About the Diploma 

Are you intrigued with the intricate details of ship models? Dream of designing a vessel yourself one day? You can realise your dream in the maritime industry with the Diploma in Marine & Offshore Technology (MOT)!

Experience a curriculum that focuses on the three main sectors of the maritime industry – ship design and production, ship conversion and offshore technology. You can pursue either the Design Option or Oil & Gas Option in your final year.

High-tech facilities on campus allow you to design and build your ship models and test them in a towing tank. Benefit from MOT’s close collaboration with the industry, especially the ASMI. Frequent study trips and internships – both local and overseas – ensure that you have industry exposure right from the start.

Unique to MOT is the availability of many scholarships. You can vie for the MOT-ASMI scholarship, KC Lee scholarships and Keppel Offshore & Marine scholarships, just to name a few.

To give you an added edge, you can opt for our new Business Management Minor. Delivered by Ngee Ann’s School of Business & Accountancy – the most established polytechnic business school – the business modules will equip you with knowledge and skills in entrepreneurship, management and marketing. A strong engineering foundation in marine and offshore technology and competency in business knowledge will stand you in good stead in your career and degree pursuits. Armed with skills that are well sought-after, you can be sure of a wide range of career options and exciting
opportunities ahead!

So are you ready to captain the marine industry?
