IMU Kolkata Placement FAQs
What is the placement rate at IMU Kolkata?
IMU Kolkata's official website doesn't publish a placement percentage. Third-party sources report a placement rate in the range of 90–95% for B.Tech Marine Engineering cadets, though this figure isn't confirmed by the university itself and can vary by batch and whether a student has cleared all backlog papers (a placement eligibility requirement at IMU).
What are the B.Tech placements like at IMU Kolkata?
B.Tech (Marine Engineering) cadets are placed through campus drives by shipping and maritime companies, with placements reportedly starting from the 2nd year for some cadets.

What packages does IMU Kolkata offer students?
Packages at IMU Kolkata don't follow a standard corporate LPA structure like an engineering placement. Cadets typically start with monthly training stipends onboard (\(500–\)1,200/month range per third-party estimates), which convert into higher officer-level pay once they complete sea time and certification; this is standard across the maritime industry.

Shore-based technical roles reportedly start around INR 3–7 LPA. These are third-party estimates, not figures published by IMU.
