The newly established Department of Shipping within the Faculty of Management and Economics will offer its first purely oriented shipping programs in the academic year 2023-2024. The Department of Shipping is new; however, the discipline of shipping was part of the Cyprus University of Technology since its inception. The discipline has achieved an excellent track record in terms of the level of its graduates and has gained the respect of the local industry. As the only public university to offer unrivalled quality education in shipping, logistics and transportation, the Department of Shipping is well placed to capitalize on the arising external opportunities to bolster its position and create value for aspiring students, graduates and stakeholders.

In preparing for the next leap in its development, the Department and its people would be eager to hear from interested parties how mutual value can be created in this fathomless field. In addition, it is eager to provide well-substantiated support to the pertinent government bodies in developing and implementing holistic and integrated maritime policies, which will have a positive impact on the national economy, since the shipping sector is continuously flourishing and will always be a key pillar of the Cypriot and international economy.
