy and fjord crossings. After graduating you are well-equipped to participate in developing new technology, methods and best practices for the marine, offshore and subsea industries.
