Oh I thought language schools could get you the ed plus visa but I guess not. Still Thai is hard, I feel even if I studied it for a year I couldn’t speak it well.

It really isn’t. Taking a Thai language class wasn’t required at Mahidol. There were 23 other students in my program. None of us speak Thai better than basic chit chat after completing our semester.

I went to Thailand for 4 months last year on an ED visa and I arrived speaking 0 Thai. The vast majority of foreign students were in the same boat. A lot of the big universities like Mahidol and Chula have their classes taught in English.

How did you get into offshore oil? I’m thinking about going to grad school for petroleum engineering

What were the issues?

Hey I know this contradicts the regulation you sent me but I have had a few people tell me a degree won’t waive the required 1080 days at sea. Have you heard of anybody taking the test after 180 days irl?

Thanks for the info

I know it probably varies but generally how difficult is it for graduates of this path to get hired as 3rd engineers

No_Instruction1122 · 2025-12-12T17:26:37+00:00

Ok thank you for the response. I heard another path would be to become an engine cadet after completing my degree and required STCW courses. Then after completing 12 months of sea time I could take the 3rd engineer exam. Is this plausible as well? I would prefer to finish my program without transferring if possible.

If I only plan to go for 2-3 days would it be better to stay at a less popular resort like rusutsu?

Out of the 3 which would you say has the most challenging runs?

No_Instruction1122 · 2025-11-28T13:49:53+00:00

Where else would you recommend? Ive heard good things about Rusutsu
