The “At Sea” portfolio of work is compiled by students in the BSc Nautical Science programme during Year 2 when they are gaining work experience at sea prior to returning to college to complete their degree.  This award will encourage the development of professional work ethics in maritime students and the NMCI gratefully acknowledge the support of the IMDO for their sponsorship of this award.
