India has a long standing tradition of producing high quality officers that serve the world's merchant marine fleet. To a large extent this was made possible by the Indian government's visionary initiative of establishing a few excellent maritime training institutes immediately after independence.
In recent years India's position of leadership has been significantly weakened by an inability to keep pace with the growth in demand in terms of numbers as well as technological sophistication. Inadequate allocation of resources for maritime training from the government and lack of a suitable environment to facilitate private investment led to this decline. However, by the mid 1990's the government had made the necessary changes to enable private initiatives in maritime training.
The Tolani Group, which has a long tradition of establishing and managing institutions of higher learning, was preparing during 1995-1997 to found a new campus-based institute that would mature into a university. As the Tolani Group's primary business is ship owning and ship management, it was acutely aware of the need for India to produce increasing numbers of well educated marine officers. Hence it was decided in late 1997 that the group's new educational initiative should take the form of a modern, purpose built maritime institute.
The first degree program students were accepted in August 1998 and accommodated in temporary facilities until the new 100 acre campus was made operational in late 2000.
ACADEMIC
CAMPUS BASED:
The B. Tech. Marine Engineering programme at TMI is governed by the Academic Rules prescribed. The programme is spread over a period of four years, structured into eight academic semesters. In addition to theoretical and practical training, students are required to participate in the co-curricular and extracurricular activities of the Institute.
The Programme Design
The syllabus and curriculum have been designed to firstly impart a comprehensive foundation in fundamental engineering sciences, and to provide an exposure to some areas of humanities and the social sciences. Thereafter, the curriculum focuses on specialised knowledge of theoretical and practical marine and mechanical engineering, with an emphasis on skills and competencies required to operate, manage and maintain shipboard machinery.
Each Year...
The first year courses introduce the engineering sciences and the second year courses build on this knowledge base, examining the application of these sciences in a marine engineering context. The third year courses cover essential marine machinery together with advanced theoretical inputs relevant to marine engineering. In the final year, the focus is on ship operations and specialised marine machinery.

Audit Course:
Foreign Languages (Spanish, Japanese, French, German, etc.)
(Please note that the Audit Course does not form part of the curriculum)
Swimming: It is mandatory for all TMI students to learn swimming and pass basic requisite test before they can proceed to sea.
Every student enrolled in the 4 year Marine Engineering programme is expected to spend one of the final two semesters working as an intern in a maritime, industrial or commercial organisation. The Internship Programme is a conscious effort to integrate university education with the industrial world. It serves as a practical orientation, which helps students understand and deal with issues that are difficult to stimulate in a classroom / laboratory situation.
Benefits of the Programme
As an intern, each student gets an opportunity to apply the skills and knowledge base acquired on campus and to experience a real world environment of responsibility. This is of great importance to the learning and maturing process that students must go through.
Internship at Sea
Under current rules laid down by DG Shipping, marine engineering graduates pursuing seafaring careers must undergo only 6 months of sea going service as trainee engineers before becoming eligible to take the Class IV Engineer examination. It is widely accepted however, that a person needs more than 6 months of sea service to develop the requisite watchkeeping skills. Recognising this, TMI has designed the internship programme to give students 22 weeks of sea going service prior to graduation and as a part of the curriculum. Therefore, a TMI graduate engineer will have had about 11 months of sea going service before appearing for the Class IV Examination. This, together with the practical, hands-on experience students get with various engineering systems installed at the campus, gives TMI graduates a head start in developing their careers
Internship Ashore
Internship in a shore based industrial company exposes students to aspects of mechanical and / or electrical engineering that add a lot of value to the their knowledge base. This enhances the students prospects for shore based opportunities.
The Internship Programme can also form the basis for eventual permanent placement of the Institute's graduates.
Assessment of Performance During Internship
During the internship semester, the organisation with whom the student is undertaking the internship programme conducts periodic assessments of the intern's progress, performance and achievements. After completion of the program, the student submits a detailed report of his internship experience and makes a presentation of the same at TMI.
The overall grades obtained by a student during the internship semester take into consideration the assessment of both the organisation and TMI's faculty.
In order to ensure that the internship remains meaningful, TMI maintains close contact with ship-owning and ship-management companies as well with industries associated with the maritime industry.
