The birth of Indian Maritime University is a long-cherished dream of the maritime community of India. The Indian Maritime University came into being through an Act of Parliament (Act 22) on 14th November 2008 as a Central University and is poised to play a key role in the development of trained human resources for the maritime sector.
To facilitate and promote maritime studies, training, research, and extension work with a focus on emerging areas of studies like oceanography, maritime history, maritime laws, maritime security, search and rescue, transportation of dangerous cargo, environmental studies, and other related fields, and also to achieve excellence in these and connected fields and other matters connected therewith or incidental thereto.
India has a long maritime tradition and is the 20th largest maritime country in the world. The single largest contributing factor to this glorious tradition is the presence of a strong, dedicated, efficient, and reliable reservoir of officers and ratings of the Merchant Navy in India. The ever-increasing demand for Indian seafarers worldwide is a testament to the quality of education and training received in India.
