Acquaintanceship Practice: one week; mainly the Social Observation Practice which is about the operation of manufacture enterprises and ship related enterprises
Engineering Internship: three weeks; mainly the business practice of shipping enterprises

3. Operate on Computer
This practice contains 216 hours, among which 171 are class operation hours.

4. Course Design
One course design for a week: deign a complete shipping stowage related to Ship Cargo Stowage

5. Undergraduate Project
Undergraduate Project (Thesis) must be related to real situation of engineering. And the workload and quality of the project will be evaluated according to related documents.

6. Out-Class Practice
Out-class practice is compulsory. Students must gain 4 or more credits in this practice. The specified items are as following:
(1) Take part in social investigation and social practice and submit study paper or report. After the positive evaluation from the education committee, students are able to gain their credits (1~2 credits).
(2) Take part in science research. Students who publish an article in international magazines or conferences may gain 5 credits, in domestic magazines may gain 3 credits, and in domestic conference may gain 2 credits. Students who finish their research reports may gain 1 credit. (must be applied by their advisors)
(3) Take part in explorations or innovations of science and technology in society or in the university, such as the Challenge Cup. 1~5 Credits will be offered according to the prizes gained by the education committee.
(4) Take part in the activities of SCNAME Student Branch.