To turn students into successful marine engineers of the future, TMI has adopted a unique approach that builds a strong knowledge base. Students are given the skills with which to apply this knowledge in a shipboard environment and are also inculcated with sense of discipline, team spirit and the right attitude for achieving success.
Building a strong knowledge base
The Marine Engineering Programme has courses that cover a wide gamut of areas in mechanical, electrical and marine engineering, as well as the general sciences. TMI faculty members have decades of experience both in academics as well as industry, and have an in- depth understanding of machines encountered in typical ships.
Skills to succeed in shipboard environment
To intimately acquaint students with the rigours of the marine environment, the Institute is equipped with simulators that can be used to deliver a realistic rendering of the ship board environment. Practicals on campus are complemented by a one-semester industry Internship Programme whereby students carry out regular work onboard a ship or in a shore-based industrial unit for 22 weeks in the final year of study.
Inculcating the right attitude
Today discipline, team spirit, a well-rounded personality and professional pride are prerequisites for a successful merchant navy officer. To groom its students for excellence in this context, the Institute maintains the requisite disciplinary regime, requires participation in both team and individual sports, fosters cultural interests and pursues a curriculum committed to a holistic education. Needless to say students are continually evaluated along all these dimensions.
The performance evaluation system employed at TMI has been designed to match the objectives of the curriculum, which is to develop both theoretical knowledge and practical skills as well as inculcate various other qualities like team spirit and leadership qualities.
Continuous evaluation
The effort and progress of the students in each subject is continuously assessed throughout the semester by grading performances in assignments, class discussions / presentations, tests and laboratory / workshop work. A special emphasis is placed on report writing.
Examinations
Written, oral and/or practical examinations are conducted in each subject, at the middle and end of each semester. The written tests are either "open book" or "closed book". As per TMI norms, the answer books, after evaluation, are distributed back to students so that they can review their results and work on areas of improvement.
For every subject, each evaluation component is assigned a weightage for incorporation into the cumulative marks scored for the semester. Using this method, each student receives an overall percentage scored in each subject during each semester.
Extracurricular activities
Physical fitness is critical to a successful career in the merchant navy. Participation in sports and the disciplinary regimen of marching and physical education also earn a student credit marks.
The classification of marks will be as follows:
For further details refer to IMU Academic Guidelines.
With effect from Semester I of year 2011-12, TMI is using the fine-grained grading system prescribed by BITS, Pilani. Depending upon the total marks scored by the candidate in each subject, he / she is awarded letter grades (A to E) for that subject at the end of each semester. Each subject is also allotted a certain number of units, depending upon the number of class hours allocated towards it.

TMI follows a Relative Grading System, where the grade allotted is not only dependent upon the marks obtained by the student, but also the performance of all students in the class.
Semester Grade Point Average
Using the number of units and grade points achieved in each subject, a weighted average grade point is computed at the end of each semester for each student. This composite numerical grade is the Semester Grade Point Average (GPA).
Cumulative Grade Point Average
The CGPA is a single composite measure of a student's performance to date at the institute. It is calculated by taking the average of all individual Semester Grade Point Averages.
Other information
There are a number of possible ways one can become a qualified Marine Engineer. However, the track that provides the strongest foundation in engineering theory and practical skills is by commencing with Tolani Maritime Institute’s (TMI’s) degree programme in Marine Engineering.
The chart below shows the requirements for progressing from a qualified Watch keeping Engineer to Chief Engineer. New Watch keeping Engineers today command a remuneration of about US$ 2,200 per month on board after taxes while Chief Engineers start at a minimum of US$ 9,000 per month. However, it is relevant to note that typically ships' officers spend about 6 to 8 months in a year working on board and the rest of the time on leave. Therefore, a Chief Engineer can expect to earn at least US$ 55,000 per annum. At the same time, a sea service requirement of 12 months can be expected to take about 18 months to complete. Merchant Navy Officers are allowed to claim tax-free income subject to conditions / tax regulations.
Upon graduation from TMI, the students get exemption from appearing in the Part A of the DGS Class IV Examination. However, they have to complete a minimum of six months sailing and 3 advanced modular courses before they become eligible to appear in the Class IV Part B Examination as per Directorate General of Shipping (DGS), Govt. of India regulations. After passing this exam, they become certified Watchkeeping Engineers, commonly known as MEO Class IV.
