Maritime Security and MET

This volume collects the papers presented at the 2005 Annual General Assembly and Conference of the International Association of Maritime Universities (IAMU), which was held in Malmo, Sweden from the 24 to the 26th of October 2005. The conference was hosted by the World Maritime University. Section 1 presents interim and final reports on several research projects funded by the IAMU. Section 2 presents a broad range of academic papers on the theme of Maritime Security and MET. These range from the challenges faced by MET institutions worldwide in incorporating the new topic of maritime security into their syllabi, to the economic costs of the new maritime security regime to the shipping industry and to ports. Other topics are also covered that include the technical means of monitoring the movements of ships, and the social implications for seafarers on board ships. Section 3 includes papers on a variety of current MET issues, such as bridge resource management, quality management in ET, careers at sea, and ship handling and marine engineering simulators.
