1 In accordance with the provisions of the Charter of the World Maritime University (WMU), a report on the work of the University is submitted to the Council annually by the Secretary-General in his capacity as Chancellor of the University. The draft report of WMU’s Board of Governors, covering the 2006 calendar year, is provided at annex. The report will be considered by them at their meeting on 29 May 2007 and any amendments thereto will be reported by the Secretary-General verbally. 2 The Secretary-General wishes to express his appreciation to the Board of Governors for their help, support and guidance during the past year, which contributed to the University continuing to be a centre of excellence for advanced maritime education, training and research; and for it to continue providing, through co-operation, high quality services to the global maritime community. He also expresses his appreciation to the President and the University’s academic and administrative staff for their dedicated work, co-operation and support. 3 As the Council knows, the University is financed to a great extent through annual voluntary contributions from a relatively small number of countries and organizations; and, in this regard, the Secretary-General, in addition to recognizing the contribution of them all, wishes to reiterate the Organization’s gratitude to the Government of Sweden and the City of Malmö for the support and hospitality they generously provide to the University and its students. 4 The Secretary-General further wishes to pay special tribute to the generosity of the Nippon Foundation and the Ocean Policy Research Foundation of Japan; the Government of Norway; the International Transport Workers’ Federation; the Governments of Canada, Denmark, France, the Republic of Korea and the United Kingdom; and to Inmarsat Global Ltd. He also wishes to thank other governments and organizations, which contribute to the budget of the University or provide fellowships; and also thank the visiting professors and those who provide field study opportunities or make donations of any sort. For reasons of economy, this document is printed in a limited number. Delegates are kindly asked to bring their copies to meetings and not to request additional copies.

5 2006 has been an extremely successful year for the University with significant achievements including the further strengthening of the academic programme, the success of its global outreach programmes and rising enrolment and graduation figures. 6 These achievements have been underpinned by quality and independent external validation while institutional standards have been guaranteed by an effective system of both internal and external quality assurance. 7 Notwithstanding these successes, an independent external review was initiated last year to provide an objective assessment of the adequacy of the University’s governance and managerial capacity to meet emerging demands within the international maritime sector and thus further enhance the efficiency of the University. The Council will be advised of the outcome of the review in due course. Action requested of the Council 8 The Council is invited to take note of the annexed draft Annual Report of the World Maritime University for the 2006 calendar year (and any updating provided by the Secretary-General during the session) and to comment, as it may deem appropriate. ***

C 98/15(a) ANNEX DRAFT REPORT OF THE BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF THE WORLD MARITIME UNIVERSITY TO THE IMO COUNCIL Introduction 1 This is the twenty-third Annual Report on the University, covering the 2006 calendar year. 2 It details the advances made in 2006, which build on and extend the work of the previous two decades; the World Maritime University is enjoying the fruits of strategies developed in previous years. It also details the preparation being undertaken to allow for further developments and continued progress. 3 The University’s academic output, in terms of student enrolment, research, consultancy work and academic publication, reached its highest ever level in 2006, an achievement that has taken place with the support of an extensive programme of quality assurance covering all aspects of the University’s activities. A Banner Year 4 In response to emerging trends, developments and challenges in the international educational and industry environment in which it operates, the University has changed substantially since the beginning of the new century. 5 Developments in 2006 were firmly based on the reforms carried out during the period 2000 to 2005. With the support of its international Board of Governors and senior staff from universities around the world, WMU has continued to enhance its academic profile and its global role. 6 By standard university performance indicators, WMU would be judged to have had the best year ever in 2006, breaking many of its own records: •

WMU’s global student body of 1,115 in 2006 from the Malmö, Shanghai, Dalian campuses, its distance-learning programme and the Professional Development Courses (PDCs) is the largest number ever recorded to date. This record total comprised 409 nationals trained in the postgraduate programmes in the campuses and by distance learning while another 706 attended PDCs in Malmö and at client locations around the world;

•

the 206 graduates of 2006 from the three campuses and its distance-learning programme also represented the greatest number of students ever to have attained WMU qualifications in a single year;

•

the portfolio of academic programmes was expanded by the addition of the new Master’s programme in maritime law, taught in collaboration with Lund University and the enrolment of the first students on its new PhD programme in Maritime Administration; and

•

for the first time, WMU’s total annual income exceeded US$9 million.

