Remarks :
Basically, I have not applied for any other colleges instead of Manipal Institute of Technology because it is one of the best Engineering Colleges in North-Eastern India and it has set a goal to be a world-class technical institution fostering innovation, leadership and entrepreneurial spirit. The mission of our college is to educate students professionally to face social challenges by providing a healthy learning environment grounded well in the principles of engineering, promoting creativity and nurturing teamwork. Every programme offered by MIT Manipal has different eligibility criteria, these depend on the field as well as the level of the programme. For admission in Btech Programmes candidates must have completed 12th standard or equivalent with Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, English and Chemistry/Biology with a 50% score and the candidates also have to quality the Manipal Entrance Test(MET).
Course Curriculum Overview :
I chose to study Information Technology because it focuses on the application of computers and computer software to manage information systems to meet the needs of industry and government. The development, management, and maintenance of Information Technology systems are key competitive factors that are essential for business success in today's world. Our Information Technology department has a student to faculty ratio of 24:1. The teachers have huge experience in the field of teaching and they are always helpful and supportive. Each department has a sufficient number of faculty members. They are eager to solve any doubts that students come up with and a mentor has been assigned to every 20 students in our department, who solves each and every problem that students face whether it is related to academics or non-academics.
Internships Opportunities :
Internships are educational and career development opportunities, providing practical experience in a field of discipline. Students can apply for off-campus internships in big companies like Microsoft and Google, and startups like Paytm, Skylabs, Ola, etc. Although getting an internship in a good company is quite competitive as you have to have a strong academic background. But you can easily get internships in startups or small companies. Generally, most of the internships are unpaid and some of them are paid, students can apply for both paid and unpaid internships.
Placement Experience :
Students especially become eligible for campus placements from the 6th or 7th semester. They are a lot of big companies that come to our college during the campus placements. Amazon, Delloite, Tata, Fiat, Bosch, Hyundai, Ather Energy, Accenture, Tcs, Royal Enfield, HP, etc. Most of these companies hire for marketing and sales roles, however, tech companies come for market-specific roles. The highest package offered is 12 lakhs per annum by HP and the average package offered by all the companies is 4.33 lakhs per annum. According to the university reports, approximately 80-85% of the students are successful in getting placements.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The total 4 years fees for my Information Technology course is about INR 3.85 lakhs and there was no fees hike for the past four years. The college charges less than 4 lakhs for each and every undergraduate course, which makes it quite affordable for the students to pay their fees. A few scholarships are also offered by the institute which can be found on their web portal however they are extremely competitive and perfect for deserving candidates. A significant number of students take benefits from the educational loans provided by the banks and the ICICI Bank is affiliated with most of the institute's expenses. Almost all major banks provide a cover of the complete educational expenses at a decent rate of interest. Notable mentions are the State Bank of India, Canara Bank and the ICICI Bank.
Campus Life :
The college firmly believes that to enhance the skills of our students, they must be provided with opportunities to explore their creativity. Various cultural programmes are organised several times during the year to encourage creative pursuits and nurture talent. Students form teams and share responsibility for organising the events. The central library of the Manipal Institute of Technology(MIT) is in the heart of the institution and is therefore accessible to students at all times. The three-storey library is fully air-conditioned and occupies a total area of about 70000 sqft and can accommodate 800 users at a time. There are more than 1.5 lakh books, journals, magazines, DVDs and all resources, available for the use of faculty and students. The college has a large student community involved in every activity that is possible to have. From gaming to astronomy dramatics to fine arts, every kind of student group is available on the campus.
