Jacket and Monopile Engineering Course — σπουδές από Κύπρος
Η ναυτιλία αποτελεί έναν από τους σημαντικότερους τομείς της Κύπρου, με μεγάλο στόλο υπό κυπριακή σημαία, ναυτιλιακές εταιρείες διαχείρισης και υπηρεσίες ναυτικής τεχνολογίας. Η Λεμεσός και η Λάρνακα είναι βασικά λιμάνια και κόμβοι για ναυτιλιακές υπηρεσίες. Η ανάπτυξη της υπεράκτιας εξόρυξης φυσικού αερίου στην Αποκλειστική Οικονομική Ζώνη ενισχύει τη ζήτηση για μηχανικούς offshore. Οι εργοδότες περιλαμβάνουν ναυτιλιακές εταιρείες, ναυπηγεία, λιμενικές αρχές και εταιρείες ενέργειας.
Δίδακτρα για Κύπρος: 448 € (Ευρώ), με δυνατότητα δόσεων και εταιρικής χορηγίας.

Ερωτήσεις από Κύπρος
Ποιος ρυθμίζει τα ναυτικά επαγγέλματα και τη ναυπηγική στην Κύπρο;
Στην Κύπρο η ναυτιλία και τα ναυτικά θέματα εποπτεύονται από το Τμήμα Εμπορικής Ναυτιλίας, το οποίο χορηγεί και τις επίσημες ναυτικές άδειες. Τα προσόντα του SEIUM δεν είναι κρατικός τίτλος ούτε αντικαθιστούν τις απαιτούμενες άδειες. Η αναγνώρισή τους εξαρτάται από τον εργοδότη.
Σε ποιους εργοδότες στην Κύπρο είναι χρήσιμη η ειδίκευση σε ναυτικά και υπεράκτια συστήματα;
Η ειδίκευση μπορεί να φανεί χρήσιμη σε ναυτιλιακές εταιρείες, σε ναυπηγεία και ναυτικά συνεργεία, σε εταιρείες υπεράκτιων έργων και σε εταιρείες εξοπλισμού ναυτικών αθλημάτων. Η συνάφεια εξαρτάται από τον ρόλο και από την προηγούμενη εμπειρία σας.
Χρειάζεται φοιτητική βίζα ή ειδική άδεια για να σπουδάσω από την Κύπρο;
Επειδή το πρόγραμμα είναι 100% online και διδάσκεται στα αγγλικά, δεν απαιτείται φοιτητική βίζα για να σπουδάσετε από την Κύπρο. Ο φόρτος υπολογίζεται σε ώρες ανά πρόγραμμα, έχετε έναν τεχνικό σύμβουλο και μπορείτε να ζητήσετε εργοδοτική χρηματοδότηση, με τα δίδακτρα να καταβάλλονται σε δόσεις.

How you'll learn
Fully 100% online training on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and an assigned technical tutor. No fixed timetable: students progress at their own pace within the intake, which makes it possible to combine with work.
Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is Bentley SACS, Plaxis 3D, OpenFAST, DNV Sesam, Abaqus, in free, academic or evaluation versions. The exercises work through real geotechnical design procedures for a monopile, fatigue analysis of tubular joints and pile driving planning. Assessment is continuous per module plus the final integrating project.
Build it end to end
Your final project follows the real engineering workflow, step by step, reviewed by your tutor.
Select between monopile and jacket according to water depth, soil and wind turbine.
Design piles using p-y and PISA methods based on geotechnical data.
Size a monopile against buckling, natural frequencies and fatigue.
