They explore why maritime safety has historically lacked academic focus, how CSU\u2019s curriculum bridges that gap, and what students can expect to learn about global regulations, port operations, and systemic risk management. The conversation also highlights how this program helps shape the next generation of safety leaders both on land and at sea.
