Exploring the "Navigation+" Interdisciplinary Talent Cultivation Model in the Context of New Engineering

Abstract

The New Engineering Education initiative emphasizes "innovative engineering education aligned with industrial demands, " providing a strategic roadmap for maritime education to overcome traditional single-skilled training limitations. As the global shipping industry transitions toward intelligent, green, and cross-disciplinary integration, "Maritime+" professionalsindividuals who master core maritime competencies while acquiring expertise in smart technologies, green energy, and cross-border logisticshave become essential industry talents.
This paper analyzes the practical necessity of cultivating "Maritime+" professionals through the New Engineering Education framework's core
principles: cross-disciplinary integration, industry-education collaboration, and innovation-driven development. It identifies shortcomings in
current training models and proposes concrete pathways through four dimensions: curriculum restructuring, practical platform development,
faculty team building, and evaluation mechanism optimization. The study aims to provide maritime institutions with actionable references for
adapting to New Engineering Education requirements and delivering industry-ready interdisciplinary talents.
