What is the typical life of a student at TAPMI, Manipal?

The curriculum at TAPMI is extremely busy. The number of quizzes, projects, assignments, and committee work is enormous. Additionally, due dates are sacred. If you are a fresher, you go through a lot of change in terms of the development of corporate culture, and it's a pretty important lesson for an MBA graduate to learn. It can be challenging at times, but it is extremely vital. Even if you have worked, you put in more effort than usual (or you're forced to) and work to advance your management and technical skills. 

You are given a lot of rigour, prepared to accept responsibility, and work in teams to complete some extraordinarily difficult jobs. A normal day begins at 8 am with classes that may begin at 8:30 am and end as late as 8:15 pm, with significant breaks in between; tests, assignments, and projects take up your afternoon. It would be a lot busier if you were on a committee or if it was placement season.

The good news is that Manipal is a great place to live and that's where you spend your evenings (at least some of them). In the midst of rural Udupi, it is a metropolitan metropolis with everything from 5-star hotels and bars to beaches and shopping centers. People party hard because alcohol is inexpensive, and those who work the hardest are also the hardest party animals!

Motor vehicles are allowed for both juniors and seniors and you must be on campus by 11:30 p.m. If you work till two or three in the morning to finish any unfinished business, the Night Canteen will save the day. However, at the end of the day, you know that you are preparing yourself for the corporate world (the placements are excellent), and that motivates you.
