Marine Engineers are recruited by Merchant Navy in engine department. There is no particular job available for a Electronic and Communication Engineering (ECE) engineering graduate in the field. To be eligible as a engineer in commercial ships, the candidate must have a engineering degree in Marine Engineering i.e B-Tech in Marine Engineering.

Otherwise your educational qualification would be considered as any other science graduate student, on the basis of which you can do Deck Cadet course leading to BSc in Nautical Science.

Its entrance test is conducted by Indra Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) with collaboration with Indian Maritime University (IMU). To be eligible for the exam, the candidate must have bachelor degree in Scince Stream/BE/B-Tech degree.
