About Us
IPMT-HIMAT (Institute of Professional Maritime Technologies – Higher Institute of Maritime and Technological Applications) is a private university institute that began its journey in 2013. Initially founded as a vocational training center under the name IPMT, the institute aimed to bridge the gap between academic learning and practical skill development in the maritime and technical sectors.
