BSc (Hons) in Oceanography is one of the subjects of BSMR Maritime University Faculty of Earth and Ocean Science. Oceanography subject is available in some other universities besides here.

Many of us have many questions on the subject of oceanography. So let's discuss

Brother, what is oceanography?

Oceanography, as the word suggests, is the study of the ocean. Our Earth has more water than land; About 71 percent is water, the rest is land. This vast body of water is home to a wide variety of animals and plants. A large part of the oxygen we need to sustain life comes from the ocean, i.e. from marine plants. Again, due to rough seas, major disasters can occur. Like Cyclone, Tsunami etc. And not to mention the need for marine resources. So there is a need for study and research about oceans. Oceanography basically has four main parts.

• Theoretical Oceanography (Biological Oceanography); Where mainly marine life is taught.

• Chemical Oceanography (Chemical Oceanography); This section deals with the study of the chemical elements of the ocean, their arrangement and reactions.

• Physical Oceanography (Physical Oceanography); This part teaches about the physics of ocean currents, tides, temperature, density etc.

• Geological oceanography (geological oceanography), which deals primarily with the geology of the ocean floor.

While there is an opportunity to specialize in any of these four areas, each area is equally important in studying oceanography.

So brother, I agree, what will be the test?

Subjects that will be tested:

English, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology for Oceanography/Marine Fisheries.

Test Method – Impersonal

Time- 90 minutes and full marks 100.

Brother, what is the point in this matter?

Currently, the blue economy or sea-based economy has become a basic weapon all over the world. Bangladesh, which is a landlocked land, has been motivated to progress this change towards a higher growth rate itself. However, research in marine conservation, marine resource utilization, and marine science is still incomplete.

Bay of Bengal, is an invaluable resource that can play a fundamental role for progress and prosperity in our lives. It has an untapped potential in fisheries and marine production. However, marine environment and marine conservation needs research in our country. We need informed yet accurate information on rich news, border woes, and vulnerable marine biodiversity conservation.

The country lacks skilled manpower in marine science, and this is a critical issue. Therefore, it is important to encourage interest in marine science among students. This can help them develop their skills and abilities, and enable them to play a role in the betterment of their country's public as a skilled marine scientist.

Brother, where is the career in this subject?

Oceanography is a specialized field in which the changing world of oceans and coastlines is brought to light through the process of data collection and research. Working in this field does not require going to the ocean or its shores to create an impression that all oceanographic work does not just revolve around the bottom. Rather, it requires gathering information through multiple means, such as satellite data, modeling, and laboratory testing, which can generally be in-house work.

Bangladesh has many research institutes to improve research and education in oceanography, which can create invaluable opportunities for students interested in this field. Bangladesh Oceanographic Research Institute (BORI) is a pioneering research institute working for oceanography and marine conservation.

It is important to encourage students to take interest in this field by providing research and training in various aspects of oceanography. It can help them prepare their careers and help them grow in prosperity and talent. Their career and research capabilities can be enhanced through proper training and a course on this path.

A student in oceanography is able to use his talent and interest to make an invaluable contribution towards the prosperity and progress of his country.

Naval Architecture & Offshore Engineering (NAOE)

Architecture or architecture is what we more or less understand. Maybe the building or any art that is being built today is the contribution of architecture. But what is naval architecture or naval architecture? Naval architecture or naval engineering is a branch of engineering that deals with various types of naval architecture, industry, infrastructure construction, maintenance, and solutions to various problems.

In simple terms, from dinghies to boats, our Naval Architects can work in various aspects of marine and boating and play a vital role in this field. Also, offshore engineering part of offshore engineers is responsible for proper design, construction, maintenance etc. of a navy vessel. In addition, valuable minerals are extracted from mineral water through offshore engineering and related research institutes help.

The offshore engineering field is going to flourish in Bengal and it is important to have talent and interest in it. It gives us a gateway to a ready and prosperous life and thereby helps the country to grow and prosper.

Subjects to be examined:

English, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and ICT.

Test Method – Impersonal

Time – 90 minutes and full marks – 100.

Here's one thing to note…

Once you think about it, here you have the opportunity to be an architect and an engineer at the same time! you can be

• Naval Architect

• Offshore Engineer

• Drilling Engineer

• Marine Engineer

• Subsea Engineer

• Production Engineer

• Structural Engineer

• Maintenance Engineer

• Project Manager and many more depending on your skills. This subject is taught in such a way that you can become a competent engineer in addition to being a competent naval engineer.

Is there any joy in the life of naval architects?

This subject is one of those subjects in the world that has no end of adventure and thrill. The 4-year course will cover everything from regular field trips to ship stays.

Since it is a public university, it can be a very good opportunity for students who are currently enrolled. For this reason, the students who want to get admission should acquire the maximum skill on the subjects of their respective units. And there is no substitute for practice.

Last – (but most important)

Students must give utmost importance to the entrance exam. That is why it is important to have maximum practice on the previous year's Maritime Admission Question Bank . Also you should practice previous year question banks of RU , CU , DU and JU . One of the best means for this can be Chorcha app . Best of luck to all the students who are willing to take part in the Maritime Entrance Test.
