Australian Maritime College

The Australian Maritime College is an institute of the University of Tasmania

The AMC is a truly international organization, ranking amongst the top maritime higher education institutions in the world.

AMC is committed to providing students with the best range of practical learning and industry-related experience. 

The maritime industry is an exciting and diverse area and employers rely on the AMC to supply highly skilled and job-ready graduates through quality teaching and learning, and industry relevant courses.

AMC courses are designed for careers. The AMC's graduate employment rate approaches 100% because AMC has the support of industry and boasts a unique suite of world class research facilities. Close relationships with the largest employers in the maritime industry ensure ongoing and expanding opportunities for our graduates.

Following the integration with UTAS beginning in 2007, the new-look AMC is even better placed to enjoy all the advantages that come from focusing on teaching and research work around three national centres:

The National Centre for Maritime Engineering and Hydrodynamics

The National Centre for Ports and Shipping

The National Centre for Marine Conservation and Resource Sustainability
