Manipal - The student town.
Placements: My course is bachelors as well as masters, and good firms send in applications for placements. Student experience during their internship, and mostly get placed depending on their CGPA. Mostly firms are from Bangalore, Hyderabad, and other cities too.
Infrastructure: We have our own campus designed in a way that considers student and staff. College has an amazing view. There is a lot of open space within campus. Even classes are well designed, keeping in mind sustainability. We do have labs, Wi-Fi, and printing area for our preparations as well as allotted classes course-wise. Library is also there. We do have canteen and faculty lounge for girls on our campus.
Faculty: We have good and qualified professors in college for all the courses. We have practical exams starting from 6 hours then as semester passes be it's increased to 18 hours. There are other theory written papers that also carry credit in order to pass the semester.
Other: It's interesting, and it's a creative field. We do have events every semester for a week, and the student body is majorly involved in preparations and faculty support too. We do have inter-college events and competitions held throughout.

Good infrastructure, no AC classrooms and some great faculty members every semester.
Placements: I'm not sure about the recruiting as a second-year student. They do mention a lot of placements and internship chances on their website and in their marketing campaigns. But I am not quite sure about this. As a first-year student, they had asked us to go for a summer internship of our choice and submit the necessary documents afterwards to prove the same.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is, in fact, great but it takes a lot of time to adhere to the path and accesses. The feeling intends to get higher every year. However, there is no AC facility in any of the classrooms except for the CAD labs. It is hard to survive during the summer.
Faculty: The majority faculty members are excellently hire with great communication skills and fair mindedness. The end semester exams are of a total 12 hours drawing/ drafting, 2 day viva and 2 day of theory written exam. The curriculum is great except for some of the faculty are not given beforehand information on what has already been taught and looked at.
