PhD Students


Maritime Education Director Derek Lambert successfully defended his Doctorate in Philosophy of Maritime Affairs (specialising in digital learning systems, and developing learning methods for Marine Engineering students) in September 2017, at the World Maritime University in Malmo, Sweden.  

The graduation ceremony was held on the 5th November 2017  at the concert hall in Malmo Sweden; an event well attended by family and freinds of students from 48 countries around the world.

This acheivement further helps to aid the development of blended learning practices for South African Marine Engineers, and to increase academic capacity within the maritime industry in South Africa.
