Most consumer goods have spent part of their journey from factory to shop on board a ship. The business of shipping is therefore pivotal to the world economy and spans a number of disciplines including commerce, economics, law, logistics and management. What’s more, job opportunities are numerous, whether you aspire to work in a business environment or closer to the world of ships and ports and - because this is an international job market - it could potentially take you all over the world.
We have a proud tradition of teaching maritime studies at LJMU, having originally provided courses as Liverpool Nautical College. However this course is firmly focused on the present and future needs of the maritime industry, with its state-of-the-art facilities, teaching from staff with extensive industrial experience and exciting work placement opportunities.
