Pre - Baccalaureate Maritime (PBM)

Pre-baccalaureate Maritime Specialization is a modified program of a Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) strand under the Academic Track.

In this specialization, six specialized subjects of the STEM strand were retained and three were replaced with maritime-related subjects. The goal of the Pre-baccalaureate Maritime Specialization is to encourage SHS graduates to pursue maritime higher education. With this, the country will be able to produce more seafarers at the officer level.

This strand focuses on the basic, common, and core competencies that the Senior High School (SHS) student ought to possess, and is designed to enhance the knowledge, skills, positive attitude, and work values in accordance with workplace standards.
