Abstract
The School of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering in Genoa started its activity in 1870 as ‘Royal School of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering’ with the aim to increase the scientific knowledge of ship designers and ship engineers for both the Italian Navy and the Italian merchant marine. At the moment the University of Genoa has two degrees of 5 years, and one PhD course in topics related to Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering. In this paper we discuss our experience of the so-called “Professionalising Seminars” in which various professionals, such as class surveyors, consultants, lawyers, brokers, claim managers, superintendents, technical managers and Coast Guard officers introduce their activities to the students, in particular about ship management, design and project management, safety and certification, the tasks of maritime authorities, fundamentals of maritime law, financing and insurance.
