Diploma of Engineering Technology in Marine Engineering

Diploma of Engineering Technology in Marine Engineering is designed to cover engineering knowledge and practices related to marine engineering. It also emphasize on the handling and maintenance of ship’s main propulsion plant, marine power plant generation, ship construction and naval architecture. This programme also include basic mechanical engineering knowledge. The programme is conducted for six semester which includes industries training for 24 months.

Education and training programmes conducted are designed not only to meet but exceed the minimum level of skills and competencies stipulated in the International Conventional on Standards of Training and Watch Keeping for Seafarers (STCW) 1995 and others relevant national and international standards and guidelines. Students completed this programme will be exempted from Part A Certificate of Competency for Fourth Class Engineer Officers> 3000 kW unlimited by the Marine Department, Ministry of Transport (MOT) Malaysia.

Realizing the vast array of the maritime sector that includes marine engineering, specifically watchkeeping engineers in which the institute had taken the initiative to develop a programme namely Diploma of Engineering Technology in Marine Engineering – DME with the support from shipping company, ship owner, shipbuilding and ship repair industrial experts.
