Engine Resource Management (ERM) was introduced by the STCW 2010 Manila amendments, to address a long felt need in the marine engineering curriculum. Over the years the role of the operational engineer in the engine room has changed substantially. The advancement in technology has led to more reliable yet sophisticated equipment and plant in the engine room which subsequently resulted in reducing...

The dissertation is the central part of the Honours year of study, and is likely to be the most demanding part of the year’s work. It is also likely to be the most rewarding, as it brings students to the cutting edge of the discipline and enables them to begin to contribute to the expansion and refinement of knowledge in their chosen career field. The dissertation will involve an individual...
