Excellent faculty, and the curriculum is career-focused for B. Tech students.

Placements: Campus placement is 100 percent. In 3 years, shipping companies start coming and sponsoring cadets. Merchant cadets don’t have a package. They get a stipend which varies between 700 US dollars to 800 US dollars per month. Top shipping companies include FEET, M.Sc.

Absolutely excellent college.

Placements: IMI has a dedicated placement cell to help students get jobs in the shipping and maritime industry with many reputed national and international shipping companies visiting the campus for recruitment. The institute provides training and guidance to prepare students for interviews and exams. Students from IMI are placed in roles such as deck cadets, marine engineers and shipping officers and IMI maintains a strong record of successful placements every year.

This college is okay to survive in, but it's not a very good option.

Placements: Students in my batch were sent for their interview to one of the companies, but the company hasn't responded to them yet. The top companies like M.Sc. Fleet, Demico, Wallem come every year to pick their candidates. Almost 98% of students get selected in M.Sc. Fleet, Demico, Dockendale, Wallem, and many more as cadets.

Review of Diploma in Nautical Science course at IMI.

Placements: The institute is now owned by owners of Fleet Management, so placements are pretty much 100% at this point. By the end of the course, all students got placed in our batch. Some are already sponsored and some got it afterwards. Students mostly are from M.Sc and Fleet courses here.

I'm satisfied with placements, average infrastructure, and fee is a little bit high too.

Placements: The placement at IMI is 100% for eligible candidates, and as the acquiring of feet parent company, the placement will be good. Currently, in the 4th year, all the cadets are placed in good companies except 2 cadets, as they are not eligible for company exams.

No if you did not score a minimum of 60% in PCM in your 12th grade examination you are generally not eligible for admission to the Indian Maritime University for the Marine engineering course even if you clear your compartment exam in the same year
