The historical development of Shipbuilding Institute of Polytechnic Surabaya or SHIPS (in Indonesian : Politeknik Perkapalan Negeri Surabaya (PPNS)) can be traced back to 1987 when it was originally established as the Polytechnic under initiation of Sepuluh Nopember Institute of Technology (ITS) for the purpose of establishing polytechnic in Surabaya. The institute was later elevated as an independent institute in 2012.

SHIPS as a state polytechnic has since expanded rapidly in terms of both facilities and academic services and has become one of the most comprehensive polytechnics, offering courses and also training in the field of shipbuilding and marine-related industries.

SHIPS has applied concepts in the effort to prepare 6 (six) standards of national competency for the students. A hallmark concept of “Link and Match” is a concept that facilitates effective learning implementation by creating curriculum which is connected and matched to the industrial needs. Another education pattern is “Teaching Factory”. It is a concept which adopts a practice and application-oriented training approach that combines the learning and working environment from which realistic and relevant learning experiences.

The polytechnic has long been maintaining its reputation for proactive relationships with industry and the public services. SHIPS offers great and challenging career prospects to its graduates. Many of SHIPS graduates are now occupying top positions in business, as well as public organizations.
