A sailor’s ability to navigate a ship on the oceans for making from port to port and along the coastlines of the world is based on his/ her knowledge of Nautical Science. It is the precise study of the principles and practices of operating various types and sizes of vessels, some of which are highly specialized and state- of-the art in Inland waters, Coastal areas and on the high seas, and includes topics such as navigation, ship stability and ship handling, cargo-work, propulsion, and meteorology, to name a few. TNU is also one of the few colleges in Eastern India that can boast of an in-house, high-tech Ship-inCampus with advanced bridge simulation facilities. This novel infrastructure facility, built in compliance with international standards house original ship equipment in order to give budding Marine Engineers and Nautical Science cadets a hands-on experience of what a naval career entails.

Placement: 90% of our 2019 pass out batch students of Marine Engineering & Nautical Science have been placed in Destan Ship Management Pvt. Ltd., Apeejey Shipping, MOL, Mercator, ONGC & Ocean Sparkle.
