Career Option: Merchant Navy

Merchant navy is a lucrative job opportunity for Science Stream aspirants dreaming to earn a handsome salary at work. The job is not always in sea(a common misconception), there are also a series of on shore jobs. But sea jobs fetch more money than shore jobs because of the “risk factor" involved. The general trend is that a new joiner spends initial years in sea and later part on shore.


The other eligibility requirement is that the candidate should have obtained at least 60% aggregate marks in PCM in 12th and 50% in English in either 10th or 12th standard. Age limit is 17 to 25 years.


The education fees are high but it is worth giving because the returns are higher and loan is easily available for the education. Sea life has a lot of free time for one’s creativity and exploration.


Selection exams are conducted twice a year. Detailed Information can be obtained from the below websites and the attached brochure:
