Maritime Engineering Education (at DTU) What are the challenges? Assoc. prof. Ulrik Dam Nielsen ATV Seminar, Danish Maritime Days, 9th October 2015

Content Introduction: DTU – Technical University of Denmark General engineering education(s) at DTU Background Conclusions from ATV Survey What happened at DTU Challenges in maritime engineering education 22-09-2018

Technical University of Denmark (DTU) 9,000 students 5,000 employees (2,500 scientific staff) 1,100 PhD students B.Sc., B.Eng. and M.Sc. programmes, see next slide(s) 19 departments (aqua, chemical, chemistry, civil, compute, electrical, energy, environment, food, photonics, management, mechanical, nanotech, physics, space, systems biology, transport, veterinarian, wind) 22-09-2018

Engineering educations at DTU “Study programmes at DTU are research-based, analytical and innovative.” B.Eng.: Innovative, practice- and business-oriented—those are the keywords for DTU's B.Eng. programmes.   M.Sc.: Taught exclusively in English, DTU’s M.Sc. programmes cover most modern engineering fields and are research-based technological programmes at elite level—aimed at qualifying the graduate for a knowledge-intensive position in the industry or the business sector, and in society in general. Why: ”Learning to think creatively, analytically and globally—and taught by professors and lecturers at the forefront of their fields...” DTU offers the graduate the base to become a leader in a chosen profession. 22-09-2018

Engineering educations at DTU Bachelor of Science, B.Sc. (16 programmes) Bachelor of Engineering, B.Eng. (17 programmes) Master of Science, M.Sc. (28 programmes) PhD (1,100 Ph.D. students) Durations and combinations: B.Sc. (3 years) M.Sc. (2 years) B.Eng. (3½ years) B.Sc. + M.Sc. = Master’s degree in engineering B.Eng. + M.Sc. = Master’s degree in engineering Relevant in this forum is also Nordic Master in Maritime Engineering = Master’s degree in engineering 22-09-2018

ATV Survey from 2011: “The future maritime engineering. education” Carried out by working group formed by industry and university partners (shipowner, engine manufacturer, consultancy, class, authority, and 2 universities) 13 interviews with industry. Workshop with 60 participants from industry Report with recommendations to university and industry 22-09-2018

Conclusions and recommendations from survey It was found that Industry is lacking engineers –> showstopper for economic growth Need for a combination of ”classic” and ”new” competences Multidisciplinary and practical approach Value chain between research, education and industry. Constant adjustment of course content at the universities in cooperation with industry. University research should result in development, innovations, demonstration and research based teaching. Graduates should have a T-shaped competence profile... if possible like a multi-tool 22-09-2018

What happened at DTU... DTU Mech. Eng. New study tracks for B.Eng., B.Sc. and M.Sc. students were defined Created two new courses: Economic and Environmental Performance of Ships and Maritime Engineering at Sea Arranged study trips to attract more students Increased industry engagement through projects and guest lecturers Introduced new software (NAPA) used by the industry in ship design New PhD positions About 3 times as many students at MSc level DTU Transport DTU Aqua DTU Mech. Eng. DTU Electro DTU Management Engineering 22-09-2018

Challenges in maritime education (1) General challenges in maritime engineering education: It is no easy task to educate candidates that fulfil all criteria as wished for by The Blue Denmark; Not (only) “classical” naval architects in shipbuilding anymore, but candidates should be specialists in (technical) ship operations! Consequently; Requirements to staff (many disciplines to be taught) Requirements to students (many disciplines to be understood) In public, politically – and at DTU! – industry organisations and maritime companies must stress the importance of the maritime education (and research). Contributions and continued engagement by industry in education (as well as research) Some students and part of public still have a misconception of Danish maritime industry as a dying thing – industry must actively show it is still going strong What about Arctic(?) 22-09-2018

Challenges in maritime education (2) More specific challenges in maritime engineering education as experienced by staff at DTU Mechanical Engineering: It is no easy task to educate candidates that fulfil all criteria as wished for by The Blue Denmark; Not (only) “classical” naval architects in shipbuilding anymore, but candidates should be specialists in (technical) ship operations! Consequently; Requirements to staff (many disciplines to be taught) Requirements to students (many disciplines to be understood) Education of students “across” departments because of students’ different background; e.g., “mechanical + electrical = maritime” New employees to take over at FVM (DTU Mechanical Engineering) Essential to maintain (or increase) the number of maritime staff as the older generation retires 22-09-2018

Challenges in maritime education (3) In this forum... 22-09-2018

Maritime study tracks Study track in maritime engineering under the Mechanical Engineering B.Sc. programme "Produktion og Konstruktion". A study track in maritime technology under the M.Sc. programme "Engineering Design and Applied Mechanics".  A study line in maritime technology under the BEng Program Mechanical Engineering. The study tracks (in Danish) are available online. 22-09-2018
