Review of T A Pai Management Institute, Manipal, MAHE

Placements: For the 2024 batch MBA, 100% of placements are achieved, with the highest CTS at 32.77 LPA. The highest is 32.77 LPA, top 50 is 20+ LPA, top 100 is 18+ LPA, and top 200 is 15+ LPA. All students get internships; social internships are self-sourced, and sales internships are provided by the placement cell or can also be self-sourced, mostly with fintech companies for IPM.

Infrastructure: Textbooks are provided by the college. PPTs are provided by the faculty; computer labs, library, Wi-Fi in every classroom, a brand scan lab, and a lot of other resources such as E-Cell support are present, along with sporting facilities like a ground and a gym. One of the best, if not the best, hostels in Manipal is NIH, where IPM students stay.

Faculty: Teachers are really helpful and qualified, but it's a hit or miss with the visiting faculty as they can be either very good or really bad, however, student review is taken into consideration. It is, in my opinion, because we have the fundamental subjects of management as well as a lot of workshop-based and humanities subjects, even coding is part of the syllabus. The difficulty is moderate, and nearly everyone passes.

Other: Honestly, I chose this course because I didn't really have anything else to do; I didn't want to study B.Tech, and this seemed interesting. The best thing about my course is its practical nature, including workshops and presentations, largely due to the visiting faculty. There are a lot of events by various committees, good fests, a great alumni network, a green campus, and scholarships for the top six students.

Review of T.A Pai Management Institute.

Placements: Almost 100% of the students got placed. The highest salary package offered is 20 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is 8.5 LPA. The average salary package offered is 10 LPA. Companies like Deloitte, ICICI, Valuelabs, Ab InBev, EY, Godrej&Boyce, Citi, Tata, Tresvista, etc., visited our campus for placements. Consulting, risk advisory, associate director, etc., were roles offered to students. Almost100% of the students got an internship in companies like Deloitte, EY, KPMG, Diageo, Valuelabs, Eli Lilly, Tresvista.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are equipped with air-conditioners, projector and individual charging ports. The campus is Wi-Fi enabled. The library is opened for 24 hours. There is a Bloomberg lab, and also a student centre. Hostel facility with a single and double room. Hostels are equipped with air-conditioners. There is a 24 hours generator back up. Water facility and laundry services are available 24 hours. There is a general store, beauty parlour inside the campus. The food is provided by four different vendors serving all type of food. Night canteen facility is also available here. There are a nurse, doctor and ambulance on the campus. Sports facilities such as basketball court, volleyball court, cricket training nets, etc., are available here.

Faculty: The course is case-based. Faculty explains concepts using cases. Teaching quality is good with few teachers having more than 20 years of work experience. Almost all faculty members are PhD holders. The course curriculum is relevant, and it is continually updated to keep it industry-relevant by taking regular feedback from the industry.

Other: I wanted to get major in marketing and get a minor in operations, hence took the general PGDM course. The best thing is the case-based learning and the simulations. There is nothing to be improved in our course. Atharva is the b-school fest of Tapmi having a legacy of 32 years, and it is one the oldest B-school fests every year. Another famous event is BrandScan which is a market research event. Those these events are completely student-driven wherein sponsorship comes through associations with companies. The campus crowd is a mix of freshers and people with work experience from all parts of the country. The campus is situated on a hill in a lush green environment away from the hustle-bustle. The nearest airport is 1 hour away, i.e., Bangalore Airport and the nearest railway station is Udupi, i.e., 20 minutes away. College offers scholarships to candidates with high CAT/XAT scores. Extracurricular activities can be in the form of joining the various committees and forums in the college.
