Course Curriculum Overview:

The GME course is 1 year per sea course where we have to cover the entire marine engineering. The course is split into two semesters and the exams are conducted by collage itself and the exams in terms of difficulty level is manageable .

The best part of HIMT is the faculties and instructor, I acquired lot of knowledge and skills from them which I didn't receive during my 4 years of mechanical degree program.
The campus life is colorful with full of activities to keep you engaged as onboard a ship

Dislikes

We get minimal leaves, most of the time we are in campus only.

Course Curriculum Overview:

GME course curriculum is vast as we need to acquire the ship engineering knowledge in this 1 year, but with the help our faculties and infrastructure facilities learning process has been simplified. Our curriculum is as prescribed by DG shipping. Our syllabus is covered in 2 semesters. In both semesters we have end semester exams. Exams are conducted by the college only, so not too difficult.

The hands on job practice what we get in HIMT, I don't think any other college will provide such facilities, faculties train is to become the best seafarers in the industry
We have beautiful green lush campus, lot of places to sit and meditate in the calm nature, we also have a temple within campus

Dislikes

We get minimal leaves as it's a fully residential course and they train us to not take leaves to have that ship kind of feel where you don't get many shore leaves

Course Curriculum Overview:

Our course curriculum is very detailed as this is a 1 year bridging course, we have got lot to study in this 1 year, even though we are doing this course after mechanical engineering degree, there's lot to study about marine machineries. So one has to dedicately spend time for your studies.apart from academics we also have pt, parade and other routines to upskill our discipline standards.
