Dept. Of Shipping and Maritime Science
Bangladesh is among the largest and most innovative shipping nations in the world. The maritime industry is very strong in Bangladesh and provides the basis for maritime competence worldwide, as well as opportunities for innovation and strengthening of a key industry both at sea and in land-based positions. The program offers two alternative specializations, one Nautical and one Engineering. The program focuses on key challenges and issues within the maritime industry. Some courses focus exclusively on the maritime industry, while other course units are more generic. The program also covers management and leadership skills. The program is designed to provide a broad understanding of topics that are specifically related to the maritime industry.
Here we have a dream, that is to make the department as one of the best in this area in terms of providing true industry-based knowledge, outstanding research excellence and preparing students for real life world. Our courses are UGC approved and structured in such a way to guide the student competent in the world.
Academics
Total Credit: Major in Nautical:150 Credits
Total Credit: Major in Engineering:150 Credits
B.Sc. in Shipping & Maritime Science
Undergraduate Program
For admission into undergraduate programs in the Department of Shipping and Maritime Science (SMS), candidate must meet following conditions in compliance with UGC.
Have science background with Physics, Chemistry, Math (PCM) and minimum GPA 2.5 in both SSC and HSC level; or
Must have minimum 5 subjects including PCM in O-level and 2 subjects in A-level, among them minimum grade B in at least 4 subjects and minimum grade C in at least other 3 subjects in science group.
Must appear in admission test and qualify for admission.
Requirements for Graduation
To obtain the degree in Bachelor of Shipping and Maritime Science (abbreviated as B. Sc. in SMS) a student will have to complete at least 150.00 Credit Hours including assigned projects and training and must pass all the required courses, have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.20. Student must also meet all the financial obligations to the university to become qualified for the degree. If any student fails in any course, he/she will get the opportunity to improve the grade by retaking the same in the subsequent trimesters like other regular students.
The requirement for obtaining 150.00 credit hours in the university is sufficient enough compared with the minimum requirement of international standard and UGC guidelines.
Credit Transfer:
Transfer Students:
Credit transfer shall be allowed only from the approved universities. A student transferring credit from another approved university or based on equivalence given by UGC to CUB may be exempted or waived maximum 50% credit hours if he/she meets all of the following conditions:
CGPA 3.00 or above in the completed courses;
Exemption in any course requires that the student scored GPA 3.00 or above
