Abstract

The shipping industry is undergoing a profound transformation centered on green development, low-carbonization, and intellectualization. Aiming at core problems such as the disconnection between traditional training models and cutting-edge industrial demands, as well as the mismatch between students’ diversified development needs and single rigid training programs, this study systematically analyzes the global development trend of intelligent shipping and comprehensively reviews the current situation of domestic maritime education. Drawing on advanced experience in classified talent training and deep integration of industry and education from world-class universities, it proposes a systematic reform path. The study points out that the transformation and development of the maritime technology major must firmly anchor on the direction of “intelligentization, digitalization, and integration”, with the core being to construct a new talent training system aimed at cultivating “intelligent decision-making ability” and “cross-border integration literacy”. Key reform measures include reconstructing “intelligence +” curriculum modules, innovating a stepped practical teaching model of “virtual-real integration”, and deepening the collaborative education mechanism of “school-enterprise dual subjects”.
