RESULTS OBTAINED. The Covenants are working there is still very little time to have a real dimension on the positive aspects that they will have on the companies involved, but we can already see clearly in our student body, the breadth of the horizon of knowledge that this closer contact has brought. The Covenants are working there is still very little time to have a real dimension on the positive aspects that they will have on the companies involved, but we can already see clearly in our student body, the breadth of the horizon of knowledge that this closer contact has brought. These results become more evident in the themes and results presented in the work of end of course that students of Naval Engineering, Federal University of Pernambuco, has to develop and introduce, as part of the criteria for obtaining the degree of Bachelor of engineering. A Naval Engineering course with more than 60 years of existence as the course even of UFRJ, with the proximity to several shipyards, classifier society’s offices and shipping companies, of 51 switch works presented in the first half of 2015, the proportion of work is as follows: • Ship Design And Hydrodynamics – 58% • Offshore Design – 24% • Shipbuilding – 9,8% • Others – 8,2% In our course, the 10 works proposed for until the second half of 2015 the proportion is as follows: • Ship Design And Hydrodynamics – 40% • Offshore Design – 10% • Shipbuilding – 30% • Others – 20 % Obviously, this is a reflection of the encouragement given in the course of a larger vision of the problems of the local shipyards, but is also greater cooperation by industry in support of work involving the shipbuilding issues. An example is the first of these works, which was the result of a need for the shipyard to treat data VARD manufacture in order to deploy Lean Production and Lean Thinking methodology applied to the design of the Bow of ship blocks of a PSV. This work was developed and implemented in the shipyard VARD for one of the students under the supervision of a professor and a shipyard engineer, this being the first work of end of course the recent undergraduate course in Naval Engineering, Federal University of Pernambuco. Other actions are underway, as a research project, still in the planning phase, for monitoring and further analysis of the production line of the shipyard plans, panels in partnership between the EAS and Naval Engineering, Federal University of Pernambuco.
