The school was founded in 1936 as Taiwan's first educational institution dedicated to fishery and maritime industry, beginning under Japanese rule as the Taiwan Governor-General's Fishery Training Institute. After the war it underwent several name changes and was integrated with National Taiwan Ocean University in 2020, becoming a central part of Taiwan's maritime education system.
The school's name reflects its connection to National Taiwan Ocean University and its focus on maritime careers. The campus displays this ocean-centered identity through ships, equipment, and the daily presence of uniformed students moving between practical training buildings and classrooms.
Visitors should know the school campus is functionally organized with separate areas for different types of training and that access may be limited to certain times. Since the school is in Keelung, a port with regular ship movements, there is an opportunity to observe the city's maritime activity and understand the school's practical connection to the sea.
The school grounds feature the Yuying No. 2, a ship used for practical sailing exercises and popular with students and visitors alike. This vessel embodies the school's maritime identity and enables real-world experience on the water that goes beyond traditional classroom teaching.
