Manipal Institute of Technology (MAHE).
Placements: See, as I’m in the first year, I don’t know much about the placements. The number of students in the fourth year is currently less, so the placements will be 100% this year. If we talk about the package and all, they say they are getting about 8 Lacs as a median package.
Infrastructure: The hostel facility is good here, as the mess is very different from the other college messes. Usually, in other hostels, there will be non-veg like twice a month or thrice a month, but here in Manipal, you get non-veg thrice a week and the food is also healthy. It’s not like the food is unhealthy and all.
Faculty: The faculty here is good. The teachers here teach well. The labs and all, they do it very carefully. The examination system over here is good and well. Like, it’s basically good for the students, as the students can’t cheat in the examinations, so they would have to study hard to get good grades.

Placements: From the 6th semester, students are eligible for college placements. Our college provides paid internships, placement training, GD, communication training, and soft skills to help students. Siddharth, Microsoft, Indian Smart, and Pizza Hut provide development training with industrial experience and knowledge. It helps to increase the quality and efficiency of students.
Infrastructure: The annual fest named Effervescence is held between October and November. It has many memories to offer. The technical fest named Aparoksha is held in January. There is a sports fest named Asmita, which is held around March and April. The library has a good amount of books to offer. The library is a bit small. Campus life is a bit moderate. There are not many individual grounds for sports inside the campus.
Faculty: I think our faculty members. They are the best. They support us any time. The relationship between the faculty is nice. They keep their attention on every student. I like Supriya mam because the way she takes classes and the way she helps students is very nice. I am in my first year so in the 2024 batch, SPPU has changed the pattern so we don't have to give semester exams. We will give directly end-semester exams of 70 marks and other marks are in the teachers' hands.
