Merchant Navy encompasses many and varied shipping companies with vessels ranging from 500 to 300,000 tonnes in size. The ships constitute a vital part of the world economy, carrying oil, containers, refrigerated cargo, coal, ore, grain, timber, cars, steel and a thousand other products to keep nations fed and industry supplied. Other commercial activities include cruise liners and passenger/ vehicle ferries, cable laying and scientific vessels studying the seabed. As a deck officer and eventually as Captain of one of these vessels you would be responsible for the safe navigation and delivery of cargo or let the passengers travel to their final destination. You as a ships officer will be part of a small vital team in charge of millions of sterling pounds worth of sophisticated vessel and cargo. The course is designed to be integrated with professional short courses and eighteen months guided ship onboard training at sea so that, after three years, the successful student will have not only obtained a Certificate of Higher Education (CertHE) in Nautical Science but also a MCA certified Officer of Watch (OOW) Certificate of Competency (COC). This is the initial qualification for an officer to be in independent charge of navigational watch on a commercial vessel anywhere in the world. After further sea time and exams a Chief Mate and Master Mariner certificates can be obtained.

On successful completion of the course students will be awarded Edexcel International HND Nautical Science. Note: MCA assessment requirements will not be applicable to this pre-sea education programme. Students will be able to progress to complete their seatime with a 40% pass in each of their units and completion of STCW pre-sea courses. Students will also receive EDH training before going to sea. The full EDH course and examination will also be provided at UK after successful completion of 18 months sea time. Sea time SAMET on behalf of LJMU will undertake the task of counselling and supervising each student on their TRB . We will advise the students on its content and how to write the TRB before going to sea. We will also counsel the student at midpoint and end of the sea-phase to make sure that they do not arrive in UK with an inadequately completed TRB. Prior to going to sea, SAMET staff will liaise with shipping companies regarding student TRB needs, provide information for Master and officers of each vessel and act as a first point of contact if the ship or company require more information or advice. Academic Delivery at Liverpool The academic programme includes SQA safety papers and Cert HE Nautical Science. EDH course and examination will be scheduled into the programme as convenient.
