Academic Facilities
Academic facilites are targeted at the knowledge development aspect of learning at TMI. These facilities include air conditioned classrooms, laboratories, a library, an auditorium and faculty offices.
 Classrooms
Most classrooms are fully air-conditioned and are equipped with modern audio-visual aids. Subjects
that require specialised equipment to be used during instruction are taught in suitably
equipped, dedicated rooms. Each classroom can accommodate upto 40 students, and larger
drawing halls are available when required.
Laboratories
Laboratories are essential in supporting the classroom taught aspects of science, engineering
and computer related subjects. To fulfill the needs of students and teachers, various well-equipped
laboratories have been set up to demonstrate and teach the principles of material testing,
mechanics, hydraulics, electric control systems, electronic equipment and electric machinery.
Computer based training modules like Full Mission Ship Handling and Engine Room Simulator including Electronic Chart Display System, Radar and Marine Communication Simulators are also used extensively.
Computing Facilities
 The campus has three modern computer centres equipped with high performance servers and
workstations. A wealth of software and several operating system platforms provide extensive
opportunities and capabilities for advancing computer skills and allow the use of modern
teaching methods like computer simulation and computer based instruction. TMI is keenly aware
of the importance of computers in all professions and will ensure that these facilities keep
evolving to keep pace with the needs of students to develop a high degree of proficiency in
computers related to their discipline.
A dedicated broadband connection from VSNL supported by an ISDN backup connection provides Internet
connectivity to the campus. The fully switched network plus WiFi capability in the residential hostels provides residents with 24x7 Internet access from almost anywhere on campus.
A 3rd computer centre is due to be commissioned shortly.
Library
 The 7,000 sq. ft. library caters exclusively to the students and faculty of TMI. It offers a broad range of titles relevant to maritime disciplines, mechanical engineering, computers and the
basic sciences. The Library also receives a large number of popular magazines and current maritime
journals. Multi-media resources are also available and are expected to grow. The library remains open over extended hours for the benefit of all the residents and is used
extensively for research related to project assignments.
Auditorium
 A 280 seated fully air-conditioned auditorium with modern projection facilities and carefully
designed acoustic characteristics provides a venue for seminars, large group presentations and
special events including students' extra-curricular activities.
