Training of personnel, both in technical and commercial aspects is extremely essential for the successful functioning of any industry. With the growth of Indian Merchant Marine, gradually emerged T.S. DUFFERIN (subsequently replaced by T.S. RAJENDRA and now T.S. CHANKYA), Directorate of Marine Engineering (DMET) (now called Marine Engineering & Research in India – MERI), Lal Bahadur Shastri Nautical and Engineering College (now called LBS College of Advance Maritime Studies & Research – LBS CAMSAR) and other institutions for training navigating officers, marine engineers and ratings. Precisely to fill up this need, an Institute of Shipping named after late Shri Narottam Morarjee, in recognition of his great pioneering contributions to Indian shipping, was established on 3rd January, 1969 under the joint auspices of the Government of India and the Indian Shipping Industry. The Institute is registered under the Societies Registration Act as well as under the Bombay Public Trust Act.
