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.

Good College and Infrastructure.
Placements: The number of students placed is 60% of students, and the highest package is 7 LPA, while the lowest is 2 LPA. Top recruitment is from sales companies. The percentage of people getting internships is very low, and roles offered depend on the company that comes.
Infrastructure: The faculty is very good and nice, and they are very well-educated and knowledgeable. They explain in a very good manner. The infrastructure is also average, well-designed, and good for the students. However, a hostel isn't present for this, and meals are good in the canteen.
Faculty: The teachers are helpful for the first two years; later, students are needed to study on their own. They are knowledgeable. This course is good and relevant and good to students. The difficulty depends on how students study and read.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is very good with Bloomberg labs. Classrooms are air-conditioned and well-equipped with projectors and whiteboards. The library at TAPMI is the 2nd largest in Karnataka with state-of-the-art facilities. The hostel is decent with air-conditioned rooms and attached bathrooms, and cleaning is done on alternative days. Overall the hostel is quite well-maintained. TAPMI hosts a 50-day long sports tournament and has 8 games. It has ground as well as several indoor facilities to promote sports.
Faculty: Teaching quality is decent, and the teachers are helpful in clearing doubts. The course curriculum is average, but students are groomed and given training through guest lectures and workshops. However, it needs improvement.
Other: I have chosen this course because this course is my best option post CAT, and also our seniors recommended it. I enjoyed the campus life and made new friends here. Faculty members here need to be a little more student-friendly and cooperative, and management needs to be less strict and ease restrictions on the students. It has its annual fests like Atharva and several other events like BrandScan, Meraki, QoTB and Bloomberg Championship that helps in overall development.
