Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Merchant Navy is my dream job, as we travell all around the globe it's not a 9-5 job, we face different types of conflicts off shore, earn in dollars. I choose B.Sc (NS) because I wanted to be perfect in my career as this course is of 3 years. There is another way of becoming a Deck Cadet n it is DNS it's a 16 months course. Speaking of this career, Good things, This field teaches you the proper definition of discipline, how to love yourself as you work all alone, you face a lot of challenges also you earn in dollars, work with foreign officers onboard, Time management, Proper care if you are a Girl, etc. Bad things, You stay away from your family for an entire year/6 months, suffer a lot of mental breakdown, low network, you'll be paid only when you're onboard, etc. The teaching methods are very good as the faculties themselves are an officers so what ever they teach it directly comes from their experiences. Exams are in the mid of difficult and easy but hectic schedule.

Placement Experience

4.5

Top companies like Mersk, V-ships, Wallem, Thome, MSC, MSI, etc. are collaborated with AMET University. Our University has the best placement record of 80% each year. If you study hard and get above 9 CGPA there is a 90% of chance of your placement from Cllg itself. In any case if you don't get placed you can fill the forms and get placed. The pakage starts from 3LPA to 7LPA depending upon the company and type of ship alloted to you. As I'm placed so after getting the degree I'll join my company after our waiting period n start earning.

We have an event named as Navinautics held in the month of end Feb for 3 days. There are 2 libraries in our campus. Books are available inside the campus itself but they are a little costly. We have a lot of curricular activities and clubs like Spots :- outdoor - volleyball, football, badminton basketball Indoor - chess, table tennis and Gym. Clubs like:- cultural club, Toast Masters, Leo club, tutors club, etc. we also have National Cadet Corps (NCC). As I mentioned earlier we have a hectic schedule throughout the day. So there is no extra me time:)

Admission

Firstly for Merchant Navy you have to give the entrance exam known as IMU CET and the eligibility for my Cllg is that you should get a rank in the list. I found AMET University myself with the help of Google. Eligibility for my Cllg :- Minimum 60% in English in std 10th & 12th. PCM above 70% Health checkup from DGS Approved hospitals. For the application form you can visit their online site and fill the form accordingly our Cllg has a lot types of course such as BE (Marine Engineering), Diploma in Nautical Science, B.Sc (Nautical Science), ADNS, etc. The fees for the reservation is 25000/- also they don't include fees for books in your yearly fees so that costs you aprox 16000/-. Every course has different times and dates for the admission according to the duration of the course. For B.Sc (NS) and BE(ME) the admission process starts from the month of mid April. In B.Sc (NS) we have 2 semesters per year and the duration of the course is of 3 yrs so in total there will be 6 semisters.

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.
