ENGINEER OFFICERA career in the Merchant Navy as an Engineer Officer can be a rewarding one, both financially and in terms of job satisfaction. There are only a few ex-seafaring Engineers who do not look back at their time on board ship as a happy and worthwhile experience. For the able young officer, this system provides a smooth and rapid path of career development. The process is likely to take less than eight years from the commencement of cadetship till qualifying with Class 2 Certificate and probably half as long again before an appointment as a Chief Engineer can be expected.
Most ships have 4 or 5 Engineer Officers ranging in seniority from the most junior 5th or 4th Engineer Officer through the ranks of 3rd and 2nd Engineer Officer to finally Chief Engineer Officer. In progressing from the Engine Cadet to Chief Engineer Officer, one can expect to serve in each of these capacities in turn. Promotion from one to the other will depend on the Certificate of Competency held, the quality of experience and of course, personal merit. Most Marine Engineers do not remain at sea throughout their working life. After having gained their Class I Certificate and experience as a senior officer on board, they seek employment ashore. Shore based employers generally have high regard for the seafaring engineer and consequently the transfer from shipboard to land based employment is usually easily achieved.
CAREERS AFTER SEAFor those aspiring to step ashore after a career at sea as an Engineer Officer, future career paths include:
• Government Surveyors of Ships & Machinery• Classification Society Surveyors• Service Engineers of Specialist Plant and Machinery• Lecturers of Maritime Education• Engineering Superintendents of Shipping Companies

DECK OFFICERYou will start your career in the Merchant Navy with a certain period of training in Nautical Training Institutions ashore. Thereafter you will go to sea on merchant ships as a Deck Cadet for a further specified duration of sea service. This sea-service on board is an essential part of the training, which will lead you to your immediate goal of Deck officer Class 3 Certificate of Competency.
After obtaining the Deck Officer Class 3 Certificate of Competency, you will progress to the rank of Third Officer and later to Second Officer. After passing further examinations interspersed with specified periods of intervening sea service, you will attain the rank of a Chief Officer, and finally that of a Captain, in command of a ship.
In progressing from a Cadet to Captain you can expect to serve in each of these capacities in turn. Promotion from one to the other will depend on the Certificate of Competency you hold, the quality of your experience and, of course, personal merit.
For the able young officer this system provides a smooth and rapid path of career development. Even so, the process is likely to take less than eight years from the commencement of cadetship till qualifying with Class I certificate, and probably, half as long again before appointment as a Captain can be expected.
A career in the Merchant Navy as a Deck Officer can be very rewarding, both financially and in terms of job satisfaction.
CAREERS AFTER SEAFor those aspiring to step ashore after a career at sea as a Deck Officer, future career paths include areas such as:
• Government Surveyors of Ships• Cargo and Insurance Surveyors• Marine Superintendents of Shipping Companies• Pilots of Ships at ports• Dredging Master abroad Dredgers Lecturers in Maritime education

ELECTRO TECHNICAL OFFICER (ETO) COURSEin collaboration withIndian Institute of Technology, (IIT) Madras
The Centre of Continuing Education, INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, Chennai, has signed an agreement with the ACADEMY OF MARITIME EDUCATION AND TRAINING (AMET), Chennai, to jointly conduct an ELECTRO-TECHNICAL OFFICER (ETO) TRAINING PROGRAMME for retraining Radio Officers of Merchant Navy Ships, whose jobs have become redundant after the new Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) regulations came into force on February 1, 1999. Under these regulations, Navigating Officers who are trained in the Distress Alert and Search and Rescue aspects of GMDSS will carry out all the related communication functions.
This is the first endeavor in the world, to retrain Radio Officers within a period of 24 weeks and make them full-fledged Electro-Technical Officers, who are able to discharge an enlarged scope of responsibilities on board Merchant Navy Ships in a meaningful and productive manner.
This unique programme designed by experts in Shipping field, is a balanced blend of theory, laboratory work and practical training. This course of study covers Shipboard Electrical Power Systems. Control Systems and Automation, Satellite Communication Systems, Marine Radar Systems etc. This course will he handled by eminent faculty members of IIT Madras and experienced specialists at AMET, drawn from the Shipping Industry. After completion of the programme, Radio Officers, holding Certificate of Proficiency (First or Second Class) will become Electro-Technical Officers.
The Electro-Technical Officers will eventually replace two categories of Officers on board ships, namely, Radio Officers and Electrical Officers. On successful completion of the course, an ETO Certificate will be jointly issued by IIT Madras and AMET.
EligibilityPreferably Radio Officers holding second class COP with about five years sea service on board Merchant Navy Ships. Electrical Officers and B.E. (EEE or ECE) are also eligible.
Duration24 weeks (12 weeks at the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras and 12 weeks at the Academy of Maritime Educational and Training, Chennai).
