Marine engineering applies basic engineering principles to systems design, construction and operation in predominately Maritime environments. This includes wide variety of seafaring vessels, docks, harbors, freight-handling facilities, oil platforms, and ocean renewable Energies, shipbuilding facilities, but also marine engines, motors and Maritime Law etc.
Marine Engineering degree course at the department of Marine Engineering was designed to produce graduates with comprehensive theoretical knowledge and practical competencies to work in the industry.

Applications are called from the prospective candidates through the Ocean University website in the relevant year. Students will be selected based on highest z-scores and You will be required to attend an interview.
In the first year, you’ll develop your foundation knowledge in basic engineering science and introductory level modules on thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, workshop technology, programming, engineering mathematics and computer aided modelling. You’ll gain the field and laboratory skills and semester end field visits.
In your second year, you’ll focus to deep learning modules such as manufacturing engineering, mechanics of machines, Naval Architecture, Control Engineering, Applied thermodynamics, Electricals Machines, Mechanics of Materials, Design of Machine Elements, Probability & Statistics, Welding & Fabrication and Hydraulics and fluid Machineries.
In your third year, you’ll study advanced topics such as Ship Construction, Engineering Knowledge(Motor), Engineering Knowledge(General), Ship Stability and Machine designing projects where you will have more exposure to work with Industry related applications of the engineering. In the end of the year you will be assigned for an internship in the reputed organizations to develop your skills on industry based job training and required to produce a report.
In the final year, You will have more applied engineering knowledge on Machine designing, Naval Architecture, Ship Resistance, Shipboard Electricals & High Voltage with a Research and Dissertation component. The degree program will be completed with submitting research dissertation.
After completion of the degree, students will develop to set their mind to work in any profession or environment related to mechanical, marine engineering and management in world class industries.
