Merchant Navy Officer

Hello Sunil,
Merchant Navy is a dream for many youngsters. It excites them. Idea of visiting different countries, fabulous salaries, etc. all play a part. In India too, use of water as means of transportation is going to increase. Hence, opportunities for employment are going to be great.On the other hand, aeronautical engineering has shown immense potential but my analysis says that opportunities are very limited. Opportunities are there in aviation but not in aeronautics. Hence, I would advise you to opt for merchant navy.

You should pursue graduation (B.Tech, B.Sc etc.), then you can apply in merchant Navy as an engineer, deck officer etc.

Hi Ayan,
Only candidates with PCM are eligible for merchant navy.
