BP Marine Academy begins admission for all courses. Candidates can apply for admission in courses such as Advance Diploma in Nautical Science, HND(NS), Marine Engineering Course for Graduates (GME) etc.
India is surrounded by water bodies on 3 sides of its geography, which makes sea travel a prevalent practice. The Indian Merchant Navy consists of passenger transport ships, cargo carriers, ore carriers, and specialised ships. Considering these, the sea-going vessels have to be navigated by highly trained professionals. In an age of increasing quality education, the work of these trained professionals becomes even more important. BP Marine Academy facilitates high-quality maritime education and aims to overcome all challenges faced by working professionals at the sea. The BP Marine Academy, Navi Mumbai was established on 5th December 1997 with the purpose of bridging the gap between the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required in marine organisations compared to the existing knowledge, skills, and attitudes that the seafarers have.
The strict imposition of the rules and regulations on the sea farers by various marine organisations like the Flag State Administration, IMO, etc., requires the latter to be very well trained in order to achieve their goals successfully. This is the exact purpose that BP Marine Academy courses help in serving by creating a training center that aims at enhancing the knowledge, skills and the attitude of all the sea farers. The center inhabits state of the art learning methods and teaching aids along with practical demonstration equipments that can successfully meet the latest requirements of training.

Dear student,
Yes, refreshing expired AFF, MFA, and PSCRB courses is usually possible, although things might have changed a bit since 2014. Contact B.P. Marine Academy or the issuing authority directly to confirm current requirements and procedures. You will be asked to explain the gap in experience and show that you're competent with your maritime skills. Depending on the specific courses and any updates since you last took them, they might suggest shorter refreshers, quick assessments, or even needing to retake the whole course.
Hi,
B.P. Marine Academy Mumbai does not provide scholarship opportunities but you may contact the college officials and tell them your problem. They might be able to provide you with a solution to get admission to B.P. Marine Academy Mumbai courses.
