I finish 12th, I got 50% in all subject physics, chemistry and math and I finished diploma mechanical engineering. Now I want to study marine engineering. Am I eligible?

Yes, you are eligible to study Marine Engineering course after completion of your Diploma in Mechanical Engineering course from a recognised institution. Candidates who have passed 12th standard or an equivalent examination with PCB stream or three years Diploma in Mechanical/ Marine Engineering course from a recognised institution are eligible to pursue Marine Engineering course. So, being a Diploma holder in Mechanical Engineering, you are eligible to pursue Marine Engineering course.

I am glad to inform you that your are very much eligible to apply for Marine Engineering course after completing diploma in Mechanical Engineering.
A candidate who have completed 10+2 with science (PCM) stream or three year Diploma course in Mechanical or Marine Engineering course from a recognized board/university, is eligible to apply for B.Tech in Marine Engineering course.
After completing diploma in Mechanical engineering, you need to appear in LEET (Lateral Entry Entrance Test) examination or any other entrance examination conducted by your respective state and by qualifying the examination, you can get direct admission in second year of four years B.Tech/B.E Marine Engineering course.

Yes, after completing diploma in mechanical engineering with 50% marks you are eligible to pursue graduation in marine engineering. If you belong to SC/ST category then the marks will be relaxed by 5% which is 45%.
