Since you have completed a 3-year diploma in Mechanical Engineering, you can pursue B.Tech in Marine Engineering through lateral entry (direct second-year admission) in many institutes offering marine courses. Completing a Diploma in Marine Engineering (DME) from an DG-approved institute is a direct route. After DME or B.Tech, you must clear the Indian Maritime University or Directorate General of Shipping exams to join the Merchant Navy as an officer. Focus on medical fitness, swimming skills, and aptitude tests for eligibility.
