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.

My review of this college.
Placements: It has very good placement opportunities. There is a dedicated placement cell, which works 24x7 for the placement opportunities for students. With close to 100 countries visiting the campus, we can expect our dream company to be there for notable ones being Microsoft offering a package of 16 LPA. Google offered a package of 14 LPA. L&T offers a package of 3.8 LPA. ABB offered a package of 5 LPA. Hero MotoCorp offered a package of 4.8 LPA. Yamaha Motor and R&D offered a package of 5 LPA. Toyota offered a package of 3.8 LPA. The starting salary package is offered for 6 months then revision of compensation based on performance. TCS offered a package of 3.37 LPA. IBM offered a package of 3.84 LPA, etc.
Infrastructure: The fee of the hostel is 1.8 LPA which includes the mess fees also. Buildings are awesome and the university is fully air-conditioned. Rooms are very good. There are almost all the facilities on the campus.
Faculty: All faculty members are specialised in their subjects. They are always ready to offer help to students. Most of our college teachers are doctorates. Sometimes guest faculty members also visit and teach us. There is interaction with teachers. They clear our doubts about my course, which helps us a lot. All faculty members are very supportive. In 1st three semesters, we have to provide some practical files or so-called projects that we need to prepare after 4th semester. We needed to prepare and give examinations for 100 marks where we are habitual of giving only 60 marks in the first three semesters. The course curriculum is very well-designed. The course curriculum is balanced between academics. Seminars and conferences are organised on our campus. There is a balance of industry exposure as well as a focus on academics. The course is designed for 2 years and final exams are held twice a year. My specialisation is in finance.
