Introduction
This unit introduces the work flow processes in shipyard related workshop and on-board operations. The former will include: all major workshops such as steel works, mechanical engineering, piping and electrical. On-board work will cover machinery, space, pumping operations, hull repairs, surface preparation and coating, dry-dock work and providing general services to the ship. This unit will integrate the students' previous knowledge and skills in areas such as project management and ship operations/engineering.
