I'll rate Tmi as 10/10 because of its placements, best facilities, and experienced faculty.
Placements: I'm currently in my 2nd year. I got placed in the 1st year only within the 1st semester. The placements here are top-notch in very reputed companies like Chevron, Torm, Stena, and BW. No concern about placements if you don't have any backlog, you can get placed easily.
Infrastructure: Free unlimited Wi-Fi is provided both in classrooms and hostels and in the library. Food quality is excellent and better than that of any other college. A sickbay (medical facilities) is also on the campus with a certified doctor. TMI is known for its events and sports. Every sport like football, cricket, basketball, squash, lawn tennis, table tennis, and various athletic events, is organized.
Faculty: All the faculty members here are highly qualified and have great experience and knowledge, and the quality of teaching is excellent. It makes the students ready for the industry. Semester exams are moderate, depending on your preparation. 50% is the pass criteria.
Other: I chose this course because marine engineering is the best technical degree in which we can work onboard with machines. This course offers a great package too. But the fee for this course is a bit high, and that's the only drawback. The events in TMI are of the next level, they spend a lot on events and fests, and the campus is very neat and clean. Scholarships are also given to the students who performed well in academics.

Review of Tolani Maritime Institute- TMI.
Placements: About 98% of students from the current 2024 batch have been placed in top shipping companies such as M.Sc. Wallem Seapeak, etc., with a lot of them having scored an on-board internship of 6 months. Students who did not get an onboard internship will be completing their internship in PVD before they can board their respective ships and start their careers as fourth engineers. The nautical science batch saw a 100% placement rate as of right now.
Infrastructure: TMI has provided ethernet connectivity services in each room providing high-speed Wi-Fi, but it does not work sometimes and is switched off after 11 PM every day. The academic block has a workshop that has machines for educational purposes such as late machines, milling machines, shape, etc. It has several labs such as electrical and electronics labs, marine machinery labs, a thermal engineering lab, etc. The campus also has two drawing halls for engineering drawing courses two academic blocks and one block consisting of simulation rooms. The campus has a library which has a wide range of books.
Faculty: Faculty members mostly consist of retired chief engineers and captains. They provide good quality teaching. A lot of professors are PhD holders or have achieved some sort of recognition in their respective fields. The course curriculum is mostly relevant to the current demands of the shipping industry and is set by the Indian Maritime University. Semester exams are relatively on the tougher side but can be easily cleared if attention is paid in class and if studies are done regularly.
Other: I selected this course because I wanted to join the Merchant Navy as an engineering officer. The best thing about this course is that it derives its roots from mechanical engineering so we also have touch with the mechanical field. There are several fests which are conducted in this college including Horizons which is the main event and Transtech which is a technical fest conducted every year.

Cadets' review of B.Tech at Tolani Maritime Institute.
Placements: This year, 98% of students got placed. A few don't get placement because they have backlogs. To get placement in TMI, the simple criterion is that cadets should clear all their backlogs. Few companies are BP, Wallem, Fleet, Synergy, Carnival Cruise, WSM, and many more.
Infrastructure: There is unlimited Wi-Fi in the classroom and library areas. In the hostel, we get Ethernet support from 5 PM to 11 PM on weekdays, and on weekends, we get Ethernet from 1 PM to 11 PM. The food facilities are excellent, and even the faculty and staff come to the hostel mess to have their lunch. There are various sports facilities in TMI, like track and field, a basketball court, a badminton court, a swimming pool, a football/cricket ground, cricket nets, and many more.
Faculty: Faculty members are very helpful, and they are well-qualified. Many of them are ex-Navy officers as well as merchant Navy mariners. They share their experiences with students so that we can relate to things properly. The semester exams are conducted by IMU only.
Other: B.Tech in Marine Engineering offers the opportunity to become a Chief Engineer in the shipping line after years of hard work and experience. We don't get as many holidays as other colleges, as it's a residential course and a marine-related course. Every semester, events are conducted, likeFreshers' Party, Horizons, Transtech, and many more.
