Bachelor of Technology [B.Tech] (Marine Engineering) From IMU Chennai, Chennai

Q: What are the future prospects of doing a BTech in marine engineering from Indian Maritime University?

Indian Maritime University offers fewer placement opportunities compared to private universities. It’s because Govt. colleges don’t pay placement fees to companies to hire students. However, If you want to join Govt. Sector, an IMU degree can help. Also, the Govt. has taken shipping as a challenge to boost our economy, so you can expect to get new job opportunities in the field. Career change options are limited for Marine Engineers. As a Marine Engineer, you can’t fit into other professions and the opposite is also true. You need to be a 2nd engineer or a Chief to stop going to sea and start a career on shore. You can get some career options by doing an MBA. Various universities offer PG Diploma in Marine Engineering. Marine Engineering students can appear in GATE as well, but the questions asked in the examination are from Mechanical Engineering.

Welcome To Marine Engineering

Likes

Our college have the Asia's biggest marine workshop with several Marine engines and auxiliaries. And also various labs for gaining practical knowledge. All the facilities are highly professional and most of them are Chief Engineers.
There are different kind of sports in our college basketball, football, cricket, volleyball, badminton, kabaddi, table tennis and also there are gyms for every year hostels and also many types indoor games. So there are many things you can enjoy.

Dislikes

The most common thing a hostel dweller can complain about is the quality of the mess food. They need to look upon it.
Drainage problem during the monsoon of bengal somtimes some places get waterlogged. Although administrative actions are being taken everytime.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I always wanted to be a Marine Engineer and I know this college is the best in the industry. The syllabus relevancy and also talking with the pass-out of this institute made me to take admission here. One has to agree that you need to work on ships not in a AC room so the condition will be totally different so practical knowledge you will gain only working in the ship not in the labs. But you need to gain as much as theoretical knowledge you can gain.

The Galley or the dining hall is quite spacious and the food is also good on an average day.
The gym and sport facilities like table tennis indoor rowing football cricket etc

Certain food items are limited for each student so cannot always eat with the heart content
It is prohibited to bring food items inside the college campus so we can hardly taste anything outside the college kitchen

The college follows Indian Maritime University (IMU) course curriculum. Both theory subjects and practical subjects are included every semester.
