B.Tech. in Marine Engineering 

at IMU Chennai, East Coast Road

The programme and the resources available determine how many students are accepted into IMUC's B.Tech programs. There are currently 500 students enrolled overall, with 100 students enrolled in each of the following approximate B.Tech programs: mechanical engineering (100), electrical engineering (100), marine engineering (100), and electronics and communication engineering (150). Infrastructure accessibility, teacher strength, and programme demand are some of the factors that affect admission. The IMUC regularly assesses the intake capacity to guarantee academic standards are met and high-quality instruction is provided.

IMUC's most recent cutoff information for B.Tech students is expected to be made public after the announcement of the IMUC CET results, which usually happens in June. The cutoff scores for Marine Engineering, Naval Architecture, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Electronics and Communication Engineering are projected to be approximately 179, 175, 170, and 168 for General/EWS/OBC candidates, based on past years' trends. The cutoff points for SC, ST, and PWD applicants are anticipated to be approximately 15% lower than those for General, EWS, and OBC candidates. IMUC B.Tech candidates should start preparing for the IMUC CET as soon as possible. On the IMUC website, you can easily find the syllabus for the IMUC CET in addition to a number of practice exams and past years' question papers. It's also advised to sign up for coaching sessions at a respectable institution.

The cost of the Indian Maritime University's (IMU) B.Tech programs varies depending on the specialism. The cost of a B.Tech in Marine Engineering, for instance, is Rs. 2,25,000 per semester, whereas the cost of a B.Tech in Naval Architecture is Rs. 1,00,000. At the time of admission, candidates must present a certificate of medical fitness given by physicians certified by the Directorate; these fees are subject to change. It is advisable to check the official IMU website or get in touch with the institution directly for the most accurate and recent information. 

IMU Chennai accepts ranks from the Indian Maritime University Common Entrance Test (IMUCET) for BTech in Marine Engineering admission. The IMUCET Round 3 cutoff has been out. As per the data, the closing rank for BTech in Marine Engineering was 1343 for the students belonging to the General AI category.

However, with regard to the cutoff of Round 3, candidates belonging to the General AI category will have to get a rank upto 1343 or lower to be qualified for IMU Chennai admission for BTech in Marine Engineering. Please note that the cutoff ranks vary for different rounds and categories. 

IMUC offers a strong placement record for both its B.Tech Marine Engineering and B.Tech Naval and Ocean Engineering programs. But when it comes to placement, B.Tech Marine Engineering often performs marginally better than B.Tech Naval and Ocean Engineering. Greater Demand for Marine Engineers: Compared to naval architects and ocean engineers, marine engineers are more in demand in the maritime sector. This is due to the fact that there are more ships in use than there are navy ships and ocean constructions. Greater Opportunities: Marine engineers can find employment on a range of ships, including offshore vessels, cargo ships, cruise ships, and tankers. Ocean engineers and naval architects sometimes have fewer career options and are more specialised in their expertise.  The B.Tech Marine Engineering placement rate at IMUC has been approximately 95% on average in recent years, whereas the B.Tech Naval and Ocean Engineering placement rate has been approximately 90% on average. Furthermore, the starting salary for marine engineers at IMUC is normally approximately ?6 LPA, but the starting salary for naval architects and ocean engineers is typically around ?5.5 LPA. 

The IMU CET syllabus for admission to BTech at IMU Chennai includes the multiple-choice questions that are based on the subjects candidates have studied in their Class 12- Physics, Chemistry anf Mathematics. Moreover, the number of questions asked in the entrance exam is 200 multiple-choice questions. Syllabus—English, General Aptitude,  Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (12th Grade/Plus 2 Level/Intermediate/Equivalent Level/CBSE Syllabus).
