Review of Hindustan Institute of Maritime Training.

Placements: Right now, 20% of my batchmates are placed, and others still have 1 year left while companies are approaching. The package varies from $550–$1,000 per month. Top recruiting companies are MOL, Zodiac Maritime, Synergy, and Sanmar. All cadets are placed in the same role – Deck Cadets.

In short, the college is for training competent and disciplined seafarers.

Placements: The college provides a golden opportunity to a good number of cadets at the end of the 2 years by giving them opportunity in MOL. After that, many top-notch companies offer placements such as Zodiac, Molta, Ozelar, Onesea, etc. Now many new companies are opening doors for HIMT in the upcoming days.

The mess food and accommodation totally disappointed us.

Placements: Probably 50 percent of cadets got placed. But the rest of students did not get placed. The college provides only 100 percent placement assistance. I suggest students do not believe blindly in the receptionist, as they are doing a scam. They should check twice. Only 3-5 companies attend the college for placements.

It is quite tough. The 2025 IMU CET cutoff for General category was between rank 1173 and 1343. One page lists only 30 B.Tech seats at IMU Chennai. Seat counts change, so check IMU's official notice. A good IMU CET rank matters most.
