Review of Manipal College of Dental Sciences, Manipal, Manipal Academy of Higher Education.

Placements: Good placements are there in our college. Around 50% of students got placed. It offers an excellent internship program with very good patient inflow. There are well-maintained and high-end equipment. The Phantom Head Lab helps mimic a real patient. It helps a lot to develop a very good skillset.

Infrastructure: We have a working library with an air-conditioned room. It is well-maintained for a very efficient work and study environment. We have various messes and canteens for delicious food. There is a sports arena and workout arena with a lot of equipment, running tracts, table tennis courts, badminton courts, and many playgrounds and courts for other outdoor activities.

Faculty: Teachers are good and knowledgeable with a good open mind. There is a very dynamic student-teacher relationship. I love the teaching staff. They are passionate and dedicated professionals. The course doesn't make us ready for the industry. The pass percentage is 50%.

Other: I really like dentistry. It's a little bit of art and medicine in combination which needs an amazing skill set and good knowledge. A lot of culture and inter-college festivals happen which ensures a good balance for students.

Manipal college of dental sciences and MAHE campus review.

Placements: There are no placements from the college side, but people eventually get into decent clinics and start earning INR 40k per month at the start. Most of the people have their own private practise run by their family, so they don't have to worry about the placements.

Infrastructure: It has great amenities; the hostels are amazing and well painted; the Wi-Fi is strong and relatively fast. The library is amazing; it has tons of books, research papers, and a lot of research guides. You can access the library virtually through the library portal.

Faculty: The faculty here is top-notch and really passionate about their respective fields. It also helps that these faculty members are experts in their field and are very famous among the research community as well. They also push the students to learn better in the clinics.

Other: There are a lot fests happening on campus nearly every month, as many colleges here like to celebrate their fests .

It is the best dental college in India.

Placements: Students leave the college with excellent skills and strong in theory to join dental clinics straight out of bachelor's and many rank top 500 in post-graduate exams. The top recruitments would be by Clove Dental clinic. Around 100% of students get internships. Students also easily get placed abroad for DDS.

Infrastructure: It provides a beautiful infrastructure with air conditioning, and free Wi-Fi is enabled. There is a large health sciences library on the campus with unlimited resources for reading and research. Hostels are very comfortable and it is clean. The mess has a variety of food and is hygienic with a proper disposal system in place.

Faculty: Teachers are some of the best researchers in India and are excellent at their job. The curriculum prepares students for the real thing with a lot of practice. Public dental camps are organised every day to train students as well as help the communities around Manipal. Exams are fairly difficult. The pass percentage is 94%.

Other: I opted for this course because of my passion for improving people's quality of life, and the best part is that as well. The college allows students to be well-rounded individuals by allowing participation in sports, college fests, university fests, quizzes, clubs, etc., apart from academics.

Great college with great opportunities. Infrastructure is amazing.

Placements: There are 100 seats for BDS in Manipal University (MCODS Manipal). During the internship period (5th year), 4 students are selected for Boston Student Exchange Programme which is a great opportunity. Being the 2nd best dental college, after Maulana Azaad in India, it provides you great opportunities to grow overall.

Infrastructure: The library and infrastructure is amazing where you can actually enjoy studying. Wi-Fi is in every part of the campus. The hostel is pretty chill and safe at the same time. Mess food is of good quality, although one might get bored. There are events which happen in our college for sports as well as other activities.

Faculty: Most of the teachers we have are writers of the books that we study, so no doubt about their knowledge. They help you in every possible way. They also take tests time to time to make sure you're learning. Although some subjects you have to study regularly on your own. Practical knowledge is great too.

Other: I am currently in 2nd year BDS I chose this course because I wanted to be a doctor, but with a little less stress in life. Although now I think that dentistry is no cakewalk. The practical work is pretty tough if you have to achieve perfection. This course takes a lot of time and patience, as you have to develop your handwork in it. A lot of fests and events happen in manipal. Our college has HUES- a cultural event, and DENTATHALON- sports event, the preparation of which starts a month before. Both are actually really fun. Apart from college events, we have concerts and other events within the campus. It is great place overall if you want to do your best in career as well as have fun in college.

Review of Manipal College of Dental Science, Manipal.

Placements: There is no placement as such. Usually, students go for private practice, or others opt for higher studies in India or abroad. There is no package salary offered in the course. Our college provides internships, so it is like 100%.

Infrastructure: The college is well-equipped with the latest technologies in the curriculum. Latest facilities and infrastructure are quite good in every department. The hostel is quite good, but the food is not that good. Other than that, everything is good.

Faculty: Teachers are qualified, knowledgeable and very helpful. Teaching quality is very good. The course curriculum is relevant, but it also has a few things which are not important in the course. I don't have an idea whether it make students industry-ready.

Manipal is an emotion. Come here and experience it.

Placements: Placements aren't there in medical courses but college will definitely get your ready for anything you're going to attempt in the future. The infrastructures available and curriculum taught will definitely be applicable in the real world scenario. It's great.

Infrastructure: Manipal does have state of the art facilities be it the academic side or the fun side. Free Wi-Fi from ion is available in all rooms. Labs are topnotch and upgraded. The health Science library is arguably the best among all the Indian colleges. Marena, the sports centre has everything you'll need.

Faculty: We really do have some of the most genuine teachers. There are ups and downs. But it's great overall. There are many departments, with experienced faculty members who will help you if you're ready to learn. Also they do concentrate on the students falling behind so don't be afraid. Also seniors are always there.

Other: Just come here and experience it once if you're skeptical about enrolling.
