Manipal Institute of Technology

Hi Avijeet,
Your question is incomplete, as you haven't mentioned about the stream of engineering for the placement comparison. It is quite an important factor as the Institute's placement varies according them. However, if BE in Computer Science & Engineering is considered, the comparison can be like
BITS>Manipal University>VIT>UPES>SRM>KIIT.

You can apply for the examination under the lateral entry. Your score in the exam will get you the related branch.

Yes, there is a scholarship if get yourself a rank in top 100 students then you will be awarded a scholarship and about research department is pretty good in the campus while placements my differ from year to year.

Hello Saurabh,
I am currently pursuing Aeronautical Engineering in Manipal.
I paid 2,70,000 for 1st year.
And for other years, it is Rs. 3,10,000 but it increases most of the times.
So, apporximately, it is Rs. 3,30000-3,50,000.
I hope this helps.

No, there is no branch for light engineering, but you can continue in electrical engineering.

Hello Avinash, Manipal, a private university, survives only if student interest in it remains unabated. This can happen only if they are able to place maximum students of every batch. Be rest assured that placements in Manipal are indeed good. The highest package could be Rs 10-12 lakhs while the average is around Rs 4-6 lakhs.

Manipal is costlier than VIT.

Yes, Manipal Institute of Technology organize an exam MUOET to get into the institute on merit.
