There are good hangout spots around the campus
Food court is great, if you want convience Food court 1 is a better option, If you're fine with walking a bit long I'd recommend Food Court 2 as they're food taste better comparatively

Dislikes

Campus could have been better, it's kinda conjusted

Course Curriculum Overview:

The Curriculum of the course is decent just like any other college in India but I think you got an advantage in this college that there's only 25% theory and 75% practicals, you don't have any useless subjects like language. Talking about how it prepares us for real world applications, it does nothing really can't blame the college, it is like this everywhere, The industry keeps updating but the teaching methods are ancient.

The best learning place for an extrovert. Probably the only college with so many practical classes which i really liked.
The staff is really helpful and understanding and are always there for you.

Dislikes

I have no complains but my friends found it not worth the money.
The placement was very average, but i think other colleges had worse.

Placement Experience:

The PG students get a lot of companies and their average package is 6 LPA i believe. Last year the highest package was 20 LPA a girl got from Vedantu during college placements. Placements apparently have taken a toll after covid. For UG students there are less opportunities and the average package for us was 3.5 LPA

MIC; A place which brings you out of your shells.

4.8Helpful

Manipal Institute of Communication is an institute that brings out the best in a student, academically as well as extra-curricularly. The college opened up another side of mine that I've never explore before.
Another side of me being the socially active side of mine in as many cultural events as possible. That is another aspect of MIC that excites the students, which is the fact that there is inclusivity for everyone in the institute.

Dislikes

One will come across conflicts of interest as there will be differences in opinions between the students as well as the students and the faculty in MIC as does any other institution.
College changes a lot of people. The seniors' advice to the juniors was to find a few real companions and keep them close. At the same time, be careful as to who you keep close as it can very well backfire at you

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course which is Media and Communication is very relevant, in fact, one of the most relevant course for studying and applying in today's world. In the digital era that we live in, everything is bound by the media. Media is the fourth estate of our democracy and it is the mediator between the lawmakers and the public, which makes the media very important as well as responsible. Some of the aspects of the curriculum that persuaded me to choose this course we're Advertising, Marketing, PR, Film studies and Photography. The curriculum is very lenient in the sense that it is well-researched and up to date so that the students get the best of information in the particular subject. It also prepared the students well for real-world applications as we get to do a lot of practical work as part of the course. The timing of the exams are also very lenient towards the comfortability of the student as they have enough time to revise their chapters and also clear doubts, if any, to the faculty.

Manipal Institute of Communication Review

3.8Helpful

Placement Experience:

Placements are good only if you're interested in AD&PR, graphic design, and videography but not good if you're interested in journalism. The salary packages ranged from 2 to 5 LPA. I didn't get placed because of the unavailability of jobs that interested me during the college placements.

Internship Provided by The Institute

4.8Helpful

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements towards the final semester of their course. Currently, I have only been using the help of my faculty for internship opportunities, since I am not looking for placements. But they have connections with big names in the communication sector, and they often have personalities coming in to give talks and interact with the students. A great number of students opt for placements and approximately 90% of them do end up getting posted at really good companies. Others choose to continue with higher education. My plan after receiving my degree would be to take up a diploma in literature in the UK, while simultaneously finding myself a position at a good publishing house there.

My college experience

2.3Helpful

Placement Experience:

From my seniors, I hear that 20/30 % of students from our college get placed. But now being in my final sem I know the reality. For covid and lockdown, the placement sector has been badly hit. Only a handful of companies came this year (5/6 companies). 4/5 people from our batch are placed but no placement for the big chunk of people. From 5th sem students become eligible for placements but in 5th sem, no company came to our college for placement this year. Only in the 6th sem, the placement cell started. Companies that visited till now ( some of them came to take interns and didn't offer full-time jobs) 1) Clevertize, 2) Social Panga, 3) Robert Bosch GmbH, 4) Saatchi & Saatchi, 5) Publicis, 6)PR Pundit, 7) McKinsey, 8) Edsol Edtech, 9) Momo Media, 10) MSL, 11) Genesis BC, Offers: 1.5-3 LPA (average). I plan to send CVs personally to companies through LINKEDIN and other job search platforms because the college hasn't provided us with good placement offers as claimed.

Rrishika Kakoty's Review On Manipal Institute Of Communication - [MIC], Manipal

3.7Helpful

Remarks:

Media and Communication was a course which has a vast approach in the field of Media. The course I opted for had subjects like Journalism (in all the fields like broadcast, newspaper, radio) RJ in Radio, Filmmaking, PR and Marketing, Foreign Languages and on the last year final semester students were supposed to take up a specialisation course according to their choice. It seemed to be interesting and it would help me channalise my thoughts about my future after 3 years of graduation. For me, apart from this, the place played a huge role while selecting the college. Manipal is a small stundent town which is situated in the costal part of Karnataka, India. It is consist of students from all around the world which was a good opportunity of cultural exchange.

Remarks:

Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) is a reputed university in the college circuits and MIC in particular is ranked one of the top 5 media colleges India. MIC offers a variety of different specializations for students wanting to go onto varying sectors of the Media industry and this was one of the main attractions for me.
