Absolute good for this fees with this faculty, with a very good placement.

Placements: 20% of the students were already placed when they came to college. 60% of the rest were placed by the college. In my course, the average salary package is between INR 15,000 to 50,000, which depends on the type of ship and company. Many companies visited our college and selected cadets. Companies like Synergy, Chevron, New Shipping Kaisha, Andromeda, Fleet Management, Anglo-Eastern, M.Sc.

For those who are interested in Merchant Navy, this college is very good.

Placements: More than 50 students are placed out of 120. More shipping companies are coming for placement. For joining this college we need to give IMUCET. For sponsorship in DNS we have to give Synergy sponsorship exam. Most of the passed candidates get placed in college. Otherwise we have to take placement off campus.

Best college in South India (Hindustan institute of maritime training, HIMT).

Placements: In our batch, 35 students were enrolled, and 26 of them were placed during their studies. The two-year fee for the ETO program was around 3 lakh rupees, and it may have increased since then. However, the college does offer scholarships for students. The college also has good placement opportunities, with top companies like MEARSK, MSC, Synergy, D-Manico, Marshall, Scorpion, Thomee, Evergreen, and Anglo-Eastern coming to recruit students. Of the students who were placed, 26% got internships with ...

Apart from placements everything was good at Coimbatore Marine college.

Placements: Coimbatore Marine College did not have very many placement opportunities for its students. Very few of the students in this batch get placed at this college. The average package offered at the college was between 3 and 6 LPA. Students were not getting proper placement support from the college. Internships were also not given to the students.

The fortune of seafarers.

Placements: HIMT has a placement rate of almost 90% for the ETO course. The companies that come to recruit cadets are reputable and offer high-paying packages of over $600 at the training level. Companies that have recruited cadets include Maersk, BSM, OSM, MSC, Synergy, TOM Shipping, and VR Maritime. All cadets are selected as trainee ETOs and later promoted to ETO.

My life at HIMT is awesome.

Placements: The companies that came for recruiting were Maersk, BSM, MSC, DYNACOM, and many more, providing good takeaways from HIMT College. 80% of students were placed inside the campus while studying, and the rest also got placed due to the chances they missed in previous interviews.

Overall experience was good.

Placements: Placements are good at this college, and they put a lot of effort into getting every cadet placed during their courses. However, I would recommend that everyone get a sponsorship before coming to this college. Do your research before coming here, and if it's a good fit for you, then it's one of the best places you'll ever find.

Best Maritime college for ETO course.

Placements: Almost all of the students who did well academically got placed with a very good fresher package. Some of our batchmates got placed in ITF companies and RPSL companies. I was one of those who got placed at the college as an ETO for an M.Sc. shipping company, and I am very happy with the package as well.

Highly qualified faculty, industry relevant curriculum. Extremely satisfied with placement.

Placements: HIMT College has a placement record of over 95%. Every student enrolled in the course has secured a placement before or during the course itself. Top recruiting companies like BSM, MASERK, MSM, and GOODWOOD seek graduates from ETO's. In my course, out of 35 students in the batch, 9 secured placement before joining the course. The average salary package ranges from $500 to $800.
