HIMT excels in training.
Placements: I am part of the DNS Batch of 2025-2026. We are placed in the Mediterranean Shipping Company. Our batch is 100% placed in the course. The highest package offered is $370 per month for the position of deck cadets upon joining the job.
Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure during the course are phenomenal, with Wi-Fi. Classrooms, and labs equipped with the latest technology. Food quality is great. Hostel, canteen, medical, and sports facilities are very good.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is excellent. The course curriculum is relevant and meets industry standards. Students are trained to be industry-ready, with a passing rate of 99% in the college.
Other: DNS is the branch that I always want to select to enter the maritime industry. The best thing about the course is that during our training in HIMT, we get hands-on experience with real-life situations on board. Furthermore, the college is well-equipped with events and fests. The campus crowd is multicultural and multilingual. It helps us learn the art of adaptability. Extra activities are also available for every student to engage in every day.

Absolutely worthy to join HIMT. HIMT teaches us to tackle loneliness, homesickness, and challenges.
Placements: The placement record of our batch is 100 percent. We were placed by M.Sc. before joining HIMT itself. Top recruiting companies for DNS are IMEC, Synergy, BSM, etc. No internship is required, and it will be provided during this course, and the one job we all will get will be as a deck cadet on a merchant vessel.
Infrastructure: In our whole campus, accommodation is provided, an academic block, a galley (mess room), turf for playing football, cricket, basketball, a ground for volleyball, a library, and each class has a maximum space of 40 students, with smart board facility as well as AC provided there.
Faculty: Teachers are so helpful as they were Captains who already been there on ships and carried out many cargo operations, mooring operations, voyages, etc., during their whole career. They taught us everything according to the syllabus and also taught us the real-life challenges that we gonna face in the upcoming years at sea.

Excellent facilities and instructors.
Placements: I am pursuing a Diploma in Nautical Science (DNS). Our batch has 40 students, and all have sponsored by the Mediterranean shipping company (M.Sc). We are completing the course in December 2025 and joining as deck cadets in the upcoming months. HIMT has a very good placement record. Companies like BSM, M.Sc, Synergy, Zodiac, MOL, and PIL regularly visit the campus.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is the best in HIMT. It includes all the required departments, like we have a VR lab, library, seamanship lab, workshop, turf for playing cricket, football, pickleball, badminton, and basketball. The quality of food is good, and the hostel has very good infrastructure, and there is an indoor sports room on each floor of the E block.
Faculty: The teaching quality is excellent, all the teachers are captains, chief officers, chief engineers, and well-trained instructors. All the teachers have excellent experience and knowledge, and they will prepare you for the upcoming difficulties and problems on board.

Asia's top maritime college.
Placements: About my course, it's a one year course in which we complete our pre-sea training in college and 18 months on-board ship. Also, in our batch, all got placed in the world's largest shipping company, M.Sc. And many companies are visiting and giving more placement opportunities to our college students.
Infrastructure: About infrastructure, it was very spacious and green campus. Everything that we had, like a hostel room, swimming, computer lab, Seamen ship lab, was built with world-class technology, and they have a VR simulator which made us learn with real-life situations.
Faculty: Teachers from our campus are highly educated, qualified and experienced, with them, we gained more knowledge which helps us to survive in any worse condition in our shipping life. Also they do have a feedback system in which if we feel like not understanding, we can tell them so that they'll help us to give more solutions and help us to learn more easily.

Right place to do your DNS.
Placements: I recently completed the DNS course from HIMT College. I found it to be a very valuable experience. If you want to join the Merchant Navy, this is one of the ways. To join this course, you have to give the IMUCET exam, then you have to take sponsorship from companies like Synergy, Fleet, VR, etc. Only then can you join this course. The placement is 100% for this course because you are already sponsored when you join the course. The starting package will be from $500 to $600. It will increase when you get promoted.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of HIMT College is far better than other maritime institutions. We have VR labs where we can get a better understanding of ship structure. There are also different types of labs like SS, MEK, Electrical, and Automation. We have a SIC (ship in campus) in our campus. All classes have smart boards. AC classrooms are there. Hostel facilities are also better; rooms are in good condition with attached bathrooms. Four-seater rooms are there for the DNS course.
Faculty: Faculty members at HIMT are something different. Being away from home, I never felt sad because of them. Our faculty members train us to be the best of the best by sharing their immense knowledge and mentorship. My favorite faculty in HIMT is Capt. Vasanth Sir and VG Sir.
Other: HIMT is simply a mind-blowing campus. We love it here in all aspects.
