beniwal & jagan:
Kindly re-read my post. It's not a simple diploma, it's DNS that leads to b.sc nautical science(refer imu.edu.in).
what i asked was if this has got the eligibility criteria for CSE, as it is not a 3year classroom program, but 1year classroom=DNS. Then 1.5year on ship+6months classroom=B.Sc nautical science. Thanks for replying anyway.
