A semester-wise view of the syllabus is discussed below. 

Semester-1: 

This is the general semester, where you have to study subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Engineering Drawing, Computer Programming language, etc along with labs and tutorials.

Semester-2:

In this semester you study advanced versions of subjects like Physics, Maths, Chemistry, Ecology, etc along with labs and tutorials.

Semester-3:

• By the 3rd semester, you get into the department and then you get to study your branch-related subjects.
• In this semester the courses are Data Structures, Discrete Mathematics, Electronics Signal Processing, and other IT-related subjects.

Semester-4:

• There will be labs and tutorials related to the courses in the 4th semester.

Semester-5:

Here you learn important courses like Operating Systems, Computer Networking, Cryptography, and Object-oriented modeling, and computer graphics.

Semester-6:

• Also by the end of the 6th sem, you are allotted the mini-project.

Semester-7: 

• In this Sem, you get to opt for electives.1 open elective and 1 professional elective choice. And other subjects like Digital Image processing, Professional Ethics, Service-oriented software Engg are taught.
• These subjects are very easy and quite scoring. But you will need to work a lot on the project. 

Semester-8:

• In this semester, the department offers 1 open elective and 2 professional electives
• Apart from these, the courses are Privacy-preserving Data publishing, Research Trends in IT.

You should start coding and learning the basics of programming languages on your own. This will help you get prepared for internships.

During your years in MNNIT, I would advise you to maintain good pointers and pay attention to coding and competitive programming. Score well in subjects and try to focus more on highlighted courses because companies ask questions from those courses. Also, make good projects.
