Water is becoming one of the economic sectors of the future. If, in the past, the world’s oceans have been regarded in the first instance as a source of nutrition and a global transport route, then recently they have gained growing significance for the development and use of high technologies. The oceans as a location for large-scale wind power generators, as an energy source thanks to underwater methane reserves, as a raw material supplier, with biological processes as an example of bioprocess techniques and new foodstuff ingredients – all these aspects are coming into view and opening up a broad field for research as well as a wide variety of vocational prospects. That is why Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences – in cooperation with the Alfred Wegener Institute of Polar and Marine Research – has developed the Maritime Technologies course. The course unites the competence of Bremerhaven University of Applied Sciences in the field of seafaring, which has evolved over more than 100 years, with new modern technologies and the demands of the maritime sector. In addition, the course benefits from the know-how of the leading research organisation in the field of polar and marine research which is contributed to the course through the involvement of the AWI. This ensures that the contents of the course are always up to date.
