Ans: You have asked many questions. I am trying to answer those. To become a Marine Engineer, you can do master's degree from IITs. Madras IIT is the best option in India. For that you have to give GATE. As a marine engineer, one of the primary career paths is working in the Merchant Navy, where you’ll be responsible for the operation and maintenance of ship machinery. But it is not white color job like software engineering, and you have to be physically and mentally strong. Marine engineers in the Merchant Navy can earn a substantial salary, particularly at senior levels (e.g., Chief Engineer). However, entry-level positions might start lower, with significant increments as you gain experience. The job market in marine engineering can be volatile, influenced by global trade, oil prices, and geopolitical events.
