本研究以內容分析法進行海事教育學位論文之統整與分析，研究樣本為1981 年至2014年間發表之197篇海事教育博碩士論文。研究結果顯示：一、我國自1981 年始有以海事教育為議題之論文，發表篇數於2001年起呈現逐年成長趨勢，但於 2014 年明顯衰退。二、海事教育議題之學術研究，以國立臺灣海洋大學論文產 量最高。三、研究主題以探討船員所占比率最高，其次為中等海事教育範疇。四、 研究方法以調查研究法運用最廣，其次為內容分析法，較少應用實驗法。本研究 結果可提供未來教育決策與研究人員作為海事教育研究指標應用參考。

Third, the numbers of master and doctoral theses were mainly focus on “seafarer” and “secondary maritime education”. Forth, the most common methodology was questionnaire survey research, content analysis, and case studies. The results of this study could be a reference for the future research trend and policy making of maritime education.
