“…Observations within the Maritime Institute underscored a vibrant linguistic environment where English is the medium of instruction. However, a notable variance was observed in the degree of engagement and enthusiasm among cadets (Brenker et al, 2017). While some exhibited a proactive approach, seamlessly integrating English into their daily interactions, others demonstrated a more perfunctory engagement, seemingly viewing English as a compulsory rather than an integral aspect of their maritime education.…”

This study delves into the intricate landscape of English literacy and communication needs among first-semester cadets at the Maritime Institute in Jakarta. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive approach in conjunction with document analysis, phenomenological observation, and strategic filling distribution, the research uncovers compelling insights into the challenges and aspirations within maritime education. Document analysis indicates a distinct emphasis on technical proficiency in Maritime English, yet a noticeable gap exists in addressing socio-pragmatic aspects of communication. Phenomenological observation reveals a spectrum of cadet engagement levels, prompting a critical re-evaluation of pedagogical strategies. Strategic filling distribution brings to light a disparity between perceived theoretical relevance and the practical application of English, advocating for a more scenario-based approach to language learning. The implications underscore the necessity for a paradigm shift in curriculum development and pedagogical practices. Recommendations propose curricular enhancement, pedagogical innovation, and industry collaboration to align educational objectives with the dynamic demands of the maritime sector. In conclusion, this research functions as a catalyst for transformative change in maritime language education, urging stakeholders to navigate towards a more comprehensive, industry-oriented approach that equips cadets with the nuanced proficiency demanded by real-world maritime scenarios

“…The study focuses on a randomly selected sample of 100 cadets, each situated in their Second Semester across the three majors -Nautical, Technical, and Port and Shipping Management. This purposive sampling strategy ensures a representative cross-section of the cadet population, offering insights into the nuances of each major's educational landscape (Brenker et al, 2017;Merriam & Grenier, 2019). The diverse perspectives of cadets contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the educational framework at Maritime Institute Jakarta.…”

This research investigates the integration of Urban Environmental Quality, Materials and Resource Management, and Green and Sustainable Environment within the international maritime education framework at Sekolah Tinggi Ilmu Pelayaran (STIP Jakarta/ Maritime Institute of Jakarta). The study explores cadet experiences in Nautical, Technical, and Port and Shipping Management Majors, analysing theoretical foundations, curriculum satisfaction, practical training, and the incorporation of Environmental Science elements. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive approach, data is gathered through document analysis and self-reported reflections from 100 randomly selected cadets. The findings reveal distinct dynamics across majors, indicating a strong alignment between theoretical foundations and curriculum satisfaction. However, variations exist in the emphasis on practical training and the integration of Environmental Science elements. Port and Shipping Management Majors stand out with a notable commitment to sustainability principles, while Nautical and Technical Majors show potential areas for enhancement. The implications for future research underscore the need for ongoing refinements in curricula to address the evolving demands of the maritime industry. The study contributes to the scholarly discourse on international maritime education, providing insights for academic institutions to foster environmentally conscious and globally competent maritime professionals.

“…Besides, technology adoption, digitalization, and automation are also the challenges that the maritime industry frequently faces. Thus, they need to adopt new technologies to improve efficiency, productivity, and competitiveness (Rauf et al, 2023;Brenker et al, 2017).…”

In management practise and research, the university-maritime industry collaborations (UMICs) have grown in significance. This trend is reinforced by the necessity for innovation in the current industry environment and the desire of policymakers to commercialise knowledge from academia. Much less is known about these collaborations, although significant research efforts have been made to identify the success factors for these collaborations. Therefore, the aim of this study is to identify and explore the key factors that strengthen UMICs and propose a framework to enhance collaboration, so that a research agenda for the future will be developed based on an assessment of the existing literature. This study adopted a method of systematic literature review using published and unpublished theoretical literature to conduct analysis using five research databases in order to propose a framework aimed at identifying the key factors to strengthen UMICs. The findings of this study concluded that effective communication, trust, and adequate fund resources are essential for UMICs to succeed. Open communication channels, mutual trust, and shared vision can help build strong partnerships, while adequate funding can support research and development of new technologies, practices, and solutions. Based on previous research, none of them treated combined fund resources, effective communication, and trust as an independent variables towards UMICs relationship specifically. Hence, this study fills the gap by proposing a framework to test the relationship between fund resources, effective communication, and trust towards UMICs. Thus, the proposed framework can be used as a benchmark to strengthen UMICs in the future. This study also will encourage the managers in the maritime industry to drive innovation, establish strategic collaborations, actively involve stakeholders, and foster innovation and economic growth in the maritime industry to strengthen UMICs. The existing limited body of knowledge and literature will also benefit from this study.
