The study aimed to look into the problems encountered and the performance of the maritime
institutions in Region 8, namely: Eastern Visayas State University (EVSU), Naval State
University (NSU), and Palompon Institute of Technology (PIT). The respondents were
the college deans, faculty, and students of the maritime education program. Data were
gathered through the questionnaire-checklist, interview, and college records were analyzed
and interpreted. In terms of enrollment and graduates over the last five school years (from SY
2007 − 2008 to 2011 − 2012), NSU obtained the highest total enrollment of 6, 243 but turned
out 867 graduates only, while PIT got a total enrollment of 4, 179 but was able to produce
974 graduates. PIT is doing better in its shipboard training program. The requirements on
the administrators’ and faculty members’ profile, educational qualification, experience, and
relevant trainings were complied, except for research which needs to be institutionalized in the
College of Maritime Education. As to the problems met, the area on laboratory revealed that
it was more felt in EVSU, but was never felt in PIT, indicating the latter to have adequate
laboratory facilities. PIT was able to set a high record of shipboard training considering
its small enrollment. PIT’s maritime upgrading program in partnership with the KVNR or
the Shipowners Association of the Netherlands was also seen to be an important factor.
Improvement and enhancement activities of schools offering maritime education in Region 8
are imperative.
