Thisand other related courses in the area of technology should be developed if this program is toremain competitive.Another course that is currently taught in the department on the under-graduate level is DataProcessing Systems Engineering. Several other programs teach a similar course on the graduatelevel. Restructuring this course and adding it to the graduate curriculum would also be avaluable addition to the MSEM program.

At the same time, certain functions of the reduced crew should beperformed now by engineers ashore, which leads to an increase of their number. Moreover,engine room automation leads to increased volume of shipyard repairs. In addition, ships arebecoming more complex and automated. Engineering officers on board and ashore areincreasingly responsible for managing a wide range of activities related to ship operation, repairand maintenance and would benefit from an economics and engineering management training
