How you'll learn
100 % online training on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and an assigned technical tutor. No fixed timetables: students progress at their own pace within the intake, which makes it possible to combine study with work.
Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is NAPA, Maxsurf, Rhino + Orca3D, ShipConstructor, ANSYS AQWA, in free, academic or evaluation versions. Tests are studied using real procedures from a hydrodynamic towing tank, a cavitation tunnel and a propulsion test bench. Assessment is continuous across each module plus the final integrative project.
Build it end to end
Your final project follows the real engineering workflow, step by step, reviewed by your tutor.
