Programme description

International Maritime Management …

… is flexible in time

IMM is a cooperative programme of work and study and lets you choose how many learning modules you want to study each semester. You are also welcome to interrupt your studies should professional and/or private duties prevail. Most students study five semesters on a part-time basis in order to complete their IMM studies.

… can be studied anywhere you want, even on board your ship

IMM is mainly based on distance learning, which means that most modules are completed by handing in home assignments. Attendance phases are reduced to one day (voluntary) in Elsfleth and can be organised flexibly.

… integrates your professional interests

IMM follows a learner-centred approach, which means that you acquire theoretical knowledge by means of course books. These didactically prepared texts enable you to combine existing professional knowledge with new academic knowledge. For this purpose, real-life projects and cases arising from your own professional contexts are processed and solved; theoretical and practical issues go "hand-in-hand". During the learning process, you will apply new methods and exchange ideas with your peers by means of student forums. Guidance/support is provided by us – your lecturers.
