School are in Charge of Dealing with the routine tasks of the School.
The total number of the staff in the School reaches 112, including 25
professors, 27 associate professors, 6 lecturers, 9 assistant,15 senior engineers and
senior laboratory engineers,17 engineers,16 technical workers, 9 officials and official
assistants.
The School of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering
takes the training of qualified personnel in multi-level as one of its main tasks. Besides
the undergraduate programs in corresponding specialties, master and doctor programs have
been established in the related departments and institutes as well as a post-doctorate
program at the school level. Carrying forward the fine tradition of Jiao Tong University
for education, the School devotes much attention not only to training of students in basic
theory and practical experience, but also to the training of students in quality and
ability. Emphasis is laid on strengthening the relevant disciplines and the formation of
qualified teacher teams in the School. Academic research echelons with rational age
composition, led by well-known professors, have been formed in each corresponding branch
of learning.
In order to adapt to the development of the shipbuilding industry and the
exploitation of the ocean, extensive basic and applied researches have been actively
carried out in the School. The School is also engaged in the corresponding industrial
application and development and undertakes many vital research projects for projects for
related state ministries and industrial enterprises actively. The research scope of the
School covers many important areas, for example, merchant ship and warships, exploitation
and production of ocean oil, harbor and coastal engineering, ocean environment and
protection, etc.
The School pays great attention to the international academic exchange
and scientific research cooperation. The School has become a member of the International
towing Tank Conference (ITTC) since 1978 and a member of Advisory Council of ITTC since
1987. Two professors of the School are the technical committee members of the
International Ship and Offshore Structure Conference (ISSC). Good relationship for
academic and personnel exchanges has been established between our School and a lot of
corresponding Schools and/or departments of well-known universities abroad. Recently, the
international research cooperation of the School is increasing, and School gets involved
