Hello dear

The navel architecture deals with marine design, marine system, marine safety and management. They design, construct the ships, boats and other marine structures and offshore vessels. If you have interest, then you should surely pursue this career path.

After completion of B.tech in Navel Architecture, the job options are -

* Port Manager

* Chief Marine Engineer

* Technical Superintendent

* Marine Surveyor

* Second Marine Engineer

Besides, the fact is that the scope of Naval Architecture in India is narrow, since last few years, due to the fall in price of oil. The demand of oil has reduced. The recruitment of navel architect has decreased now.

The second fact is, there are no underwater parks in India or being constructed. So, no job option related to underwater construction in India.

Also, the colleges offering this course is less in India.

Rethink and contemplate on your career options. If you have strong interest in marine design, then proceed.

Or else, you might try few other professional courses too.

All the best for your future !!!

Hello Rinoy,

I would say the scope is quite less. Naval Architects are specialized mechanical engineers. Very few institutes such as IIT Kharagpur, IIT Madaras, Cochin University, etc, offer this course, and are facing a decline in the placement section for this branch. Initially the placements were quite good and there were very good offers among the students, but now due to political as well as financial reasons the companies are limitting the recruitment of these. Most of the scope is in foreign countries, however you may join Indian army as a naval architect. Find the link below:

I would say there is a huge usage of geometry, physics and drawing in this field as you will be taught ship designs, wind turbines design, movements, etc, so choose this only if you have immense interest.

Hope this helps
