Good Placement Opportunities and Experienced Marine Faculty Members

Placements: I would like to proudly say that HIMT College is one of the best in terms of placements. Top shipping companies like D'Amico, Maersk, M.Sc., Dynacom, MOL, and Goodwood are recruiting cadets for all departments, including Nautical Science, Marine Engineering, and ETO. My batch has a strength of 30, with 8 cadets placed in D'Amico Shipping and Synergy halfway through the course. The placed cadets will start as Trainee Marine Engineers (TME) and will earn around 750 USD per month, with potential in...

Satisfied with the teachers and facilities available at this institute.

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.

True Review of IMI by ex student .

Placements: Good thing is that in dns course, we first get placed in a reputed company, then our course starts. All the students were placed in a good company. The maximum package was around 8.4 LPA and the minimum was 3 LPA with average of around 5.4 LPA. Top recruiting company was M.Sc. Feet Management, Wallem Ship Management All students will get a chance to do internship in above mentioned companies .

If I talk about placements, they are average; faculty members are knowledgeable.

Placements: Around 50% of students placed in 2024 have placements that, if I talk about them, are quite poor, like the minimum of 3 LPA and the highest of 4.5 LPA. Companies basically come from the logistics sector only because our course is in logistics retail, e-commerce and supply chain.

Reviewing Coimbatore Marine College.

Placements: This course is under IMU University. The eligibility for this course is the need to clear IMUCET exam with a good rank having 60% in PCM and 50% in English compulsorily. You need to take a medical test from DG approved hospital which includes an eye check up. I secured 4200 rank in IMUCET exam. Our batch of B.Tech ‘23 with a strength of 38 students includes one girl. The IMUCET exam is not a tough exam. You just need to concentrate on school level PCM only along with a little aptitude knowledge,...

Pursuing GME with Synergy sponsorship at HIMT.

Placements: The placements at HIMT are very good compared to the other training institutes, because in our batch, 85 percent of the cadets got placed in various companies like Synergy, IMEC, Fleet Management, etc. My placement story has been one roller coaster ride. There have been so many ups and downs throughout this journey but by god's grace I came out victorious.

Pursuing GME at HIMT with IMEC sponsorship.

Placements: HIMT has good placement records and sponsorships. Our batch’s placement is about 85%. Most of them are under sponsorship programs and others received placements in various companies like D'amico, Sanmar shipping, and Eastaway. I was sponsored by IMEC. It's the International Maritime Employers Council. HIMT guided me to get through IMEC sponsorship. My starting salary as an apprentice is about 750 USD, and once I'm promoted, my salary would be around 2000-10000 USD per month.

Good faculty, good environment of the college, placement not good, food also not good.

Placements: There is no opportunity for placement. They only focus on girls' placement. I scored 77%, but I didn't get a single opportunity from the campus. They just said companies will come but our course is only for boys, yet we didn't see a single company. All the companies came for B.Sc. They just told us to give exams for formality. Everyone knows that companies will not take DNS.

Right place to do your DNS.

Placements: I recently completed the DNS course from HIMT College. I found it to be a very valuable experience. If you want to join the Merchant Navy, this is one of the ways. To join this course, you have to give the IMUCET exam, then you have to take sponsorship from companies like Synergy, Fleet, VR, etc. Only then can you join this course. The placement is 100% for this course because you are already sponsored when you join the course. The starting package will be from $500 to $600. It will increase whe...

Best college for B.Sc. Nautical Science in India.

Placements: The B.Sc batch of 2024 saw 90% placement. The major recruiters are Damico, MOL, MOLTA, Eastaway, Marshal Shipping, Sanmar, etc. I am glad to have been placed in Sanmar Shipping with a starting package of 60,000. If you stay all clear throughout your semesters, you will definitely get placed.

Best campus for maritime studies.

Placements: In DNS, there are about 120 students, out of which more than half have already been placed or sponsored, and the rest are given priority even after passing out from the campus. The faculties are well-trained with sailing experiences, and visiting faculty members are currently working in the industry. After the course, you can join a ship as a deck cadet, where you'll learn and get trained to be a better seafarer.

The college is satisfying and the placements are good.

Placements: The cadets should not have any arrears during their academic time. They are recruited by companies like Synergy, Damico, Sanmar, Maritime, Molme, Molta, Chellaram, Chellship, BSM, and BSW Dynacom. The batch which is about to pass out this year has around 80 cadets out of which 60 got placed. Last year’s batch had 90% placements rate.

The best maritime college in South India for B.Sc. Nautical Science.

Placements: It was always a better choice to choose HIMT College for my career progress, as today I stand proudly in front of my parents with a job in hand as I pass out. I am placed in D'Amico, and so are my friends too. HIMT College really helped us a lot in training for the interview.

One of the best maritime college in India.

Review of Hindustan Institute of Maritime Training (HIMT).

Placements: The placement program on campus is good; we have companies like MOL Management India, MOL Tankers, EAST-AWAY X-Press Feeders Pvt Ltd, etc., coming in. To be honest, not everyone will get placed on campus, but management tries its best to get everyone placed in companies, even after passing out. Currently, 50% of our batch is placed, hoping to achieve 100% placement before graduating from college.
