Ongoing Projects

Providing simulators and technical equipment support to Mersin University Maritime Vocational School which currently provides education at Mersin University's Tece Campus, Mersin Chamber of Shipping undertook the construction of the Maritime Faculty with a new and modern education faculty in the Mersin University’s central campus to enable maritime students to fully acquire the competencies required by the profession and to receive education in a modern and well-equipped faculty as well. The rough construction of the faculty was completed in 2022; whose preparation, research, project design and tender processes were completed in earlier stages. Final acceptance of the project has been made and the trim works started in 2023. Mersin University MDTO Maritime Faculty project was completed in April 2024. Mersin University MDTO Maritime Faculty was built in accordance with the STCW convention published by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) which sets the standards of maritime education and training. A meticulous focus was given to the utilization of high-level technology and quality of materials. The faculty which will bear the name of our Chamber, was delivered to Mersin University as a large educational complex with 16,500 square meters of indoor and 8,000 square meters of outdoor space, laboratories, simulation centers and a training pool where sea survival training will be given.
