The Foundation Degree in Nautical Science develops the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed for a Merchant Navy career. Approved by the Merchant Navy Training Board, this three-year programme combines theoretical training with safety training and 12 months' sea-going time, leading to the award of Officer of the Watch (OOW) Certificate of Competency (CoC). Regarded as one of the UK's top nautical institutions, Fleetwood Nautical Campus has strong industry partnerships, which guarantee students excellent employment opportunities. This programme is only available to students sponsored by a shipping company or cadet training provider due to the work-based learning modules, which should be completed on board ships.
