The Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) with a specialisation in Maritime Engineering is offered in a unique joint venture between Auckland University of Technology (AUT) and the Australian Maritime College (AMC). This program allows New Zealand citizens to gain a comprehensive education in maritime engineering. Students complete their first two years of study at AUT in New Zealand, establishing a strong foundation in engineering principles and maritime technology. For the final two years, students transfer to the Australian Maritime College in Tasmania, Australia, to specialise in either Naval Architecture or Ocean Engineering. This is the only program of its kind available to New Zealand students, providing a direct pathway to advanced maritime specialisations.
Curriculum
The program begins with foundational engineering studies at AUT, shared with other Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) and Bachelor of Engineering Technology majors, allowing flexibility. In your later years at AMC, you will delve into advanced maritime specialisations. A mandatory 12-week supervised work placement is required before graduation to provide exposure to industry practices, engineering procedures, responsibilities, and health and safety.