I:\COUNCIL\98\15(a).doc

C 98/15(a) ANNEX Page 2 7 However, despite these record-breaking achievements, WMU cannot rest on its laurels. The University is a part of a wider maritime and academic world that is constantly changing, posing new challenges and opportunities. For WMU to be able to face these challenges and exploit the opportunities, it must be capable of responding quickly and effectively. Facing the Future 8 The comprehensive reviews of WMU carried out in 1999 by the Association of European Universities (CRE) and in 2004 by its successor, the European University Association (EUA), have provided an external validation of the University’s academic programmes and reforms. The University is now moving into a strategic review of its organization, management and governance, which are essential functions that provide structure and support for the academic programmes. 9 In 2006, the Board of Governors approved a proposal by the Chancellor that an independent external review be undertaken to provide an objective assessment of the adequacy of WMU’s governance and managerial capacity to meet the emerging demands placed on the University by the international maritime sector in the next five to ten years. 10 The recommendations and outcomes of the review are intended to enable the University to build a stronger platform for its further development and to allow it to respond effectively to growth opportunities that would also enhance its financial resilience. 11

The main focus of the strategic review will be to consider: •

the organizational, management, staffing and financial resource implications of the increasing demands for student placement, research and possible new initiatives in global outreach;

•

current human resource and management policy and practices, consistent with WMU’s size and institutional characteristics;

•

the effectiveness of its IT and information management systems; and

•

the effectiveness of its governance and oversight arrangements, bearing in mind the need for proportionality, reflecting the University’s institutional character.

12 The review team is made up of eminent international experts: Professor Finn June-Jensen, President of the Copenhagen Business School (Chairperson); Mr. Chris Horrocks, former Secretary-General of the International Chamber of Shipping and the International Shipping Federation and a long-term member of the Board of Governors until his retirement in June 2006; and Professor Shinichi Ueyama, Professor of Public Management at Keio University, Japan. 13 The strategic review will be conducted during 2007 and its findings and recommendations will be presented to the Chancellor and the President, for consideration by the Board of Governors.

C 98/15(a) ANNEX Page 3 Academic Changes and Capacity Building 14 During 2006, WMU has continued to develop and expand its academic portfolio. The MSc curriculum in Maritime Affairs taught in Malmö continues to be assessed and improved by the revision of certain subjects, specializations and electives, alongside the addition of new options. The joint PhD programme in International Maritime and Commercial Law with the University of Wales Swansea in the United Kingdom continued successfully. 15 The success of WMU’s global outreach programmes has continued. The second classes have enrolled on the two new Master of Science programmes taught in China: the MSc in International Transport and Logistics (ITL), delivered in Shanghai and the MSc in Maritime Safety and Environmental Management (MSEM), delivered in Dalian. 16 The programmes continue to be very successful and student satisfaction levels, indicated in their evaluation returns, are high. WMU External Examiner, Professor Robert McCalla (Canada) made his second visit to Shanghai in August 2006 to follow up his earlier assessment of the programme and its conformity to the standards set in Malmö; his report was overwhelmingly positive. 17 WMU’s second External Examiner, Professor Angela Glasner (United Kingdom), assessed the Dalian programme in MSEM in April 2006. Her report was also overwhelmingly positive, noting the quality of the programme and its conformity to the standards set in Malmö. 18 In October 2006, the distance-learning programme, leading to a Postgraduate Diploma in Marine Insurance, enrolled its second intake of 22 students. The programme has been designed and is taught by WMU resident and visiting staff members and is conducted in association with Lloyd’s Maritime Academy, which provides administrative and practical resources. 19 The programme of short-term, non-degree Professional Development Courses (PDCs) has continued to thrive in 2006. PDCs were not only delivered at WMU but also at a number of client locations outside Malmö namely, in Ghana, the Islamic Republic of Iran, Israel, Nigeria, Panama, Sweden, the United Arab Emirates and the United Republic of Tanzania. 20 The University’s academic profile in the field of maritime administration has also been enhanced in 2006 with the first intake of five students for its new PhD programme in Maritime Administration. The course, which offers students the opportunity to focus on the technical, legal or management aspects of maritime administration, is expected to attract further enrolments in 2007. 21 The new maritime law programme at Master’s level was launched in collaboration with Lund University in Sweden in 2006. The programme is aimed at Swedish students and is delivered at Lund University. 22 Planning started in 2006 for the establishment of a new joint doctoral programme with Kobe University in Japan. WMU also provided advice to the authorities in India on the creation of the Indian Maritime University. Research, Consultancy and Publications 23 2006 saw further progress in the University’s work in the area of research, consultancy and publication. The bi-annual “WMU Journal of Maritime Affairs” continues to thrive and is now also available online through Engenta Connect, one of the largest data bases of academic publications worldwide. I:\COUNCIL\98\15(a).doc

