What is Algorithmic Era

Sustainable development in maritime education and training can be seen as an innovative approach to educational change in line with higher education for sustainable development initiatives worldwide. This chapter presents a joint Philippines-Romanian study aimed to determine students' perspectives on relevant issues surrounding sustainability, such as their conception, awareness, attitude, commitment, and experiences relevant to sustainable development. Integrated complementary aspects regarding the digitalization needed for the next type of maritime leader were integrated in the study. Data were gathered using a research-made questionnaire validated by internal and external experts and was pilot tested. These were then analyzed using appropriate descriptive statistics. Results suggest that students have a relatively good understanding of sustainability. The majority of them have a positive attitude towards sustainable development and have reflected their experiences on quality education, clean water and sanitation, and affordable and clean energy, among others.
