Assigned Department Objectives
Teaching Method
Outline:
The purpose is to understand the outline of the engine system for ships and to train the qualities as an engineer. In this course, students will be able to explain the operating principles of machinery installed on ships, especially diesel engines, turbines and boilers. Students will also learn about the duties of the engineer so that students can imagine working as sailors in the future.
Style:
Lecture is conducted by one teacher.
Notice:
・Results are evaluated in respect to the achievement targets by a combination of examination (75%, midterm and final exams) and report (25%). More than 50% is needed to earn the credit.
・If the score is lower than 50, student can make up the examination by application. When it is admitted to
acquire the credit by make-up examination, the score is 50.
・Required subject (training institution of ship officer) for licensed mariner of 3rd grade (engine)
(a) Output device
(1)Diesel engine
