The Autonomous ships are equipped with a function to judge and navigate the sea conditions on their own, so the job of the ship officer who operates it changes. The educational curriculum to nurture ship officer with the ability to operate and manage autonomous ships must also be changed. This study aimed to develop the curriculum for training autonomous ship officer by using the Delphi survey method suitable for predicting the uncertain future. Among the current 61 subjects for training ship officer identified in the Delphi survey, 32 subjects with high importance should be maintained in the training for autonomous ship officer, and subjects with low importance should be abolished or integrated into other subjects. These subjects were collectively referred to as 'general courses'. The expert panel of the Delphi survey suggested 42 items as new subjects, with 18 items of 'high', 14 items of 'middle', and 10 items of 'low'. Through in-depth analysis of these items by experts, 27 subjects were adjusted and three courses were proposed : 1)'Basic course(10 courses)' for developing basic capabilities such as basic theories for understanding advanced technology and information applied to autonomous ships, 2)'Job course(10 courses)' for practical competency directly related to autonomous ship operation, 3)'Intensive course(7 subjects)' for fostering land remote operators of autonomous ships. Since the introduction and spread of autonomous ships will progress rapidly, research to develop and supplement autonomous ship pilot training courses should be continued by reflecting the level of autonomous navigation of autonomous ships.

Recently maritime colleges in Korea have confronted with many difficulties on account of changes of educational circumstance such as increasing the number of low-wage foreign officers on board Korea-registered vessels, weakening international competitive power, avoiding reaction in the field of 3D occupational category etc. Therefore, We are drawing up a efficient educational system cultivating the well-trained marine officers who will take a more active role in the ear of 21C marine revolution The questionnaire was composed of 5 courses-entrance into a school, classwork, campus life, on-board training, choosing occupations and conducted the questionnaire survey of students in Maritime College in Korea Maritime University. And the analysis was carried out to understand the changes of student's consciousness structure and find out the problems of current maritime education system.

In spite of advanced navigational devices and reinforced mandatory standards of officers' education, the number of ship's accidents are increasing. The accidents caused by minor license officers are more than the number of accidents caused by superior license officers. There are many cases of collisions in the past 5 years released on Marine Accidents Inquiry Agency. Especially, officer's negligence from the consequences of the neglect of any precaution which may be required by the ordinary practice of seamen is the main reason behind ship's collisions. For reducing ship's accidents caused by human error, this paper suggests to develop effective training program using analysis date of domestic and foreign education system as a reference.

In 2010 Manila Conference, the revised STCW (International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watch-keeping for Seafarers) of IMO recalled that a large percentage of maritime casualties and pollution incidents are caused by human error. Therefore, education and training improvement will play important role to reduce maritime casualties. From this, we focus on improving safety during sailing through upgrading the education and training for Korean cadets by updating maritime education and training program. In terms of a maritime education program from some of the maritime universities in the world such as United States Merchant Maritime Academy(USMMA) Philippine Merchant Marine Academy(PMMA), are compared to the Maritime University in Korea. As a result, we suggest an effective education system.

우리나라를 비롯한 전 세계의 최근 물동량 증가로 우리나라 항만에 입출항 척수가 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 이로 인해 연안 해역뿐만 아니라 원양 해역에서도 선박간의 조우 상황이 다수 발생하고 있으며, 특히 국내 연안 해역은 빈번한 선박 조우로 인한 해양사고 발생이 상당히 빈번하게 발생하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 선박 및 해양 관련 업무 종사자들의 인적과실로 인한 해양사고를 예방하고, 해기인력의 질 향상을 위한 기초연구에 그 목적이 있다. 또한 이 연구를 통하여 해기인력의 해양사고예방을 위한 기존 시스템의 하드웨어 및 소프트웨어적인 측면에서 미흡한 부분을 보완하는 자료로 활용하고, 해기인력의 운항능력향상에 중점을 둔 기존 IT기반 시뮬레이터의 문제점과 개선 방안 등을 기초로 향후 해양사고 예방용 통합 시뮬레이션 개발의 주요자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

This study conducted a self-assessment survey on 50 evaluation items for students majoring nautical science who boarded H University training ships in order to ascertain the degree of improvement in their maritime ability according to the STCW agreement and training period. The trainees' maritime competence and basic understanding of maritime functions were evaluated, and an in-depth analysis was conducted to see how these have changed since their embarkation. The analysis showed a significant improvement in their understanding of maritime functions after the third evaluation in both the first and second semesters. The results also showed areas the trainees need to improve on for each semester's embarkation group, and an additional study plan is needed to make up for the lack of nautical skills in the training course. The result of analysis on the degree of improvement of maritime ability according to the training period of training ships derived from this study can be used for the reorganization of training ships and maritime college curriculum in the future.

This paper investigates the mandatory minimum requirements for certification of officers in charge of a navigational watch on ship specified in the international convention of STCW. The training education and evaluation systems for navigational competence of Korean navy were compared and analyzed. The paper suggests adjustment of the evaluation range, increment of evaluation items, diversification of evaluation types, differentiation of certification-related education by officer's commissioning program in order to improve the PQS system.

PBL is a student-centered pedagogy in which students learn about a subject through the experience of problem solving. Marine engineer is the expert which supports the safe navigation and solves the problems could happen in independent situation as a ship. This study executed the fundamental study on the maritime training education for marine engineers using PBL. In this study, we conducted the survey on 56 students for 6 months using PBL in H university. The result showed the improvement on ability to solve the problems, interpersonal relationship, communication skill, synthetic thinking faculty and practical use of data but some students answered the complaint of the insufficient information and unacquainted learning method of PBL. This suggested the development and improvement plans for the maritime training education using PBL based on this fundamental study.
