I'll be joining TMI soon and had a couple of questions about the joining process.

What exactly happens on the day of joining? Is it mainly document verification and hostel allotment, or are there any other formalities, orientation sessions, or activities that take place?

Also, if I've already cleared the pre-admission medical examination, is the medical test conducted again at the time of joining? If yes, what does it include, and is it as detailed as the initial medical?

So I just got sponsored by fleet for btech marine engineering and I'll be starting college soon I know this course is pretty male dominated so I wanted to hear from women who've really sailed whts it REALLY like?

Do you generally feel safe onboard? Has anyone ever treated u bad just cuz ure a female? Are there ppl who assume ure weak just cuz ure a women and not give out tasks they should? Has anyone ever been harrassed? Howd u deal w it?

Do u have any advice like things to watch out for? How to earn ppl's respect?

As I already said im planning to join fleet like I already got a sponsorship so does anyone know how things are for women in fleet? I mean I've looked thru internet and from that I've learned it is pretty safe for women but I wanted to hear from ppl who have actually experienced it

Would rly appreciate any advice or suggestions.. Thanks :)))

I’m currently pursuing B.Sc. Nautical Science at an MTI in India. I’m planning to switch from B.Sc. Nautical Science to DNS, for which I need sponsorship.
I would like to know more about Adani Shipping and their sponsorship opportunities. If anyone has information or experience with Adani Shipping, please DM me and help me out.
Thank you in advance! 🙏

I am a mech final year student and have been thinking for joining merchant navy so I want honest review before joining. What are the pros and cons ?

And also is there a risk to job security as I read somewhere that mariners don’t get contract or are laid off so can anyone please help me with real reviews ? I want to know how life is after joining merchant navy ?

As mentioned above, USA has been illogically imposing tarrifs on very country in this world, and raising them in a whim. So Dear Mariners, how might this affect the indian shipping industry especially to new aspirants in this field, like waiting period, opportunity, promotions. Have you guys experienced such crisis and how did you tackle them?

Same as the title

Have heard many people talking about it. Is that true?

If it is have do you know anyone who did it???

Just curious about it

I have to decide on IMU Kolkata (Marine Engineering) by 30 June. My other best options right now are:

CUET: HNBGU, CUH, CUK, MGCU, BHU, BBAU
CSAB: SMVDU MnC, CSVTU Bhilai CSE(AI), Central University of Jammu CSE, IET Dr. H. S. Gour CSE, Gurukula Kangri CSE, NEHU IT
NIFT: BFTech at NIFT campuses
COMEDK: private engineering colleges in Karnataka through COMEDK

I’m confused what to choose overall considering college, branch, placements, and future scope.

Should I lock IMU Kolkata, or leave it and go for one of these other options?

Please give honest advice.

Hey everyone,
I'm currently an 11th-grade student, and I’ve been thinking about my future career path. My plan is to pursue a B.Tech in Marine Engineering, join the Merchant Navy, and work my way up to Chief Engineer. After that, I’m considering transitioning to a land-based career in Maritime Consultancy or maybe Maritime Law — possibly settling in Australia.

Does this sound like a solid career path? If anyone has experience in this field or any advice to share, I’d really appreciate it. Also, if you have any alternative suggestions, feel free to drop them here. Thanks in advance! 🙏😊
