Prospects of Navigation Technology Specialty In modern and modern history, China's navigation technology lags behind that of western developed countries. Since the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening up, the maritime industry has made great progress. But in the aspect of navigation science and technology, it is mainly to learn, draw lessons from, introduce, digest and absorb the navigation science and technology achievements of western developed countries for our use. However, since the implementation of the reform and opening-up policy in China, the maritime industry has developed rapidly and made exciting and world-renowned development achievements in all aspects. Maritime talents have a bright future, and the current shortage of maritime talents is the current situation of maritime talents in China.
At present, there are about 1.8 million students in various maritime colleges and universities in China every year, including about 7,000 students majoring in navigation. However, for various reasons, there are less than 6,000 maritime graduates who actually work on ships every year. In 2009, the supply-demand ratio of maritime graduates in the market was 1:6.
