The Curriculum for the Three Year “B.Sc. (Nautical Science)”

Preface
The syllabus for 3 year B.Sc. (Nautical Science) Degree course has been tailored to suit the present
need of the Industry.
The syllabus is drawn up keeping the objective of providing Maritime Education and Training
including competencies that one would require to progress in the career from a cadet to Master
Mariner.
The syllabus contents have been drawn up keeping in mind the country’s sound education system at
the 10 +2 level which is the entry level qualification for this programme.
Continuous interaction with the Industry experts have impressed upon us to revise on the present B.Sc.
(Nautical Science) syllabus.
The English syllabus has been revised to the demand of time and industry. An attempt has been made
to have soft skills learning in initial four semesters by including all aspects of soft skills in 80 hours.
In line with the National Education Policy for training in the developing technology which is going to
be the need of the hour, FIVE micro credit courses, Cyber Security, Artificial Intelligence, Machine
Learning, Internet of Things and Blockchain Technology have been added.
The old computer language C++ has been replaced by the Python language which is in current use.
The Navigating officers are required to critically think in complex situations and make intelligent and
quick decisions, and to address this a Critical Thinking and Leadership course has been introduced.
The traditional Chartwork is reduced to give more space to Electronic Chart Display & Information
System.
Maritime Risk Assessment is an integral part of seafarers’ life and to address this a micro credit course
“Maritime Risk Assessment” has been included.
All the semester courses have been re-structured and well defined by writing Specific Learning
Objectives.
The syllabus has been revised in such a way to keep the total hours in semester between 520 and 540.
The pedagogy will be as per NEP, i.e. a blend of classroom lectures, practical training, Simulator
based training, Group activities / Presentations, etc. to the possible extent.
To verify the learning of the cadets, continuous assessment in the form of Formative and Summative
assessments is planned as per NEP.

It is suggested that efforts should be made to take the students for ship visit, alternatively use of “Ship
in Campus” can be made.
A Nautical Science career in Non-academic areas, demands a very high level of discipline and overall
growth of an officer to take up a highly demanding job of a Navigating Officer aboard a modern
merchant ship. In view of this, a highly integrated Education and Training schedule is drawn up to
provide for development of extra-curricular activities (Parade, Swimming, Boat rowing, Sports,etc.) of
an individual. This includes the necessary regimental training in uniform for disciplined education.
The Hon’ble Vice-Chancellor, School Board Members of Nautical Studies, Industry experts, Head
(CTCE & Academics), Office of Controller of Examinations, IMU HQ and faculty of IMU Campuses
and affiliated colleges have offered valuable direction and key inputs during revision of the syllabus.
