Disciplinary measures

Prior to the voyage, the project team, in close coordination with the ship’s crew, establishes clear rules for behavior on board and for dealing with each other, and communicates them to the students. These general rules for living together are for the most part signed together with the contract before the trip. The students elect a representative who has a valid vote in the ship’s council (consisting of the captain, the project leader and one representative each from the crew and the teachers) and can also represent the students’ wishes regarding the rules on board. In addition to the class book and log book, there is a log book in which entries are made for gross misconduct, among other things. If three entries are made, a participant will be excluded from the trip. Ocean College will not cover the cost of any transportation home in the event of exclusion from the trip.
