No, you cannot join IMU Vishakhapatnam for the M.Tech in Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering programme without taking the IMU CET. The admission process for this programme requires candidates to qualify in the IMU Common Entrance Test (IMU CET) or have valid scores from the Andhra Pradesh PGECET for admission.
For Indian nationals, the IMU CET is mandatory, while foreign students may have the option to apply through the Direct Admission of Students Abroad (DASA) scheme. Thus, taking the IMU CET is essential for eligibility in this program.
