Remarks

Because this college is best for marine engineering and it has huge reputation in merchant navy. It is also known as by its name that is DMET(directorate of marine engineering). It was also known as MERI which stands for Marine engineering and research institute. It was inaugurated by late prime minister pandit jawaharlal Nehru in 1948. It is a central government university. Its main centre is IMU CHENNAI .

Course Curriculum Overview

Yeah the course curriculum is better. We have a very large workshop lab. That has a lot of machines it has four marine boilers and it is also one diesel engine. The workshop is very large and it has many instructors to make misunderstand all the concepts and the machines working very easily and efficiently. The profeesor is in the college are mainly from merchant navy background so it's very helpful to get knowledge of the the ship engines machines very easy and you also get to know about how to work on ship and how to live there get to know about what experience we will get there.

Class Size: 40Course Fees: INR 225000 per year

Placement Experience

3.5

The placement here were very high at a time but with time the colleges in marine engineering were also increasing so the placement gets decreased along with time as we have now too many marine engineering private college. The placement is now low as compared to earlier time. But it's overall good everyone gets Jon on or off campus because of college reputation. And because of college alumni connection

College Events

If you will be in top 60 you will get scholarship worth 100000- 50000 per semester.the first ranker usually gets one lakh and the first 29 gets seventy five thousand and the rest 30 gets fifty thousand. If you are good at studies you can get scholarship easily

I always wanted to take up Journalism as a career and the thing which caught my attention in this college is that they have a fully equipted studio room and other colleges may have one but the students even publish there own news report here it prepars us very well for the real world

Likes

Supportive Faculty - The professors are highly qualified, approachable and always willing to help students
Free wifi support - There are free wifi support for both student and faculty
Fee Structure - It is very affordable and low compared to other colleges in the region

Dislikes

Placement support is below average, and most studnets have to apply for off campus jobs independently, which is really pathetic in the era of ai where getting a job as a fresher is so difficult
There is no dedicated support or placment cell initiative to help studnets land meaningful summer internships or any kind of internships

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements starting from the 7th semester. For placement drives, we have to visit the main campus, Techno Main Salt Lake (TMSL). Since students from other Techno India campuses and branches also participate, the competition is extremely high. In the 2025–2026 academic year, fewer companies visited. Only two companies, Dronahost and WishCare, visited our specific campus directly. The remaining drives—mostly service-based companies like TCS and EY, along with a few startups—were conducted at the main campus. The remaining drives mostly service based companies like TCS, EY etc and quite a few startups has visited to main campus. The package they offered mostly in between 3.5lpa - 6 lpa. Furthermore the selection process of those startups is quite rigorous often consisting of upto 5 rounds of interview, two technical rounds with two technical interviews, and HR round My plans after getting the degree is either pursue an MBA or preparing for govt jobs
