This specialization enables students to obtain specialized knowledge in legal matters relating to the commercial shipping, marine insurance, shipping regulation, and ocean policy. These are areas of great importance to Singapore (given its status as a global port) as well as the region.

Overseas students accepted into this specialization will normally do it full-time within one academic year.

Students working for companies based in Singapore who are supported by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore or other companies will normally do the program part-time and complete it within two academic years.