C 98/15(a) ANNEX Page 4 24 Several WMU staff also produced publications in 2006; the first, entitled “PSSA in the Baltic Sea: present situation and future possibilities”, was produced by Aldo Chircop, Olof Lindén, Malek Pourzanjani, Jens-Uwe Schröder and Steve Raaymakers and was the result of the Baltic Master project. The second publication in the series, “International Standard Setting through the IMO”, by Jens-Uwe Schröder and Anish Arvind Hebbar, is scheduled for 2007. 25 Members of the Faculty continued to publish widely in learned journals and in conference proceedings. Professor P.K. Mukherjee, Professor Pierre Cariou, Professor Olof Lindén, Professor Takeshi Nakazawa, Associate Professor Jens-Uwe Schröder and Assistant Professor Max Mejia, were particularly prolific during the year under review. Special Events 26 The 24th session of the WMU Board of Governors convened in Malmö on 1 June 2006. More than 30 international Governors considered, amongst other things, the progress made by the University in implementing its Strategic Plan for 2005-2010, and reviewed a range of annual reports, the budgets for 2005, 2006 and 2007 and the recommendations for the 2006 honorary awards. 27 The session of the Board was followed in the evening by a reception and dinner hosted by the City of Malmö, during which the award of Honorary Fellow was made to two retiring Governors: Tom Allan, former Permanent Representative of the United Kingdom to IMO and former Chairman of the IMO Maritime Safety Committee; and Niels Bagge, former Deputy Director of the Danish Maritime Authority. The portraits of WMU’s three Chancellors – Dr. C.P. Srivastava, Mr. William A. O’Neil and Mr. Efthimios E. Mitropoulos – were also unveiled during the reception. 28 The fifth annual international maritime security symposium was held at WMU from 13 to 15 November 2006 on the theme of “Coastal Zone Piracy”. The symposium attracted 35 delegates from around the world, including 12 speakers, many of whom are WMU graduates. It was funded by the Swedish International Development Agency (SIDA) and the German Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Housing. Mr. Johan Franson, Director, Swedish Maritime Safety Directorate and Chairman of the IMO Council, gave the keynote address and other speakers included Mr. Kofi Mbiah, Chief Executive, Ghana Shippers’ Council and Vice-Chairman of IMO’s Legal Committee and senior officials from IMO. 29 The University’s series of Special Lectures continued in the year under review. The third annual Sheldon Kinney Lecture, established by the US Friends of WMU Inc, was presented on 31 May 2006 by Captain Richard Soper of the United States of America. The lecture, on the history of container shipping, was delivered by Mr. Jerry Malia, President of the US Friends of WMU Inc., as Captain Soper’s health prevented him from travelling to Sweden. The 2006 Comité Maritime International (CMI) Lecture on 2 June 2006, was given by Mr. Jean-Serge Rohart, President of the CMI, and was introduced by Professor Edgar Gold, Adjunct Professor of WMU and WMU Governor from 1989 to 2004. 30 Planning also started during 2006 for the special events to mark the University’s 25th anniversary in 2008. Two high-profile international conferences are planned on “Women in Maritime Development” from 2 to 4 April 2008 and on “Climate Change and Maritime Transportation” from 2 to 4 June 2008.

