Abstract

This paper explores the implementation of safety culture in maritime education through the introduction of life simulation aboard ships, as practiced at Politeknik Ilmu Pelayaran. The initiative addresses the significant contribution of human error to maritime accidents, advocating for an innovative educational approach that incorporates real-world safety practices from the maritime industry. By simulating life onboard a ship, this approach seeks to instill a safety-first mindset among maritime students from the outset of their training. The study examines the integration of international standards such as SOLAS, ISM, ISPS, and STCW into the educational framework, highlighting the potential of such simulations to enhance the competencies of future seafarers. The findings suggest that the simulation program not only improves students’ practical skills but also fosters a deeper understanding of safety protocols, which are crucial in minimizing accidents at sea.
