Dear,

To become a Trainee Engineer , you must complete an engineering trade approved by the Australian Maritime Safety Authority. A Trainee Engineer can then become a marine engineer by completing a Certificate of Safety Training followed by at least 36 weeks of qualifying sea service on board an appropriate vessel. 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:

Hello aspirant,

Marineengineers are specialist technical professionals who design, develop, build, install, inspect and maintain the propulsion systems, engines, pumps and other pieces of technical equipment that make boats and othermaritimevessels function effectively.

These guys work on all kinds of ships, from ferries, cargo ships and hovercraft to cruise liners and military vessels, such as frigates, warships and submarines.

Most marine engineers choose to specialise in one particular area. For instance, you might focus your efforts on the maintenance of engines and propulsion systems when ships are in dry dock. Alternatively, you may become an expert marine design engineer, where youll spend the majority of your time designing complex machinery using computer-aided design (CAD) software.

Marine engineering is not just about hands-on technical work, though  senior marine engineers usually have project management and budget control responsibilities, too.

Entry-level marine engineers tend to earn between 20,000 and 30,000 per annum. Senior professionals, however, can earn up to 80,000 and beyond. Freelance contractors can earn considerably more.

Your working hours will vary depending on the kind of work you are carrying out. For instance, if youre working on preliminary design work, you may simply be required to work a standard nine-to-five day. However, longer hours are usually more common for engineers who spend the majority of their time working on-site.

Travel is frequent for marine engineers, especially those engaged in specialist inspection and maintenance activities.

All the best.

Hi dear,

Hope you are doing well!

Now let's go through your question.

Job Profiles:

• Logistics Executive
• Logistics Manager
• GM SCM & Logistics
• Transport and Distribution Manager
• GM Commercial

Basically, Salary trend for marine engineers also depends on employment sectors. Major Employers of Marine Engineers such as  Hindustan Shipyard Ltd, Goa Shipyard Ltd, and so on. National Institute of Ocean Technology (NIOT) is another such firm that employs B.Tech in Marine Engineering degree holders to the post of Project Scientist with a basic pay Rs. 36200 to 40800/- per month.

As an Assistant Commandant in Indian Coast Guard, one can expect salary packages with in the range of Rs. 15600 to 39100/- per month with a grade pay of Rs. 5400.

Thank You & All the best!

However, in general you will firstly be responsible for liaising with your client to understand the specific requirements of the project.

Once you have been given the project brief, you will play an integral role in the research, design, development, testing, tweaking, production, installation and maintenance of a mechanical solution which satisfies the project requirements and fits in with rigorous time and budget constraints.Marine engineering is not just about hands-on technical work, though – senior marine engineers usually have project management and budget control responsibilities, too.