C 98/15(a) ANNEX Page 5 Student Enrolment and Fellowships 31 The number of applications for a place in the MSc programme on the Malmö campus continued to hold steady at around 3:1, thanks to the increased global visibility of the University. A total of 107 new students (102 on the MSc in Maritime Affairs and 5 on the PhD programme) were enrolled, bringing the total full-time student body on the Malmö campus to 198 in 2006. 32 In addition, the University enrolled 85 new students on the MSc programmes in China (43 at Shanghai and 42 at Dalian). The University’s total full-time student body globally, therefore, rose to 368 in 2006, which was the highest annual figure in WMU history. In addition, the University enrolled 41 students on the Postgraduate Diploma programme in Marine Insurance and 706 students on short-term, non-degree Professional Development Courses. Therefore, the University had a total of 1,115 students in 2006, which is another milestone in its history. 33 In 2006, 89 new fellowships for the Malmö MSc programme were given by donors. The University would like to express its deep gratitude to major fellowship donors, such as the Ocean Policy Research Foundation of Japan, the Government of Norway, the IMO Global Programme, the International Transport Workers’ Federation, the Government of the Republic of Korea, the Government of the United Kingdom and the European Union’s SAFEMED project. 34 Over half of its total new full-time students in 2006, including 13% on the Malmö MSc programme as well as all the students on the MSc programmes in China and the distant learning programme, were self-funded, which represented another milestone during the year for the University. Graduations 2006 35 A total of 112 students from 49 different countries received their postgraduate degrees from the Chancellor, Mr. Efthimios Mitropoulos, Secretary-General of IMO in the graduation ceremony on 8 October in Malmö. The Guest of Honour was Ms. Maria Norrfalk, Director General of the Swedish International Development Agency, and the ceremony was attended by some 1,400 guests from around the world, including 14 graduates of the China-based MSc programmes. 36 A high point of the ceremony was the presentation of two honorary doctorates to David Cockcroft, General Secretary of the International Transport Workers’ Federation, and to Andrew Sukawaty, Chairman and CEO of Inmarsat Global Ltd. The awards marked the outstanding global contribution made by both Honorary Doctors of Science and also the particular support by their respective organizations to the growth and development of WMU. 37 As in previous years, special prizes were awarded to members of the graduating class. The Chancellor’s Medal for Academic Excellence was awarded to Mr. Anish Hebbar of the Indian Coast Guard and the C. P. Srivastava Award for International Fellowship was presented to Mr. Kim Ho of the Maritime Administration Bureau of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. Mr. Paul Wright of the Jamaica Defence Force Coast Guard won the Informa Prize for the best dissertation. 38 The newly elected officers of the WMU Student Council also took office at graduation, with Mr. Mokrane Fedila of Algeria assuming the office of President and serving as a member of the Board of Governors. He will work alongside his colleagues, Ramon Sevilla Lopez of the Philippines (Vice-President), and Collins Mbah Acho of Cameroon (Secretary). I:\COUNCIL\98\15(a).doc

2006 saw the first graduation ceremonies from the WMU programmes taught in China.

