unique course speaks volumes about its quality and
deserved international reputation.
Designed primarily to support the valuable and
important work that marine surveyors around the

have the academic ability and an interest in learning
about marine surveying.
The syllabus includes essential technical requirements
such as naval architecture, structural surveys and
engineering, up to date legislative and regulation
content as well as key business skills such as report
writing and budgeting competencies. With your

diploma to your role or interest, this course provides
the knowledge to assist in your personal and
professional development towards becoming an
informed, professional marine surveyor. Students
must select one specialist module to complete the
diploma, but additional specialist modules can be
studied to gain knowledge in other areas.
In order to enhance your career even further on
completing your diploma, you have the opportunity
to top up your qualification to an MSc in Marine
Surveying by distance learning. This top up
qualification, offered jointly with Lloyds Maritime
Academy and Middlesex University, provides essential
strategic and management skills on top of the technical
know-how gained through this Diploma as well your
own work experience.
The maritime world is truly international and in
order to give marine surveyors and seafarers every
opportunity to study, distance learning is the
chosen method of delivery. Eliminating geographical
boundaries and barriers, modules are delivered via
the dedicated course website. Students can access the
modules wherever they are in the world and have the
