Sailing Through Maritime History: The “Sea Voyage” Course Experience
This week, we set sail as part of the “Sea Voyage” course in our Maritime Strategy program, focusing on connecting historical heritage with contemporary maritime policy.
The course, co-led by Dr. Igal Berenshtein, PhD Berenshtein and Dr. Yoav Lehahn, is built around a brilliant concept: learning about strategic, environmental, and historical topics of the Eastern Mediterranean in situ—while sailing, observing coastal sites from short distances, and engaging in meaningful conversations in an intimate setting. Aboard the yacht, with our small group and the gentle Mediterranean breeze, we created the perfect atmosphere for exchanging knowledge and insights about the sea and its significance.
A Moving Gathering of the School of Marine Sciences Community!
This week we held a special event that brought together our entire community – researchers, students and interested visitors gathered for an experiential and connecting meeting.
It was moving to see the fruitful connections formed between all members of our school community, who share a common vision for creating change through the sea.
Dr. Oren Gal’s Lab Partners with Rafael in EU Maritime Security Project
Dr. Oren Gal’s Swarms and AI Lab (SAIL) at the Hatter Department of Marine Technology is collaborating with Rafael Advanced Defense Systems on the European Union’s #UnderSec project.