40 Degrees were conferred by the Chancellor and Secretary-General of IMO on the 39 students in the inaugural class of its MSc programme in Maritime Safety and Environmental Management on 21 April 2006 at the Dalian Maritime University. The graduation ceremony was attended by Mr. Weng Mengyong, Vice-Minister of the Ministry of Communications of China; the Director of IMO’s Maritime Safety Division, Mr. Koji Sekimizu; the Vice-Mayor of Dalian; the Presidents of WMU and DMU. About 300 guests, including the graduates, their family members and friends, the next class of students and representatives from industry and nominating organizations, also attended the ceremony. The Chancellor’s Medal for academic excellence was awarded to Mr. Tang Wei from the China Classification Society. 41 A total of 41 graduates of the inaugural class of the MSc programme in International Transport and Logistics were conferred degrees by the WMU President at the Shanghai Maritime University on 5 August 2006. The graduation ceremony was attended by the President of SMU, Professor Yu Shicheng, Professor Shuo Ma, WMU Vice-President (Academic) and about 150 guests. The Chancellor’s Medal for academic excellence was awarded to Ms. Zhang Shuang and awards for excellent research papers were made to Ms. Li Yizhen and Ms. Wang Biyun. 42 At a special ceremony prior to the graduation, the Chancellor was awarded the degree of Doctor of Science honoris causa by Dalian Maritime University, in recognition of his outstanding contribution to the international maritime community. 43 A total of 14 students from the inaugural distance-learning programme in Marine Insurance received their Postgraduate Diploma in Marine Insurance in 2006. 44 The students graduating in 2006 bring the total of WMU graduates globally to 2,267 from 151 countries, as shown in the graduation statistics in attachment 1 to this annex. Financial Matters 45 Attachments 2, 3, 4 and 5 provide information on the income, sources of income, expenditure and non-budgetary Trust and Special Funds of the University. 46 As shown in attachments 2 and 4, the actual income of WMU in 2006 was US$9,008,000 and the actual expenditure US$8,200,000, compared to US$8,902,000 and US$8,450,000 respectively in 2005. Thus, the income increased by US$106,000 whereas the expenditure decreased by US$250,000. The decrease in expenditure was due to savings in personnel and administrative costs. 47 Overall, the 2006 income and expenditure figures indicate continued steady progress in the financial affairs of the University, highlighted by the fact that WMU recorded, for the first time, an annual income of US$9 million and had the largest-ever balance of its Trust and Special Funds. 48 The contributions from the external donors of the University are listed in attachments 2 and 3 to this annex. The budget contributions towards the operating expenditures of WMU are listed in attachments 2 and 3, table A. The contributions for student fellowships by third-party donors are listed in attachment 3, table B. I:\COUNCIL\98\15(a).doc

C 98/15(a) ANNEX Page 7 49 During 2006, the University also received contributions for designated special purposes, including a contribution of US$60,000 from the Swedish International Development Agency (SIDA) and US$14,000 from the German Ministry of Transport, Building and Housing for the staging of the annual international symposium on maritime security attended by delegates from around the world. 50 Attachment 4 to this annex summarizes the major expenditure categories of the University, while attachment 5 documents the year-to-year changes in the different Trust and Special Funds that are not included in the operating budget. Altogether, these figures provide testimony of the sound financial management and steady progress of the University. 51 The University is immensely grateful to its host country, Sweden and to the City of Malmö, as well as its other donors, without whose invaluable financial assistance WMU could not exist and continue to provide its ever-increasing service to the global maritime community. Staff 52 The University was delighted to welcome Mr. Roger Jones, former IMO Director of Administration, who joined WMU as Vice-President (Business Development) in April 2006, as Head of its new Business Development Programme, with the specific mandate of developing a strategic approach and follow-up to IMO resolution A.933(22) on “Sustainable Financial Support for the World Maritime University”, and undertaking related marketing and fund-raising activities. 53 The University was also delighted to welcome Professor Neil Bellefontaine, who took up the Canadian Chair in Marine Environmental Protection in October 2006. He had previously been a senior executive with the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans. In November 2006, the University was also delighted to welcome Richard Dennis of the United States of America, as Head of Information Services. He brings with him broad experience in library and information systems in both higher education and industry. 54 The University was also pleased to continue to welcome a distinguished roster of Visiting Professors throughout the year. A list of the Visiting Professors is shown in attachment 6. The Visiting Professors, all internationally renowned experts in their fields, provide an essential input to the University’s academic programme. In Memoriam 55 The University was deeply saddened by the unexpected news of the premature death of one of its Governors and, during 2006, by the loss of three of its founding fathers: ¾

