Entrance Preview

RLAT, I wanted to do marine engineering that's why i choose this collage . After getting permission from my family i had gone through the exam and got selected.

Course Curriculum Overview

We have 8 Written and 4 practical papers in every semester there was total 8 semester in which 1 semester is for internship which you can do outside or in ship in campus every semester we have to go for but test then mid semester and final exam in every semester many guy got back in subject.

Internships Opportunities

Yes we got ship in campus but that does not give any stipend those student who got selected out side in any company the got stipend from the company.

Placement Experience

3.5

Many company use to visit collage at the time of passing out most of company are foreign companies . They used to conduct written exam and on base of score the call for interview after the selection they give the call letter . Many time company directly call student based upon there cgpa.

College Events

4.5

We does not have to many functions in our collage but ya we have one big function apart from independence day ,Republic day and gandhi jayanti it was maritime weak. Which was for 7 days its a technical fest and ends with a cultural function its an intra collage fest.

Fee Structure And Facilities

My fee structure was very expensive for middle class family it was around 11 lakhs for full course and it is more because the course was full residential. So we have to stay in collage hostel for more then 10 month the above amount was divided in semester.

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes, our collage have sign the bond with UCO bank for loan and scholarship is also there from fleet management company.

Admission

First you have to appear for written exam which have basic question of PCM group english psychological questions after if you able to clear then have to under go a medical exam from any DGS certified doctor after the medical you will call for a interview in collage after that you are eligible for admission.

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.

I have opted this course as I wanted an uniform job and an adventurous one. Indian Maritime University and it’s affiliated colleges were approved by Director General Of Shipping.These affiliated colleges were providing Continuous Discharge Certificate and the fees for this course was comparatively lesser in this college than other affiliated colleges. The most important thing that drove me to this college was the atmosphere and the accommodation was for single cadet per room and not only that our college had a ship TS Meenakshi in which we used to do our Internship....Read More
