B.Tech Marine Engineering

"IMU Chennai: Chart Your Course to a Seafaring Career!"

Overall Rating: 7/10

IMU Chennai's campus, previously known as NSDRC, might not be the biggest, but it has everything you need. It's located conveniently near the Naval Base and Hindustan Shipyard. The facilities are decent, and the location is pretty accessible.
