Overview
Gujarat Maritime University (GMU) is a state private university in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India. It functions under the Gujarat Maritime Board and focuses on education and research connected with the maritime sector.
The university operates from a transitory campus located at Gujarat National Law University (GNLU) in Gandhinagar. Its establishment reflects Gujarat's engagement with the maritime sector, given the state's extensive coastline and associated port and shipping activity.
As a specialised institution, GMU is intended to serve as a centre for maritime studies, contributing to the development of academic and professional resources linked to the field. Its affiliation with the Gujarat Maritime Board situates it within the broader institutional framework that oversees maritime affairs in the state.
