Setting Description:

In the first year, we try to give fresh students a general but solid introduction into the exciting world of Business Management. The idea is that if students do not understand the basic principles of modern management, how could they understand the complicated area of shipping? If, for example, they cannot interpret a statistical chart/graph, how can they appreciate the trends in the shipping industry? All subjects taught in the first year aim at aiding the student to shed light on the ‘grey’ areas in the rather demanding and competitive environment of the 21st Century.
