I want to go in Merchant navy engineering field. I have completed my engineering degree in Computer Science. How to get into Merchant Navy.

Hi Gaurav, scope of merchant navy in India is very promising one. The number of ship and cruise are increasing, also private giants are investing crores in ports,and sea trade. There is a boom in this sector with handsome salary package. You can enter it right after your 12 (PCM) after completing 1 years pre-sea training as a deck cadet. After completing B.Sc.(Nautical Science) in the officer cadre which will lead you to become captain after 5-7 years of experiance. You can also join it directly after b.tech in marine engineering,or mechanical, electrical, electronics & telecommunication, naval architect. Except marine engineering candidates others have to undergo a 10 months pre-sea training which is offered by many institute and port trusts or recruitingcompany itself. After that you will be appointed as a 5th or junior engineer. It will take you 5-7 years depending in your own abilities for becoming 'chief engineer'. I am sending you institute and article links, please go through it for detailed understanding of the stream. tinyurl.com/6v6ksru tinyurl.com/yase4y7 tinyurl.com/bnr58wm tinyurl.com/yl8jhky Hope this will help you in the best way.
