I would recommend joining this college for curriculum, practical classes, and new experiences.

Infrastructure: Hostels are good and well-maintained, and classrooms and labs are available. The hostel food available is prepared with hygiene, but recently they changed the mess contract after I passed out.

Overall, it's a very good college.

Infrastructure: The college provides good infrastructure. Almost every lab is available that is required for the marine stream. It is a good library with all the marine-related journals and magazines. There are no facilities like Wi-Fi, canteen, and medical facilities. Games facilities are good. We can play a lot of games. There is no swimming pool.

The college is good in every aspect.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good. It has three blocks, and the main block is for classes. The 2nd block is for practical labs, and there is also a model ship. It's an original one which is placed in our college, and we can learn well.

It is a good college in India.

Infrastructure: All infrastructural facilities and the educational system are good. Our college provides all the facilities which are important for studying in a very well manner.

The hostel is also good and contains very well maintained rooms. In the hostel rooms, there is a separate study table and separate cupboard for every stude...

Infrastructure: The labs of our college is well equipped with all the equipment. Library is having all the books which we need and if we want to get the books it is very easy. Classrooms are equipped with projectors and computer system. Although the infrastructure of our college is above average.

Recommending this college at the rate of 80% for day scholars and 65% for hostellers.

Infrastructure: The college has Wi-Fi facility, but mostly, it can't be used by a student. However, the Wi-Fi facility is there for hostellers and gets turned on from the evening at an average of supporting 15 connections at a time with average speed. Among four years, only the first-year class got air conditioning installed. However, the hostel rooms and washrooms for the first year are devastating. Each classroom got its separate projectors and other facilities. On the note of hostel food, I don't want to giv...

Dissatisfied with the ability of this college of securing a cadet future.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure consists of only 4 buildings and an admin block. Two buildings are meant for BE students, while one is for B.Sc. The fourth is our canteen, which is just meant for eating food and nothing else, though admin block has better aspects. We have 2 libraries, 1 shipping campus, seminar halls and 2 gyms.

There are no disappointment in anything. If you can study well you will achieve your placement.

Infrastructure: In this, we have the number 1 ship on campus. Fully working machinery with this, we can get more knowledge. We can perform practically. From this, we need not worry about how we work on the ship. Should be a wonderful experience while working on the ship. Stimator room, computer labs, library and many more facilities are there.

Truth of School of Maritime Studies, VELS University

Infrastructure: India's only All steel ship in campus, one ground. Volleyball and badminton court. Mess and hostel are well-maintained. We have a 5-acre campus which is very small. Life is fairly restricted and we have literally no campus life. There is a hostel.

It is the best college for DME students.

Infrastructure: Our college provided Wi-Fi, canteens, and medical facilities. I would recommend it to all diploma mechanical students to join the merchant navy through this college for a better future. Labs and computer labs were well-equipped with air-conditioning and good staff members.

It is the top college for marine studies.

Infrastructure: All the facilities are available like the library, labs, classrooms, etc. But one problem is the net connection is poor. The quality of the food is good. The hostel facility is average and a swimming pool is also available on our campus. Medical facilities, sports, and games are also available.
