Hello Aspirant,

After completing 10+2 EXAMS there are mostly 3 ways to join Merchant Navy

  • Diploma in Nautical Science (DNS)
  • B.sC in Nautical Science
  • B. Tech (Marine Engineering)

As you mentioned in the question, you have done BBA now if you want to join merchant navy you have to do anyone of the above mentioned courses.

Here are some common eligibility criteria for both the courses:

  1. The Candidate must be in good physical and mental health and free from any kind of bodily effect which can interfere with efficient performance at sea.
  2. Eye Sight should be 6/6 normal in each eye separately(Nowadays if a candidate is not having 6/6 eyesight he/she can opt for lasik surgery and get its eyesight corrected before joining course.
