The module takes maritime transport as a model case of transport safety regulation and aims to provide the basic concepts of safety regulations and certification in maritime transport in order to provide safety operators with the necessary concepts to understand, implement and manage security systems / models in accordance with this legal framework. In this perspective, the teaching analyzes: - the sources of the applicable legislation on maritime transport (international law, of the European Union, national) - the content of the main international, EU and national regulations concerning the implementation of safety, certification and control in the maritime transport sector. - the regulation of the controls carried out in terms of maritime safety by the flag and port authorities; - the role of regognised organisms (classification societis) - the rules on maritime accident investigations - the regulation of liability related to maritime accidents Individual study, attendance and participation in the proposed educational activities will enable the student to: Identify the law sources applicable to cases and understand and apply the rules contained in them according to the methods of each area; Understand and remember the main regulatory provisions that govern safety at sea; Understand the structure and functioning mechanism of the main maritime safety instruments; Read and critically examine legislation of international origin, of the European Union or national Express yourself in appropriate legal technical language. Illustrate and explain clearly what you have learned.
