brief description of the course in Estonian
Arvutisüsteemide keskne roll ühiskondades. Digitaalse revolutsiooni mõju kõikidele ühiskonna valdkondadele, sh merendusvaldkonnale. Arvutisüsteemidest teadlikkuse tähtsus merendusspetsialistide jaoks nii oma ametialase tegevuse kontekstis kui ka digitaalsete ja arvutisüsteemide muudetud ühiskonna kodanikena. Digitaalse transformatsiooni poolt avanevate uute erialaste tegevuste mõistmine.
brief description of the course in English
A central role of computer systems in societies. The impact of the digital revolution on all sectors of society, including the maritime sector. Awareness of computer systems for maritime professionals, both in the context of their professional activities and as citizens of a society changed by digital and computer systems. Understanding the new professional activities opened up by the digital transformation.
