The College of Shipbuilding Engineering has been enrolling international students since 1997. With the strong rise of China's shipbuilding industry, the College of Shipbuilding Engineering has cultivated a large number of outstanding oversea talents for “the Belt and Road” countries in addition to developingexcellent talents for China's shipbuilding industry. Up to now, the college has admitted 77 (17 Doctorates, 60 Masters) oversea students from Pakistan (44), Algeria (10), Thailand (6), Kenya (5), South Korea (1), etc.

The doctorate course in the college is 4 years. It aims at cultivating students with scientific qualities, good professional ethics, a sense of teamwork, and adherence to the truth. Students should master both solid and broad basic theory and systematic and in-depth expertise in the design and construction of naval architecture and ocean structures. Also, they are required to have an in-depth understanding of the state of the art and academic development direction of the discipline. Based on that, they can engage in innovative frontiers research in this discipline and comprehensively apply their professional knowledge to solve related scientific and engineering problems, so as to make creative achievements in science and technology. Strong theoretical analysis, numerical calculation, and experimental ability are also required. The doctorate curriculum finished in one semester. The total credits for the doctorate course are 12 credits, including 9 credits for compulsory courses and 3 credits for comprehensive courses.

Major Courses:

1. Advanced Hydrodynamics

2. Advanced Structural Mechanics

3. High-performance Ship Hydrodynamics

4. Ocean Engineering Wave Loads

The Master's  course in the college is 3 years. It aims at cultivating students with scientific qualities, good professional ethics, a sense of teamwork, and adherence to the truth. Students should master both solid basic theory and systematic and in-depth expertise in theory and method in the design and construction of naval architecture and ocean structures. Also, they are required to have an in-depth understanding of the state of the art and development direction of the discipline. Based on that, they are able to work in scientific research or independently undertake specialized technical work. With related experimental ability, mastering basic testing technology, data analysis, and computer programming skills, they can apply the basic and professional knowledge to solve related scientific and engineering problems. The master curriculum consists of two semesters.
