Most Similar Schools Abroad
- For logistics, marine science and transportations outside the home country, Yokohama National University in Japan is a natural reference; it also offers doctoral programmes and covers nanotechnologies and microbiology and genetics as well.
- Shanghai Maritime University brings a China setting to the same core fields, logistics, marine science and transportations, and it is also a public institution and also offers doctoral programmes.
- For a study option in Japan with a comparable spread of marine science, transportations and geotechnics, Mie University is the reference point: it covers astroscience and aerospace as well, and has almost the same size, at about 7,000 students.
- Seen from abroad, Gdańsk University of Technology (Poland) is a close relative on subject matter, since metrology, marine science and transportations are central to both, and it is also a public institution and also offers doctoral programmes.
- Università degli Studi di Napoli "Parthenope", based in Italy, is built around logistics, marine science and fluid dynamics much like this institution, and it also offers doctoral programmes, and is larger, enrolling about 16,000 students against roughly 7,000 here.
*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
