Review of Samundra Institute of Maritime Studies.

Placements: Samundra Institute of Maritime Studies provides 100% placements. Executive ship management is our recruiting company. There is a delay in getting the ship which is almost about 3-4 months after the passing out. The ESM company offers top roles up to chief engineer.

Review of IMU Chennai Indian Maritime University (IMUC).

Placements: The placements are provided by the college. Due to the pandemic, I don't know how many students got placed, but people were placed with an average package of around 25,000-35,000 per month. Due to the pandemic, the placements were affected. Students who are good at academics with no backlogs can get placed.

Review of IMU Chennai Indian Maritime University (IMUC).

Placements: Many good companies visited last year. All were MNCs that offered a basic salary package of 400-500 dollars per annum. From our 3rd year, out of 95 students, almost everyone got placed, i.e., 85% of the students got placed. After completing the course, many students with arrears too got placed in a good company.

I am moderately satisfied, as it is under development.

Placements: Every year, the placements are increasing. The placement cell is trying hard to place students. Our current pass-out batch has 90% placements. Top recruiting companies are Fleet Management, Home Groups, Seateam etc. Some seniors have even started sailing.

An amazing college with great placements and well-qualified teachers.

Placements: All DNS cadets are already sponsored. Also, in other courses, you will get many opportunities to get placed in companies. Many world-class companies come in IMI. The average students can also get placed easily. It requires only 70% to sit for companies, which is quite possible if you work a little hard.

Overall, it is a very good college which has a perfect balance of discipline and education.

Placements: Our entire batch got placed before the course started as in DNS, only those students will be accepted who have sponsorship letter from an RSPL registered company. Our college has tie-up with many companies, and they will call you for an interview when the company visits our college, but they generally call those students whose PCM percentage is more than 70. In our batch, we have students who M.Sc sponsors. Companies like Fleet Management, Dynacom, Dockndail, VRM, Scorpio Tankers and many others...

It is a good college for focused students.

Review of International Maritime Institute.

Placements: Only 4 major companies visit our college for placements, and each of them hires not more than 3 students. Even major companies have stopped visiting our college now, or since the market getting many officers and don't have enough jobs. So, the interview process made tougher. But our college wants more students to take admission in it because it is benefitting from them. After you pay fees, it doesn't care whether you get placed or not.

Our college needs to be improved more.

Placements: About 50%-60% of the students from our course got placed. Since it is a professional course, which includes on-board sea training, there are no such salary packages. However, as a cadet, you will get the average salary package ranging from 5 LPA-6 LPA. TORM Shipping, Fleet Management, MOL, Synergy, etc., are the top recruiting companies for our course. Internships are not offered in this course. Cadets are trained to be strong, matured, disciplined and responsible in this course. They are taught...

I am dissatisfied because the value for money paid here is waste.

Placements: About only one-fourth of the students got placed in 3 different companies which visited the campus recently. All the 3 companies were average and offered almost the same initial salary packages. Due to more intake and less approaching of companies, the placement condition here is uncertain and diminishing over time.

Our college provides quality education.

Placements: All the students got placed in parent company ESM Singapore, the waiting period to join ship is around 6 months for training. After clearing COC again you have to wait for approximately 8 to 12 months. Best in-house training is available in SIMS. Ships were also there on the campus for better training.
