Hii Adarsh You can join the merchant navy in two ways. If you do not want to study any further then there is deck cadet job for you to apply. The salary won't be great but good enough. Don't expect 6 digit figure for salary. If you can study further it would be nice. The officer level jobs are well paid and comes with additional perks. I will definitely recommend you to continue with your studies as pursue either B.Sc in Nautical Science or Marine Engineering course. Eligibility 1. You should have completed 12th with PCM. 2. Only umarried candidates are eligible. 3. The age limit is 20 years. 4. SC and ST can apply till 25 years. 5. You will have to pass a medical test. 6. Physical requirements will have to be met such as at least 5 feet height, 6/6 vision etc. You can complete the Marine Engineering or B.Sc in Nautical Science and then apply for some officer level jobs in marine engineering. Direct Entry As I mentioned earlier, after completing 12th you can apply for the deck cadet job. If a company selects you then it will arrange a 3 months long pre-sea training for you. Candidates who have completed B.Tech in Electrical/Mechanical/Technology are also eligible for several officer level jobs in Merchant Navy. However such candidates will have to undergo through a 9 months log pre-sea course in Marine Engineering from MERI. All the best.
