Southern Academy Of Maritime Studies College

Down on East Madha Church Street in Chennai, you will find the Southern Academy Of Maritime Studies College. We are at number 108, which is a busy street not too far from the water. Being a maritime college, it makes sense for us to be here in this part of the city. The building is an older one, and the salty air from the sea means we have to paint the walls more often than most people. It is a noisy area with all the traffic and the church nearby, but we have gotten used to it. We have students coming from all over to learn about ships and the ocean. Our rooms are filled with maps and models of boats. The instructors are mostly old sailors who have spent years at sea and now want to stay on land. We don't have a big fancy lobby. You just walk in off the street and you are right in the middle of everything. We spend a lot of time on paperwork and making sure the students are following the rules. It is a tough subject to learn, so we keep things very practical. No one here is trying to impress anyone with big speeches. We just want the students to know their jobs well. It is a hardworking place in the 600013 zip code, just doing what needs to be done every day.
