We research: Mental Well-being as a Source of Resilience
The SataMieLo project has guided employees to better understand the connections between resilience and mental well-being.
We research
We reseach: The cooperation of Sustainable Flow reduces carbon dioxide emissions
The Sustainable Flow (Sustainable flow of goods and decreased CO2 emissions of transportation) project reduces CO2 emissions in and around ports, focusing on activities in the Interreg Central Baltic region.
We research: How intelligent can maritime logistics be?
When talking about intelligent maritime logistics a broader perspective is needed. Functionality of maritime logistics does not start at the port: the process goes all the way back to the very roots of the supply chain.
We research: security of supply and green transition are high on the agenda of the Marine Logistics Research Center
Ambitious green shift targets for maritime logistics pose questions and challenges for actors in the maritime cluster.
We research: International cooperation in training and research in maritime logistics
For the first time, SAMK will organise the IAMU annual meeting and conference Annual General Assembly AGA in October 2023.
We research: Fostering students’ transversal skills in education
Transversal skills help learners adapt to changes and find meanings in their actions. The SocialBlend project focuses on developing these competences in learning. It is ERASMUS+ project conducted by partners from Finland, Belgium, Romania, Slovakia, Poland and Hungary. The aim is to create a digital library for research framework, learning toolboxes, gamification best practices and teacher communication platform within the topic of transversal skills education.
We research: Improving the energy efficiency of small ports
In the Central Baltic region, boating tourism is a popular way to spend holidays and leisure time. The coasts of Finland and Sweden, with their tens of thousands of islands, are a world-famous boating tourism area. At the heart of leisure cruising are destinations, i.e. small ports with their services and surroundings. With the growing pace of climate change, small ports are also under pressure to develop their operations in an increasingly environmentally friendly direction. Uncontrolled climate change may have unpredictable consequences for the future of the boating.
We research: Digitalization as an asset for the logistics chains in the Satakunta region
In our society, almost every activity needs logistics. But logistics often goes unnoticed, especially when it is working well. Logistics is a daily, round-the-clock operation that is carefully planned, follows minute-by-minute schedules, and has an overall impact on the security of supply. Digitalization has brought the logistics industry opportunities to operate in an easier, more efficient, and more meaningful way.
We research: Online studies for marine engineers
Simulators form an increasing part of maritime studies. Theoretical studies are put into practice in simulators, where 30 days of supervised training can be carried out on both deck and engine sides. The Maritime Logistics Research Center is cooperating at European level in the training of engineers, which can be partly carried out in an online environment.
We research: Exports to Southern Africa
There is a growing demand for the products and services of the maritime cluster in the markets of Southern Africa. In the future, Southern Africa will be the target of increasing investments. The market consists of an area of up to 300 million consumers. Located on the southern coast of the Atlantic, Namibia is categorized as a gateway to Southern Africa by sea and road.
