[quote author=oniji post=10116079]Wao! what a nice discussion Marine Engineering is a rewardable career for those youth who does not mind the foot to get wet in occean.
A cash boom career that dependable when it comes to rolling dollars especially if u're lucky to work on oil rigs or FPSO platform or floating vessel no wonder Big Guys in the field changing cars/house like papers pulling their crowd in their varoius territory.

Nice one Sir,
For Class 1 & 2 CoC upgrade with MCA you'll still need to do written exams on Engineering Knowledge (General, Naval Architecture & Electrics), then specific; Motor or Steam or Combined.

like you said, MSc, BSc/HND are all just 'added' mostly for shore-side jobs.

Example: Minimum Requirement for a Technical Superintendent is a Class 1 CoC (Chief Engineer)...
Minimum Requirement for an Assistant Technical Superintendent is a Class 2 CoC (1st or 2nd Engineer)...
This is true for at least 85% of companies employing.

As a Chief Engineer without a degree you'll get an unbelievable job plus 5 times the salary of a bank Manager with PhD!

So i'll say for intending marine engineers, get required seatime, go for CoC first (Oron, Ghana, Egypt, Singapore, UK....pending on ur pocket), while getting the sea experience which is vital, do BSc, Master as part time, fix exams during ur leave, dont waste time!

but please note i understand NIMASA (with Oron) only offers Limited CoC for now, i'm not very sure of this, i did mine everything in d uk.

Boss please send me your contact. I need some information about coc
