Understanding The Impact of the Maritime Shipping Industry to a Sustainable Economic Development

Majority of the Maritime teachers belongs to the age bracket of forty-one years old and above. Forty-five percent among them have units in the Masteral program. Around seventy to eighty percent of the Maritime teachers strongly agree that shipping has been an important human activity throughout history, particularly where prosperity depended primarily on international and interregional trade; other important marine transportation activities include passenger transportation (ferries and cruise ships), national defense (Naval vessels), fishing and resource extraction, and navigational service (vessel-assist tugs, harbor maintenance vessels, etc.); and that the Maritime transport is the backbone of the global trade and the global economy. Seventy- three percent agree that the Maritime shipping is considered an environmentally friendly mode of transport. Sixty-four percent among the respondents agree that the importance of shipping in supporting and sustaining today's global society makes it indispensable to the world and to meeting the challenge of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Another sixty-four percent agree that Globalization identified labor markets overseas that encouraged transport of semi-raw materials and intermediate products where manufacturing costs were lower and such that the fuel types used in marine transportation are different from most transportation fuels. Hence, faculty trainings and orientations stretching on the impact of the Maritime industry to a sustainable economic development need to be conducted, both internally and externally from the school campus. The Maritime curriculum indeed has to be revitalized and reinvigorated to suffice the pressing demands of the Maritime industry for economic globalization.&nbsp