Governor Igor Ponomarev of the Russian Federation had made a vivid impression as a member of the Board during his all-too-brief incumbency until his death in October 2006; his youth, energy and enthusiasm will be sorely missed by the Board. Mr. Ponomarev was Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to IMO and Chairman of IMO’s Maritime Safety Committee.

¾

Professor Günther Zade’s profound contribution to WMU will be difficult to match; he played a pivotal role in the development and progress of the University from its opening in July 1983 up until his death in May 2006 and was truly one of its Founding Fathers. For almost twenty years, he served with great distinction as

I:\COUNCIL\98\15(a).doc

C 98/15(a) ANNEX Page 8 WMU Vice-Rector, Academic Dean and Professor of Maritime Education & Training (MET). He was instrumental in the design and development of the academic teaching and research programme of WMU, and, upon his partial retirement in 2001, continued his work by establishing and becoming the editor of the WMU Journal of Maritime Affairs. His reach extended far beyond WMU; he left his indelible mark on maritime education worldwide. As founding member, first chairman, and current President of the International Maritime Lecturers’ Association (IMLA), he was a driving force for the establishment and the raising of global standards of maritime education and training of seafarers. He also played a leading role in many other international and national professional associations, such as the International Association of Institutes of Navigation (IAIN), the International Association of Maritime Universities (IAMU) and the German Institute of Navigation (GDON). He was a prolific researcher and author of many studies on subjects of maritime education and training. His outstanding contribution to WMU and to maritime education worldwide has been recognized and honoured in many ways: the Government of Germany awarded him one of the highest German honours, the Bundesverdienstkreuz 1.Klasse; the Government of France bestowed on him Chevalier de l’Ordre du Mérite Maritime; the Shanghai Municipality gave him the Magnolia Silver Award; and Lloyd’s List presented him with the Award for Lifetime Achievement in Maritime Training while Constanza Maritime University in Romania awarded him an honorary doctorate. WMU awarded him the distinction of Professor Emeritus and established an ongoing student scholarship in his name. To further honour his memory, the University will establish an annual public event, the Günther Zade Lecture, in conjunction with the annual meeting of its international Board of Governors. Distinguished experts from the international maritime education milieu will speak on issues of maritime education and training (MET) to which he had devoted his professional life. ¾ Professor Pierre Houssin, internationally renowned expert on the shipping industry, who joined WMU in 1984, sadly passed away in 2006. He had previously had a distinguished career in the French maritime industry where he was Managing Director and CEO of BP France (Societé BP France) for 15 years. Professor Houssin laid the foundation for the industry-related programmes in Shipping Management and Port Management at WMU. He served the University as Professor for Shipping Management from 1984 to 1994. In 2002, WMU awarded him Professor Emeritus. He was also a member of the French Friends of WMU (Les Amis de l’Université Maritime Mondiale, or AUMM) which has been instrumental in building up French support for WMU. ¾ Captain Sölve Arvedsson, the first Rector of WMU, also passed away during 2006. Captain Arvedsson had had a long and distinguished career in the Swedish maritime field before becoming closely involved in the establishment of WMU in 1983. He believed that hosting WMU would place Malmö more firmly on the international stage and his vision has become a reality: there are now over 2,000 ‘ambassadors’ for the city all over the world.
