Chinese inland-waterway emphasis.

Wuhan University of Technology (WUT), in Hubei, China, runs maritime education through its School of Navigation, which has trained navigators, pilots, and shipping managers for decades, with a strong inland-waterway and Yangtze-river emphasis reflecting Wuhan’s position on China’s largest inland shipping artery. Programs cover navigation technology and maritime management with simulator and seamanship training mapped to STCW 1978 as amended (Manila 2010). WUT is a broad engineering university, not a dedicated maritime academy.
