Marine engineering courses are associated with the construction and maintenance of the ships as well as other sailing vessels. The marine engineers are engaged in supervising the engine crew involved in operating the machines. They also check for the smooth functioning of all electric motors, steam engines and propulsive engines etc. The marine engineers continuously take efforts to improve the efficiencies of gas turbine, existing shipboard conventional steam, nuclear propulsion plants and diesel.There is good scope of marine engineering courses in India. This is the best field for getting excellent government jobs.

give me the list of top 10 colleges of marine engineering in india

i got 88% in 12th .i want to became a marine engeneer .my opinion is correct or not.and finally about the marine subjects.

From here i knew that the entrance exam of marine engineering held from april to june, can i know through whom this exam is taken out.?

Hello...

The scope in marine engineering is very bright i should say.
After completing your marine engineering you are send on the ships for months and get paid accordingly :

Fourth Engineer : $800 per/month
Third Engineer : $1200 per/month
second engineer : $ 1600 per/month
Chief Engineer : $2200 per/month

You have to pay 15 year of your service over the sea.
You have to work for complete 3 month away from family overseas, then next three month stay at home as a leave i would say the paid leave.

Good Luck....

Are Nepalies students permitted to get admission in marine enegineering?

This to all those people out there who dream of marine engineering as a highly lucrative job and a job ushering king size life.
well none of it is true.

being a marine engineer myself i believe that i have faced enough of this marine nonsensical drama and i am eligible to speak upon it.

the post would go long... so let me cut short.... there is 88% unemployment rate in marine engineering. that mean out of 100 students clearing only 12 get to be on a real ship.
secondly there are very few shore based applications for marine degree..... once marine always a marine.
thirdly the person claiming marine eng. to be highly rewarding job are the people who run these institutes who have no reagrds for your future career but only with your parents hard earned money.
so in conclusion a marine graduate would say that dont even mistakingly join merchant navy. it is a swamp covered by dollars and illusions.
