Hello aspirant,

Job Duties and Tasks for: " Marine Engineer " 1) Design and oversee testing, installation, and repair of marine apparatus and equipment. 2) Conduct analytical, environmental, operational, or performance studies in order to develop designs for products, such as marine engines, equipment, and structures.

Marine engineers and naval architects may work directly on ships. Marine engineers are also known as marine design engineers or marine mechanical engineers and are responsible for the internal systems of a ship, such as the propulsion, electrical, refrigeration, and steering systems. As in many engineering occupations, they oversee the construction of their designs. Schooling to become a marine engineer generally requires at least an undergraduate degree, which takes about four years of full-time education to complete.

A marine engineer needs:
  • an interest in science, technology and nautical matters.
  • practical and technical skills.
  • problem-solving ability.
  • a high level of numeracy.
  • teamworking and leadership skills.
  • for some jobs, to be prepared to work away from home for long periods

Marine engineering is what enables us to build oil rigs, pumping oil out of the ground, underneath our oceans. These are important , as we all know how much the world relies on fossil fuels. Secondly marine engineering is necessary to build large, efficient and fast cargo, tanker, and other commercial ships.

Bachelor's degree is generally required for this position. A Marine Engineer gets an average salary that can range from 64000 to 96000 depending on experience and domain knowledge. Marine Engineers receive salaries of Eighty Five Thousand dollars per annum.

Hope you get into this. Good luck.
