Åbo Swedish Maritime School
Explanation:
This is what the school seems to use itself. "Turku Swedish Maritime School" would probably be a good alternative ("Åbo" is Swedish for "Turku").

Now the brand name seems to be "Sydväst Maritime", and the official names of the two schools involved "Sydväst Vocational Institute" and "Sydväst University of Applied Sciences". These names are about to change; please see the web references.
