MIT Manipal Review

After hearing about the college life, courses and quality of faculty about colleges like VIT Vellore, SRM, and MIT, Manipal, I decided to go ahead with MIT, Manipal. Minimum marks required were 50% in Physics, Chemistry and Maths. There is an entrance exam based on which you get a rank. According to the rank you get the course.

Mechatronics was an interesting course and an upcoming field. There are around 60 students being taught by 1 teacher. The faculty was good and the exams were according to an average student. If the exam is tough, then faculty does lenient marking so its not difficult to pass

big companies like Microsoft come with internship opportunities with a good stipend which I dont know exactly. They generally take around 10 students and give a tough coding test followed by an interview to clear

Placements begin in the 7th sem. Almost all the big companies come to the college with some good offers. On an average the companies come with around 6.5-7 Lakhs packages. The highest packages come of around 40 lakhs and lowest are around 4lakhs. The placement record is 100%.

At my time, the fees were 4 lakhs per annum. If you take the hostel it is an extra 1.5 lakhs per annum. The top few ranks get a scholarship and the placement record is 100% of the college although I didn't sit for the placement.

The college life at Manipal is extra ordinary. There is a big fest for cultural and tech events once a year. The cultural and tech clubs of the college are amazing and win quite a lot of events and competitions. There is a big library also where you can get almost all important books. The college supports the extra curricular activities and sport events in the college.

There are Ac and non Ac rooms both. you can get a single room or a double room in sharing. The food at the mess is good. The registration process for a hostel is easy and you can even select your roommate. I later shifted out to a nearby flat and found it to be cheaper than the hostel with better life quality
