Research projects

Research at ENSM is developed through partnerships, but also by increasing the skills of the teams to meet innovation needs and train future engineers for the maritime economy. Research activities are carried out mainly through European, national or regional collaborative projects, focusing mainly on eco-friendly ship operation, maritime safety and autonomous ships.

Completed Projects

examples of PhDs undertaken at ENSM

Simultaneously, students carry out innovative work based on topics and issues proposed by industry. This approach enables future engineers to apply what they have learnt to innovation and to quickly come into contact with future employers.
