Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

There are 8 semesters in total, 7-8 papers in the first two years, 6 papers in the last two years. The course is very lengthy but interesting one. We have many practical sessions which makes the course interesting.

Placement Experience

It is the most professional industry and hence always has demand in the industrial levels. They train us well for this interview process. Some of the companies that recruit from here are SCI, Thome and Synergy, the salary package is also quite impressive.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee is feasible by most of them, it is Rs 2.5 Lakhs per annum, which is about Rs. 9 Lakhs for the whole course of four years. This is inclusive of all the hostel and food fees. Scholarships and student loans are all available.

Fees and Financial Aid

Scholarships opportunities are very well available at this college. There is a 50% scholarship to the female cadets joining, 1.5 lakhs of scholarship to a student who scores first and 50 thousand to the students who come second and third.

Campus Life

4.5

Extracurricular activities are given as much as importance as the academics at MERI. Events like sports fest, annual event Prajaan with dance and music and DJ war. Essay writing and debates are also part of this.

Alumni/Alumna

The alumni network is quite strong there are a lot of passed out seniors who are in good positions in some great companies, they can refer you and also some of them help us academically. This is one of the oldest institutes in marine engineering hence the network is wide.

Admission

IMU-CET is a exam exclusively arranged for this college. After scoring in this exams you are called for an counselling in which you have to select among the 7 colleges all over India. Many private colleges also accept this score for marine engineering.

Faculty

The faculties that we have here are mostly visiting faculties. There are very confident and full of experience with this field. There are some permanent faculties who are as equally talented too. They teach us efficiently all the concepts of this complex course in an easy manner.

Honestly the placement is good in college but student's are not able to get that placement because they don't work on their skills . Then how could college place them although College does their best in placement. Almost 80% students get placement in our college .the highest package last year was 12.5 lakhs per annum.

The Real Experience: Strengths and Shortcomings of PCCOE

Placement Experience:

The college has a dedicated Training and Placement(T&P) cell and has regular recruitment drives that work to place students in companies where they will be values highly. Each year, 600-700 students are placed from all the branches. More than 300+ companies visit but the ones that hire are limited such as TCS, Capgemini, Infosys, Tech Mahindra which generally are mass recruiters that look for employees that will work for 3LPA or 4.5LPA. The highest packages go to about 30 to 40 LPA domestic and 61 LPA foreign but it is very rare to get a placement like this and requries considerable effort on the side of the student as well. Average package is 7 LPA for CS/IT branch; 5 LPA for electronics and telecommunications branch; 4 LPA for mechanical. My plan after getting the degree is working for 1-2 years while simultaneously pursuing masters.

College life of a Mariner

I have completed my diploma and Then I applied for these college and got selected. Yes, I have not applied for any other colleges. This college was my first preference and got addmission here. For the addmission process first you have to give IMU CET entrance exam and score good ranking in it. After the result is declared you have to pay 10000 for the college selection process. After that some days later a list will be declared with the cadets selected for the college on the website. If you have the name you are the lucky guy. You will get a call from the college to bring the required documents plus check for the college fee. Yes your first exam fee will be only accepted through check. You have to pay 25000 extra as a caution deposit which you will get back once you have graduated from the college....Read More

Bad aspects are you should be strong enough to handle the senior's warden and the strict rules and regulations of the college.
