Answer 1

The term marine engineer can also refer to a designer who specializes in the design and building of marine machinery, and occasionally, specialists in naval architecture and shipbuilding.

Marine Engineers are the officers of a ship that operate and maintain the propulsion and other systems onboard the vessel. Marine Engineering staff also deal with the "Hotel" facilities onboard, notably the sewage, lighting, air conditioning and water systems. They deal with bulk fuel transfers, and require training in firefighting and first aid, as well as in dealing with the ship's boats and other nautical tasks- especially with cargo loading/discharging gear and safety systems, though the specific cargo discharge function remains the responsibility of deck officers and deck workers.

Sometimes, they are involved in the design and construction of these complicated systems. New design is mostly included within the naval architecture or ship design.

The field is closely related to mechanical engineering, although the modern engineer requires knowledge (and hands on experience) with electrical, electronic, pneumatic, hydraulic, chemistry, control engineering, naval architecture, process engineering, gas turbines and even nuclear technology on certain military vessels.

Answer 2

When designing a boat/ship, there are two key players. a naval architect and a marine engineer. The naval architect is responsible for hull design and overall layout and stability, etc.

The marine engineer is responsible for everything that makes the boat work. This means, every system from propulsion to plumbing to electricity.

A marine engineering degree can get you into many different fields. Ship surveying, shipboard engineer, designer, contracter, etc etc. Many doors are opened for marine engineers.

I would say its a very interesting course if you're into machinery and learning how things work. Be prepared to be well versed in areas like diesel engines, HVAC systems, electricity and many others.

Answer 3

Marine engg is the branch of study related to coastal navigation,design and architecture of ships(basics only),technological details of marine engines etc..
It is a very good profession to earn money and fame
You should attend a written test,physical test and group discussion to enter that course of study
Salary may be very high to your imagination and some months work and some months leave is availed.
Try to be a marine engineer and may God bless you...