It is not uncommon for Marine Engineers to retire from sea service well before the traditional retirement age. They are then able to find numerous opportunities ashore with shipping companies, hotels, hospitals, oil and gas companies, insurance and survey agencies and other organizations using similar expertise.
The ship board training of six months after graduation is a mandatory requirement for those who wish to pursue ship board career and the institute will assist in arranging the ship board training without any extra fee.
The B. Sc. Nautical Science programme at TMI is governed by the Academic Rules prescribed. The programme is spread over a period of three years, structured into six academic semesters. After three years training at the campus, students will have to undergo a one-year structured training programme on board ships or other marine related activities. In addition to theoretical and practical training, students are required to participate in the co-curricular and extra-curricular activities of the Institute.
The Programme Design
The syllabus and curriculum have been designed to impart a comprehensive foundation in the nautical technology knowledge requirements for deck officers, and to provide an exposure to some areas of humanities and the social sciences. Thereafter the curriculum focuses on the specialised knowledge of theoretical and practical aspects of Nautical Technology, with an emphasis on those skills and competencies that are required for Navigation, Cargo Operations and Ship Maintenance and Operations.
Focus on Practicals and Development of Skills
The essence of the B. Sc. Nautical Science programme is to qualify students to become competent watch-keeping officers in the maritime environment, capable of navigational and cargo work duties. The course is designed to provide a solid foundation in Engineering Mathematics, Physics, Navigation, Cargo Operations and Practical Seamanship.
To facilitate the unique and practically oriented training, the Institute is comprehensively equipped with a mock up that is a representative of a shipboard environment. Students are given hands-on experience in the detailed maintenance techniques and procedures for the equipment they will be operating as deck officers.
A shipboard environment is unique and training must be suitably tailored. At TMI, due emphasis is placed on training in seamanship and contextual training to intimately acquaint students with the demands of the marine environment. Students are also given training in boat handling, sailing, rope climbing and rope ladder climbing.
By the end of the third year....
The curriculum on campus is structured so that by the end of the third year all students complete all the modular courses required of any one who is employed on board a ship. In addition the workshop training ensures that by the end of the third year the students are also reasonably skilled in the use of shipboard tools, maintenance procedures and other practical seamanship, sailing and boat handling skills.

Other Information
Upon completion of a 3 year Nautical Science degree course, one year sailing as Cadet and passing the Second Mate's Examination, the cadets will be eligible for appointment as Third Officers on merchant navy ships. A Third Officer receives emoluments of about US$2,200 per month plus free boarding and lodging while on board. Merchant Navy Officers are allowed to claim tax free income subject to conditions / tax regulations.
As a Deck Officer, one will progress along the chosen career path, moving up the ranks by periodically undergoing competency examinations conducted by the government. In addition to taking certain modular and preparatory courses, one will need to acquire minimum stipulated amount of sea service time before appearing for the examinations. From the rank of Third Officer, one will progress to a Second Officer, a Chief Officer and ultimately the Captain of a ship. With promotions come substantial improvements in remuneration. A Third officer presently receives emoluments of about US$2,200 per month net of taxes while a Captain receives about US$9,500 per month or more net of taxes. It takes about 8 years for a Third Officer to get promoted to the rank of Captain, depending on individual capabilities and the job opportunities available.
It is not uncommon for Deck Officers to retire from sea service well before the traditional retirement age. They are then able to find numerous opportunities ashore with shipping companies and other organisations for providing services to the shipping and other allied industry.

Objectives
Ships today are extremely expensive and therefore are operated and managed more and more with zero error tolerance. The approach of trial and error is not acceptable any more as mistakes are costly both directly and indirectly. The commercial pressures on the master are exhaustive. Furthermore shipping today is rather overregulated and various agencies are constantly visiting ships for inspections and reinspections to ensure compliance with these regulations. The reduction in ships' complement and the presence of multi-nationals on board require the senior shipboard staff, especially the master to possess not only professional competence but also excellent personnel management qualities.
This program is aimed at providing necessary inputs to take care of these demands on the master. After successfully completing this program the masters would be able to carry out the assigned duties more efficiently. Similarly, this program would be extremely beneficial to the chief officers who would thereafter be better equipped to take over the command of a
vessel.
