To be eligible for this department, you must be a graduate in commerce or related field with a fair knowledge of accountancy and computer.

You cannot join the engineering or navigation department in Merchant Navy since your have a commerce background. To join Merchant Navy, one should do 10+2 or an equivalent examination with physics, chemistry and mathematics. However you have an option to join as Pursuer. A pursuer is responsible for handling the general administration including the money on board.

This has quite bright carrier as they give handsome salary.
For that you do not require any specific stream, buty when when you belong to maths it resulkts into benefit for you.
But don't worry that not a big problem.

There are many private institutes that too provide merchant navy traininga nd you can either appear for UPSC exam.

obviously commerce student may join in indian navy. but for this you should qualify graduation. after completion of graduation try to join in indian navy. best wishes.

dear friend

According to my knowledge, you cannot join merchant navy because there is no way out to join this course without having PCM subjects in your 12th.

But according to your qualification, you are not eligible to join merchant navy. Because your background is commerce.

And to join merchant navy, PCM subject is compulsory. So, dont worry, just do any other courses, which was related to your field.

dear,
yes commerce students also join merchant navy you can take test of UPSc and clear the test and take job oin merchant navy.

Can a Commerce Student Join MErchant Navy

Yes.....!

But in Rating Department.

In Catering Rating: One will be responsible to look after the whole catering and foods etc.
In Purser Job:One is an officer who looks after all the administrative work related to pay and perks of personnel onboard. However, this category of personnel has also been almost phased out and their duties passed over to other deck officers.


Any background will do. However, background in hotel management/Hospitality/Cabin Crew etc. with experience in the hospitality business will be a great help.


In this field you need to upgrade your skills every nine months or so, through proficiency development or skill development courses in the maritime academies and pass examinations conducted by the Directorate General of Shipping (DGS). This will be your key to new contracts.

Age Limit: 25 years for MBA/CA or master degree holders, while 22-23 for Bachelor holder .

Since ur stream is commerce u r not eligible to join merchant navy. Hard luck

Hi,
In my knowledge you won't be able to join merchant navy as a deck cadet. You can try joining it as an offshore cadet in the management department. But that is not anybody want to. So the summary is that you can't join it.
Although there are other better options for you. Sorry for the negative reply!!

obviously, commerce guys can also join merchant navy as GPR ( Genral Purpose Rating) for which the minimum qualification is 10 pass with around 50% marks in english,maths and science

minimum qualification is 10 pass with around 50% marks in english,maths and science but only as crew rating
