Remarks

Comparitively good when compared to other existing maritime institutions and College, since we have the best masters to guide us through our course for three years. The negative aspect is that the seniors treat us like juniors onboard a ship it would be literally like army camps where you obey orders from seniors.

Course Curriculum Overview

100% job oriented professional curriculum. Main subjects would be navigation ship operation safety and stability. Its chill for those who love it. There is parade and PT every morning. Very strict rules and regulations are implemented by our seniors.

Placement Experience

3.5

Well now that the shipping industry is in a bad shape we get only 50% to 60% placements. Companies like maersk, torm, goodwood,shell, chevron and many more have recruited us. We get placement opportunities even after graduation.

College Events

2.5

There are various events celebrated in our College like College culturals and festivals like deepavali pongal and holi. Events like navinautics are specialised events only for nautical cadets, cadets from various renown institutions are invited to this event.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Since it is a private institution fee structure is expensive compared to INDIAN MARITIME UNIVERSITY. Our annul fee is around 3.75 lakh and for three years around 11 lakh and the same course in IMU is around 6 lakh for 3 year literally only 50% of our institution fee.

Fees and Financial Aid

Fishermen get scholarship from government and other students can apply for a bank loan. Fisher men get 25000 when studying and after graduation we get 25000 from the government. Scholarship to be applied personally in local fisheries office.

Campus Life

We have all kind of sports activities and swimming is mandatory among all we also have tests on our swimming abilities. Labs we seamanship lab and physics lab which is in our curriculum. Our College do have other labs which are not related to our course.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

This is a residential course hostel is compulsory. Because we have pt and parade all admitted students get an in campus or off campus hostel. Usually 4 cadets share a room and hostel facilities are quite good except a few rooms which r very uncomfortable.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

I have no idea because i have not yet registered as an alumni. But our College has as alumbi association and they do host events and parties. After graduation we get formally invited to attend an alumni meeting.

Admission

My love towards sea made me choose this career, and AMET is one of the leading maritime College. You need min 60% in english maths and science to be eligible to apply and medicals. There is an entrance exam and a personal interview in the process of admission.

Faculty

We were trained by masters. And asias youngest captain capt. Yeswanth raj is our faculty member. Our masters treat and train us like cadets to get the best out of us. The masters who train us have a vast sea going experience and expertise,undeniably they are the best.

Nit Trichy B.Sc. B.ed. student review

Likes

girls to boys ratio is 1:1 is we consider all three branches with some courses with more male while other having for female.more or less the ratio is near 1:1
the most important thing for you is there is close to zero discrimination for you , whether you want to join any club or perform anything you are equivalent to students with others bachelor degree
octagon and library are the two things which are good as library is considered the biggest library among all nit's while octagon having 800 computers for students.NSO ground is also well maintained with the beautiful mig fighter jet to take cool phot

Dislikes

for first years hostel are well maintained if compared with others but don't expect much from hostel atlast this is a government college.in first year 3 to 4 person sharing room are there which was build to carry 2 person.
Quant and entrepreneur thing is not there as you might expect by seeing the nirf 9 ranking but it is not zero .they are growing clubs like profNITT and Sigma are young and they could do better
curfew timing for girls are 9 or 9:30 pm i guess be it any year. for boys ,only freshers have curfew with timing 9:30 pm.other than that any student can't step outside the college after 10 pm without the sign out form.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose this course as maths is the mother of all science and quite related to other fields so it opens a lot of door for me like mba ,mtech ,phd or any other things. this course is specifically designed for becoming teachers so keep that in mind before taking this course as they are not flexible in changing curriculum or adding something for the sake of students as of now. also you will be having more working days compared to other courses with 80 percent mandatory attendance.after first sem you will get 1 week holiday and after 2nd sem you will get 50.days holiday and after first year you can expect 20 days holiday for winters and 50 days holiday for summers. you will get a lot of time to study for exams. before ct 1 you can expect 2 months and then atleast a month for ct 2 and endsems. cons are that you don't have the right to choose minor or electives like btech students.you have to compulsory study all three science .i.e. maths , physics, chemistry.

HIMT COLLEGE REVIEW

Likes

The faculties are very well experienced and there are captains who stay in the campus itself, so if there’s something we need they will be available all the time
The facilitieslike labs, ship in campus, DB tank facilities etc are top notch
The classrooms are fully air conditioned. There’s smart board. Overall everything is really good and also neat and clean

Dislikes

Galley food can improve a little and canteen is comparatively small for such a big campus
They are not conducting intra- college events and inter-college events is very less

Placement Experience:

Placements are really good in HIMT. I got placed in 1st year itself in MOLMI. All faculties try their best to prepare us for the placements and it shows in the placement interview also. Usually companies come for placements from 2nd year but there are some companies who want to take girl cadets 1st year itself. MOLMI, MOLTA etc came to our college for placements. After completion of the course, company will call for induction and accordingly they will call for joining the ship. For finishing the cadet ship , we have finish 12 months of sea time. After that a lot courses has to be done for appearing in 2 nd mates exam.

Nice environment, Student support system, living in a whole different world.

I applied to a few colleges like Anna University and SRM but got confirmed admission only at AMET University. I chose AMET because of its strong focus on maritime studies and practical training, which other colleges lacked. I faced rejection elsewhere mainly due to lower entrance exam scores. AMET’s admission process requires passing 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, and Maths, and accepts scores from TNEA and other engineering entrance exams, with TNEA being the most preferred. Cutoffs vary yearly but are reasonable. Overall, the admission process was smooth and transparent, making it a good experience for me....Read More

A Perfect College Life For A Cadet To Become An Officer.

I applied in the top 4 colleges in this field i.e., Tolani Maritime Institute, IMI Noida, SIMS Mumbai And AMET with MAERSK sponsorship at Chennai. I chose this college because i got MAERSK sponsorship and also the fees comparavtively to other colleges is less. Taking about the admission procedure, we need to clear IMUCET and the AMET CET exam and alsowe need to clear the interview with MAERSK (if passes AMET CET exam). Then the comapny conducts the psychological test in which we need to pass. Then we need to complete our medicals from DGS approved doctor and the comapny approved doctor to get into the college. Passport is mandatory while admission. Around 15000 students gets selected in IMUCET exam every year. The cutoffs may vary depending on the competition and students applying for the exams....Read More

Place for mariners

The hostel rooms you get are way too small for even two of them to live comfortably. But they stuff in 3 students per room, Upon that they conjust your room with study tables, chairs, buckets(which do not fit under the bed) table mates, and they provided so. only to look good during inspections done by AICTE or DG shipping. Once upon a time Amet gave 100% placement to the students, however now the students getting placed from GME is very little. It is nothing wrong about the institute rather the entire field is not in a good position....Read More
