MUSTC Offshore Training Centre is a modern teaching and research facility that provides specialised training for students and staff at the University. Its facilities are also used by representatives of other universities, emergency services (SAR, Voluntary Water Rescue Service, Fire Department, Police), and professionals from the offshore sector.

The Academic Simulators Centre is located on the site of a former parking lot at the Maritime University of Szczecin on Jarowita Street, behind the university’s historic building. The facility has a total surface area of approx. 667 m². The building houses state-of-the-art simulators used for training and developing the skills required in the rapidly evolving field of maritime shipping. Classes and training sessions are conducted in accordance with the highest international standards. Students, as well as deck officers, engineers, electrical and automation engineers, navigators, and DP operators, enhance their skills and competencies on DP bridge simulators (with the option of training on azimuth thrusters in emergencies) and ship engine room simulators integrated with the Central Manoeuvring and Control Station (CMK) simulator.

In addition, the Polish Maritime Rescue Training Centre project has received substantial government support, allowing for an expansion of this key facility that will train highly qualified personnel for maritime safety, inland navigation, geodesy, and related fields.
Other ongoing investments include the Maritime Research and Development Centre and the training wind turbine facility, both designed to broaden practical training opportunities and respond to industry needs.
These developments underscore strategic focus on modern, practice-oriented education and its role as a leader in maritime training and research.
New building for the Faculty of Mechatronics and Electrical Engineering
One of the most notable milestones was the official opening of the new building for FMEE, a state-of-the-art facility that brings together advanced laboratories and workshops for students in mechatronics, automation, and robotics. This investment significantly enhances the university’s technical training capabilities and fosters further innovation. This investment brings together laboratories that were previously scattered across different locations. It is here that projects will be developed to support the maritime, energy, and automation industries. The building will house modern laboratories equipped with workstations for, among other things, programming digital twins, automatic power distribution control systems used in power plants, and electrolysis and hydrogen storage and a laboratory for processing data from a wind turbine installed nearby.More photos from the opening ceremony.
New training centres
MUS also continues to develop specialised training centres, such as MUSTC Offshore Training Centre, the Academic Simulators Centre and Polish Maritime Rescue Training Centre, providing students with access to cutting-edge simulation and hands-on learning environments.MUSTC Offshore Training Centre is a modern teaching and research facility that provides specialised training for students and staff at the University. Its facilities are also used by representatives of other universities, emergency services (SAR, Voluntary Water Rescue Service, Fire Department, Police), and professionals from the offshore sector.
The OTC consists of over a dozen key pieces of equipment and installations. These include, among others:
- a 4-meter-deep training pool with a storm simulator, including a wave and wind generator, a sound system, and strobe lighting
- a heavy fog generator
- a rescue boat equipped with a marine compressed-air flip-up system
- a gravity-launched rescue boat
- steel platforms for escape chute, evacuation drills and training in transfers to offshore wind farms
- a platform for working-at-height training
- a davit with a submersible helicopter cabin for HUET training (crew evacuation from a sinking helicopter).
