About Bachelor of Maritime Operation (Hons.), UG:Bachelor - at Universiti Kuala Lumpur (Uni KL)

Since its establishment in 2004, the focus of UniKL MIMET is purely in the area of Marine Engineering Technology. Realizing that the maritime sector has a broad scope that covers areas such as maritime transport, logistics, offshore industry and their supporting services; the institute has taken the initiative to develop a Bachelor of Maritime Operations (Hons.) programme with the support of industrial experts representing government maritime law enforcement agency, shipping, seaport as well as shipbuilding and ship repair industries.
