Internationalized Development of Maritime Law Vocational Education Curriculum and the “Going Global” Strategy of Vocational Education

Abstract

Against the backdrop of accelerated integration in the global shipping industry and the growing demand for the internationalization of vocational education, the internationalized development of maritime law vocational education curriculum has become a crucial pathway for cultivating high-quality shipping professionals. Based on the logical framework of “competency-driven—structural coupling—dynamic evolution,” this paper systematically analyzes the theoretical foundations and structural logic of the internationalization of maritime law vocational education curriculum. It further explores implementation pathways for curriculum module reorganization, content optimization, and competency standard alignment under international orientation. The study points out that curriculum internationalization is not only the result of knowledge renewal but also a systematic process of generating job competency and intercultural adaptability. Its core lies in forming a closed-loop mechanism for competency transfer through modular design, contextualized teaching, and data-driven evaluation. In the context of the “going global” strategy of vocational education, the curriculum must possess a high degree of cross-regional adaptability and the portability of knowledge output. By means of standardized competency frameworks, dynamic feedback, and continuous iterative optimization, it can achieve rapid adaptation and long-term competitiveness in international vocational education environments, providing sustainable and high-quality talent support for the global shipping industry.
