Education

Educational activities

One of the functions of a University Research Institute is to provide postgraduate teaching, i.e., Master's and Doctorate degrees. The Institute of Oceanic Engineering, due to its youth, is not responsible for formal teaching curricula. Nevertheless, its members have directed and are directing a good number of doctoral theses.

The researchers of the Institute are professors in these Doctoral Programs:

• D.P. in Mechanical Engineering and Energy Efficiency
• D.P. in Mechatronics Engineering
• D.P. in Telecommunication Engineering

International Mobility

The Institute has mobility activities with researchers and students from different international universities:

• Mehran University of Engineering & Technology, Jamshoro, Pakistan.
• Bahria University, Islamabad, Pakistan
• National University of Sciences & Technology (NUST), Islamabad, Pakistan
• Sir Syed University of Engineering & Technology, Karachi, Pakistan
• Institut Mines-Télécomm (IMT-Nord), Université de Lille, Lille, France
• University College of Aviation and Technology, Tunis Carthage, Tunisia
• Polytechnic University of Bucharest, Bucharest, Romania

In addition, the universities listed below in the Erasmus+ KA2 projects.
