🚢 How Delhi Maritime Academy Helps Students in Placements After Maritime Courses

Introduction

Many students complete their maritime courses like GP Rating, DNS, B.Sc. Nautical Science, B.Tech Marine Engineering, GME, or ETO, but the real challenge starts after the course—getting a placement on board a ship. Without the right guidance, students struggle to secure their first sailing contract.

This is where Delhi Maritime Academy (DMA) plays a vital role. Since 2016, DMA has been guiding and preparing students not just for their courses, but also for placements and sponsorships with leading shipping companies.

Why Placements Are Important in Merchant Navy

A course certificate alone does not guarantee a sailing job. Placements are crucial because:

•They provide the first ship experience (Sea Time).

•Without placement, students cannot progress in their career ladder.

•Shipping companies prefer candidates who are well-prepared for interviews and sponsorship tests.

How DMA Helps in Placements

1. Sponsorship Preparation

DMA offers special classes focused on sponsorship tests and company-specific requirements. From written exams, psychometric tests, to technical interviews, DMA prepares students in all aspects.

2. Mock Interviews & Group Discussions

Students often lack confidence during company selections. At DMA, regular mock interviews and group discussion sessions are conducted to boost communication and professional skills.

3. Company-Specific Training

Different companies like Synergy, MSC, Goodwood, Scorpio, Fleet Management, and Anglo-Eastern have different selection processes. DMA trains students with customized preparation for each company.

4. Placement Guidance After Courses

Even if you have already completed a course—be it GP Rating, GME, ETO, DNS, or B.Tech Marine Engineering—you can still apply for placements through DMA’s guidance. Many students who were struggling for jobs got placed with the help of DMA.
