HIMT College: Best college in India for merchant navy career.

Infrastructure: HIMT has the best hostel facilities; 4 people share a room with bunk beds, and we have a good bond for that reason. We have individual study tables and shelves for storing our personal items. Our classrooms were air-conditioned classrooms with smartboards used by faculty members.

Faculty: Our teachers were the best role models; we learned quite a lot from them. We had experienced chief engineers and captains who not only taught us the syllabus but also built our personalities and confidence. They ensured we were ship-ready by the end of 4 years. They knew ship life was not the cup of tea for all, so they carved us properly for the actual requirement.

Other: We have intercollege events in all the semesters and it was fun participating in all those events.
