Just after completion of your Mechanical Engineering program, you won't be eligible to join Merchant Ships. In order to join any Merchant Ship as an Junior Engineer, you will have to undergo a 1 years pre-sea course offered by various institutes including Marine Engineering and Research Institute, Navi Mumbai.
The Pre-Sea training is mandatory to be eligible for the post of Junior Engineer on any Merchant Ships.
The fee for the Pre-sea training is Rs.140000.

As far as payment during training period is concerned, you will be entitled to a salary only after you join any shipping company and start your training program on board.

How do i know that a particular institute is authentic & not fake (any registration or affiliation no.as such that should be seen).How much is the demand for merchant navy technician (I have cleared my BE in electronics & telecommunication Engineering) & is job guaranteed? Do engineers really get salary in lakhs per month? Should I pay placement charges as demanded by the institute in lakhs?Does the job require one to stay 6 months on duty & rest 6 months in home?

after completion of BE mechanical,, how to join merchant navy ???

i have completed bachelors in mechanical engineering, can i join merchant navy course after 1year?
