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.

The general campus life at IMT Ghaziabad is pretty hectic for first-year students. Right after you join, the Personality Development Program is conducted by the seniors. After this, the committee selection process begins. College life is extremely rigorous and includes fest management, mess, seniors placements, and internships. You have to manage and prioritize all such activities altogether. You learn to manage your time, face tight deadlines, and maintain your emotional stability throughout.

Some other aspects of life at IMT Ghaziabad are

• Placements: IMT Ghaziabad placements are known to be the best in the Marketing sector. While many think that only freshers or people with less experience can get Marketing roles, it’s not true. It completely depends on the company offering the role. IMT provides you with lots of opportunities in sales and a few roles in core marketing, media & advertising, and digital marketing. IMT Ghaziabad is the best to kickstart a career in Marketing as it offers the best opportunities and has a strong alumni network.
• Fees: IMT Ghaziabad fee structure for PGDM, PGDM Marketing, PGDM Banking, and Financial Services and PGDM Finance is INR 19.38 lakhs.
• Hostel: IMT Ghaziabad has two hostels, one inside the campus and the other CDL, 4 km by walking distance. You can choose to stay at either during the first year but in the second year, you have to stay at the on-campus hostel only. CDL has much more freedom and better amenities like Air Conditioned rooms.
• Food: IMT Ghaziabad’s mess food is managed by the mess committee which is run by the students themselves. The quality of food is good but once in a while students get bored and ask for a change of the menu. The CDL students can come to the campus mess for the food.
• Prospects: Today the corporate world requires more from MBA graduates rather than specialization in certain fields. IT and Services are doing fairly well and are expected to do so in the future without much change. Analytics is in great demand and will continue to be in demand for at least 5-7 years 

The Indian market has been witnessing an increase in demand for jobs where MBA graduates have a great variety to choose from.
