What is the difference between bsc nautical sciences and Btech marine engineering?And what are the advantages of the one against the other?

according to me here is a breifing that i am providing you which will certainly help you in understanding what is the major difference between the two but i completely leave the decision to go with which course upon you .. and i think after reading what i think about the courses which you have asked for may give you some aspects to think upon before you join any of them.. hope you get them..

Marine engineering::::

it is a specialized field of study which deals with the engineering aspects of marine related equipment found on board ships, boats and so forth. Infact it is a very vast subject and there are several related fields of study such as naval architecture which may not directly fall under the purview of marine engineering but act as sister arenas. If you want to have a broad idea about the types of machineries found on board commercial vessels.

Bsc. Nautical Science::::

this course will lead the candidates to become the Captain of the ship. Captain of the ship is also referred as Master mariner. On successful completion of this pre-sea training, the candidates are eligible to become nautical Deck Cadets on board a ship. The leading international shipping companies are regularly conducting campus interviews for the job placement.
This course consists of six semesters. The B.Sc (Nautical Science) degree will be awarded by the University on the successful completion of Three years duration. After 3 years, the cadets will be joining as the Trainee Cadet Officers on board the ship. They will have to obtain 12 months sea experience. On completion of 12 months sea experience, they will be promoted directly as SECOND OFFICER without any further examinations. With further sea service & exams, they will be promoted to Chief Officer and then becoming Captain of the ship.

wish you good luck and all the very best for your career hope after reading it you will be in some position to make a fir decision or can think upon which course you want to opt for..bye take care .. good luck...

there are two major differnces
1)btech marine engineering is equivalent to masters of nautical science in academic parlance.
2)nautical science is mainly a correspondence course for deck cadets who if they clear it will be promoted to third officer while btech marine engineering is application of engineering to marine machines, to become the engineer of a ship

hi

B.sc in nautical science means you could could go to the rank of captain it is of 3 year course, where as marine engineering is a specialized course of four year,you could be placed to the merchent navy or even indian navy as a enginneer
hope this information will help you
best of luck

B.sC IN nautical science enable a candidate to become captain of the ship or in other words master mariner.It is a 3 years course whereas B.Tech in marine engineering is a 4 years duration course, the role of marine engineer is to take care of maintenance of machines.

dear friend.....
there are a big difference in bsc nautical sceinces and btech marine engineering.....
if you done bsc nautical science......
then you have a opportunity for be the captain of the ship.........
but if you are a marine engineer ............
then you can handle only the equipment of the ship...............
and check about the fault services .......
so
best of luck

dear friend, both the courses are different form each other, nautical science is mainly a correspondence course for deck cadets and after completing this course you have a opportunity for be the captain of the ship.......and the marine engineer is to take care of maintenance of machines, and it is 4 year course and after complete this course , you can handle only the equipment of the ship.................

i think you have to satisfy with my answers...........

dear friend,
really you have asked a explainable question,
so i would request you to see the clear difference between these two on the websites
www.wikkipedia.com
o k
all the best

at is the difference between bsc nautical sciences and Btech marine engineering?And what are the advantages of the one against the other?

Thanks Sir,You provided such important & actual information about nautical science.

Sir,

Then Wat is the reflect which is more effective

dear Sir,

i am a BSc.(computer science) student. I want to join merchant navy. What can I do and what is best for me.

What is the difference between diploma in bsc nautical science and bsc nautical science

nautical science deals with the sailing side while marine engineering deals with merchanical side of the ship.Both are good field of studies
from edwin nfor camerooon

they are they same role if we talk about emergency.... in position nautical is the best for me...why? because there is posible that we will became a captain....which being a captain we have now a big responsible of that ship ... the ship i depending if we travel or not.......

difference between B.E marine engineering and HND in marine engineeering???

how much can i earn after doing nautical science?

kuch nai

hi

Dear fiend
Both are diffrent course Bsc nautical sceinces and Btech marine engineerin
In Bsc nautical science
then you have a opportunity for be the captain of the ship.

but In a marine engineer
you can handle only the equipment of the ship (engineering work)
and check about the fault services .
Best of luck

BSc nautical Science is a three year degree course which helps the candidates to become a captain of the ship. After this course the candidates have to attend 12 months sea course after which they are promoted as Captain.B.tech marine engineering is a four year course. They have to pass 4 modular courses after which the candidates are appointed as Junior Engineer on Merchant Ships.

m a marine engineer but would i became a captain?

i think if you study engineering you will be marine engineer and gradually will be chief engineer, and that is mean the highest technical level on board the vessel and the responsible person for all machineries on board the vessels and will hold first class certificate as captain, but will not involved in navigation matter and ship full management, and if you hold captain ticket that is mean you are a navigator also you have the authority to apply the low on board the vessel and the authority to deal with port state, gurisdication flag state and all external branchs, but you have to know, an engineering knowledge level higher than navigation and can be more useful to your future.
hopefully you got somthing.

difference between bsc nautical sciences and HND in nautical science

which branch will give me more money ? Natical or enginer?

from which medium i join nautical science?

B.tech marine engineering is much useful compared to B.sc nautical science.For B.tech marine engineering you need to write competitive exams like IIT/AIEEE/CET but you don't require any entrance test for B.sc nautical science.

After passing out the B.sc course you can apply only for deck cadet after having your 12 month sea training.But,B.tech students can apply for junior engineer in the ship.

all the best

Dear friend,
Both course are very valuable for your future,Marine Engineering is eqivalent to the Master degree course of nautical science,and B.sc nautical science is a graduation course...

What is the difference between bsc & diploma in nautical science

which course is best either b.tech marine or b.sc nautics

I need to get notes about nautical sciences

sir I have got 51%in pcm and 44% in english. Can I join merchant navy in D.N.S.?

what is deck cadet?

what is the minimum rank given to a candidate after the completion of Bsc through iitjee from chanakya

Any one Tell me in One-Word whether Bsc.Nautical science is best or B.E.Marine........Which has good scope.....Pls Help Me....Thnks in Advance........

To become a seafarer, following streams of entries (Pre-Sea courses) are available to Indian citizens in the Government as well as in private training institutions (recognized and approved by Director General of Shipping, Ministry of Shipping)


You can join merchant navy through two fields:
Nautical science and Marine engineering field
Navigational fields
Now since both the fields are different the eligibility for both of them is also different:
now the field in which you should be interested is Nautical science and Marine engineering field as you can do this after 12 th.

Eligibility criteria for Nautical science and Marine engineering:
You should have passed your 10+2 or an equivalent examination with physics, chemistry and mathematics.

you must be Indian citizen.

Age limit for candidates is 16 years to 19.5 years while training.

If you are filling the eligibility criteria then you can go for the exam.
In order to join the marine engineering you have to give the exam conducted by various institutes or you can opt for marine engineering in your engineering entrance exams.

what is syllabus of b-tech computer sc.

which is the most beneficial course between deck cadet and marine engineering

Respected sir ..if candidate is having 55% marks in pcm then one cannot apply for btec courses?
