Hello Indira,

It depends on what you actually want from the college

Well there are many categories to the answer to your question

So let's start.

General life -

• As far as life outside academics is concerned this is a great college. This college literally has so many options for you to venture into.

• From student clubs to proper technical clubs like the solar Mobil project and formula Manipal (pretty cool trust me) trust me you don't want to waste your time.

• Then there is the dramatics societies which don't do much but hey you can party like anything with them.

Sports-

• The sports scene is quite interesting, we have two semi professional leagues in cricket and football (MIT Cricket league and MIT football league)
  

Food

• Now coming to the culinary options. Trust me, nothing like this place.

• Ffs, Manipal has two Mexican restaurants! You have plenty of options and 9/10 you won't be disappointed with the gastronomy in Manipal. Messes are normally better than the ones in any engineering college

Academics-

• The faculty for Mechanical and Civil is very liberal and very well endowed with knowledge but the quality of the syllabus is pathetic.

• This affects a lot of things. Education is more marks driven rather than learning. You're judged be the teachers for getting a low CGPA no matter what they tell you otherwise.

• It gets a lot worse if you're in ECE, EEE and CSE. The teachers are a nightmare over here for these branches. All the teachers focus on the amount of marks you get and hardly anyone makes sure whether you have learnt something.

• There's an overload of assignments and tests like any other engineering college. But the labs are in a pathetic stage (especially mechanical and civil) you see a pattern here? You're gonna be a theoretical not a practical
  

  People-

  
  

  • the diversity is something to behold. You're gonna learn so much from students from different states that its beautiful.

  • Everyone has their own take on life and as a multi diverse college you're sure to interact with a lot of people. Many of my friends have grown more confident as the years have progressed. The freedom this place has to offer is unmatched. But not worth paying 20 lakhs.

  
  

  Placements-

  • Placements are not that good.

  • The companies treat you like a joke, pay packages are pretty low (except for if you're in the top 10% in CSE or ECE) and funnily at the time of writing this the college is pushing people towards TCS so that they can lie to you from the outside that we have a good placement scene.

  • People on college are happy with a decent job which is wrong given that we are pressurised so much in these three years. An average job doesn't do justice.

  • Truth is that companies back out each year and hence more people are pushed towards MRCs. Teachers who have taught you for three years push you towards MRCs so that their job is done which is pretty shameful.

  • College is really un-cooperative towards placements and don't give quality of companies arriving. It's all about quantity.

  
  

  
  

  OVERALL

  Good interpersonal development and a good college life. Average teachers. Bad academics. Fucked up placements.

  
  

Hello Indira,



MIT is probably the best private institute in India. If you want to develop yourself as a full-fledged engineering professional, then MIT is the place for you. Manipal is recognized all over the world and has a high reputation among the corporates too.



It all depends on you actually... A college can only provide you with a degree.

Its only upto you as to how you will take your chances, find opportunities and make your way into the living world.

As for example - who would have thought d CEO of Microsoft and Nokia would turn out to be from MIT Manipal when there are so many IIT's and other Engineering Colleges.. ..

So.. Take examples from them. I am sure you'll get your answer.

Best of luck.
