Manipal University Jaipur is a new university. They are promoting themselves by charging such low fees, which is also due to a government agreement. It is rapidly growing and has become a well-known name among prestigious institutes in the country.

Also, if you decide to stay in a university hostel, they are incredible in fact they are comparable to a five-star hotel. Their services are really, really good. Every requirement, such as laundry, a good internet connection, and good mess food, is available here.

My friend is an alumnus of Manipal University Jaipur. Here are some snippets of her experience.

Curriculum:

My friend is from the CSE department. According to her, the curriculum is well-designed but she did have some gripes. Automata Theory and Compiler Design are clubbed together in the syllabus which does not give the scope to explore the Compiler Design part in depth. Open electives are not given much emphasis. The syllabus is vast but the topics are not discussed in detail.

Facilities:

The college has also tied to Coursera so that most courses with a credential can be accessed for free. You get one free year of Azure Cloud, and a Matlab student license is also available at the college if you want it.

Peer Group:

You will get to meet people from all over the country. The coding culture at the campus is great. You will find students working on C++ meta programs, Unity games, script kiddies, robotics, etc. There are students who have cracked GSoC, won hackathons, even went abroad to conduct research.

Faculty: Although the view regarding faculties is subjective, my friend only had good things to say about the CSE faculties.

Events: The quality of events has improved over the years. It conducts many hackathons around the academic year. Every year the institute also conducts TedXMUJ.

Internships:

• There are a lot of start-ups in Manipal, so securing an internship is not that difficult.
• Companies like Dell also conduct hackathons to select students for internships.
• There’s also IAESTE LC MUJ, a student-run function of IAESTE. Through which you can get internships in foreign countries such as Turkey, Germany, Poland, etc.

Placements: The average salary package was 5.3 LPA while the highest recorded CTC was 42 LPA.

MS Opportunities: There are many students from the institute doing their MS from institutes like Cornell, University of Texas, Carnegie Mellon, and others.

The hostel facility is great and Manipal as a city is quite vibrant. You will definitely have a good time at the institute.

One of my cousins studied BBA at Manipal. According to him, you have to make yourself familiar with the paper pattern. It is suggested that you complete BA, BSc, or B.Com from any decent university and then opt for an MBA.

• When it comes to cracking the BBA entrance exam, it is not quite difficult. 
• The competition is also very low because the number of candidates is less, which can play as an advantage for you. 
• If you are good at the basics, you should be able to crack the exam.

The number of students applying will also be less, as it is a private university. You should stick to the basics and be confident. You will definitely clear the exam within the first attempt then.

As far as Computer Science Engineering is concerned, at Manipal University, it has the second-highest placements after the Mechanical department. CSE students receive the highest package with the greatest number of offers.

Many popular companies like IBM, Microsoft, Amazon are known to recruit students from the computer science engineering department. The highest package offered is about INR 42 lakhs per annum with an average package of INR 6.2 lakhs per annum.

Additionally, it is worth noting that among all departments, students from this department are the first to get placed, ideally, in the 7th semester itself.
