Good infrastructure, and worth the money you spent.

Faculty: Faculty are experienced, with industry experts like Dr. S. B. Senthil Kumar providing practical training. The three-year curriculum, affiliated with Alagappa University, emphasizes logistics and shipping with port visits. Exams follow a semester pattern, with practical assessment. Some criticize unrelated subjects like Tamil.

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

Faculty: Teachers here are all good and knowledgeable, and the teaching quality is good. Talking about semester exams, this college provides better practice and helps us prepare for the final IMU exams. 50% is the minimum marks to pass this DNS course. The academic block is quite small but fine.

Review of Diploma in Nautical Science course at IMI.

Faculty: Teachers are mostly ex-captains and some are even sailing captains who are highly knowledgeable. Exams are of decent difficulty and they teach everything as per the syllabus. The seamanship instructors or the wardens are on a bit of the other side in terms of communication but it's still manageable.

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

Faculty: Faculty members in IMI are good, I can say above average. Some professors are from the same field (like captain and chief engineer ), but some are from mechanical and another branch for workshops like subjects. Semester exams are above average as the university is IMU, so the papers are designed by them.

Best Maritime Campus and Well-Experienced Faculty Members.

Faculty: All the faculty members are well-educated and experienced captains. They teach us with their full potential, and we can understand them very clearly. By taking the DNS course, we study for 1 year and the other 18 months are for training. There is difficulty in each semester exam. The pass percentage for a semester is to obtain 50% marks for each subject, lab, and assignments.
