Maritime transport is an important branch of every economy, especially for countries with access to the seas and oceans. Only in the European Union total gross weight of goods transported in short sea shipping is estimated at almost 1.9 billion tonnes of goods with an increase of 2.6 % from the previous year and worldwide maritime transport is estimated at over 10.8 billion tons of goods and with every year it is increasing. Thanks to such good results, specialists from maritime faculties after solid studies are and will be long sought in the labor market and they will be rewarded accordingly for their knowledge, which is why starting a maritime studies at this time is an excellent life decision for many young people.
