College life at this college is very good.
Placements: The architecture course doesn't have any placements, so you must search for placements on your own. The training and placement cell might help. Batchmates got placed in various firms all over the country. Depending on performance, few students who joined as interns continued as junior architects.
Infrastructure: We share the same hostels with multiple colleges on the MIT campus, but all hostels are well-constructed. They are lively, and there are several student centres. The college is currently a part of the engineering department's building, but it will be soon shifted to its dedicated building.
Faculty: The syllabus of 2014 is different from what is followed currently. Students are not that industry-ready, but it is not necessarily specific to MSAP. Most of the teachers are helpful.
Other: We have only one fest named Opus and a sports event named Seige. More importance is given to academics here.

Our college provides good faculty members and infrastructure.
Placements: Since it's an architecture college, students usually opt to work under other firms. But in Manipal School of Architecture and Planning, you get a good experience and also with great faculty members and seniors. It makes it easier. Most of the alumni have their firms in large cities while others work for big firms.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is very good. They are going to shift to another building after a few years. Hostels are very spacious and have all the facilities required, and hygienic food is served in the mess. The campus also has some public gathering places to enjoy nature.
Faculty: The course curriculum is as prescribed by the council of architecture. Faculty members are well experienced and have good knowledge about the work. Most of the faculty members are holding PhDs in their respective subjects and are highly knowledgeable. They have a vast idea about most of the topics.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in planning.

You have the key, do whatever you want with that.
Placements: There are no placements opportunities provided by the institution for architecture. However, students from our college have never failed to get into a good practice after college or during the course of the 1-year internship. Manipalites have a better chance of getting placed in practice in Bangalore due to its proximity to the college. There are students who try hard to get into cities like Mumbai or Ahmedabad, but the practices in these cities always give first preference to the students studying in the same city. But, this doesn't stop students from getting into top firms of India as there are alumni who are working for Pritzker award winner B V Doshi and highly famed architect Hafeez Contractor.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are 10m x 10m in size with a height of up to 7m. These working studios are large enough to offer convenient working spaces for every individual. Apart from that, there are AC seminar halls, jury halls and material laboratories. The architecture department is spacious enough to cater to every student's experimentation, and there are no restrictions as such. The whole building is a canvas to students.
Faculty: At the current stage of our college, there are many inexperienced faculty members and few experienced ones. Most of the experienced ones are pretty lazy and try to take up the shortest path method as many times as possible. The junior faculty are full of enthusiasm, but they lack the knowledge to cater to the current world of architecture. To make up with this, the institution (after plenty of experimentation with students, classes and curriculum) has a completely developed curriculum where learning happens at an enormous and zealous way as compared to our time.
Other: There is one fest conducted in every semester. One is a college fest by the title 'Opus', where architecture workshops are organised, and students take part in various interactive competitions ranging from essay writing to potpourri. The second fest 'Utsav', which is the university one, where all the institutions of Manipal compete against each other. Apart from that, there are sports competitions organised around the year.

Great infrastructure, satisfying teaching quality!
Placements: In the course of architecture, there are no placements as such. In the fifth year of your academics, you go for an internship (which is for the entire year). The college has tie ups with more than 200 firms and you apply to the ones of your choice and continue your 1 year internship with them thereafter. After getting your degree, you have to apply for jobs in different firms or start as an entrepreneur if you want your own firm right away. Architecture firms don't come to a college to hire employees. It does't work like the engineering courses.
Infrastructure: You get good quality drafting tables and good audio-visual systems in classrooms. Classes are big enough to accommodate 40 students (4 sections consisting 40 each). The only thing missing in classrooms are ACs, but its easy to get used to it as the rooms are comfortable enough. You get cold water facilities right next to the classrooms. Talking in a larger scale, Manipal has a great library right next to the architecture block, good sports facilities inside the campus and an excellent sports arena (called Marena), and free health check ups and referrals for manipal students with ambulance service in all hostels at KMC (the medical college of Manipal). Overall, campus hostels and facilities are above par level.
Faculty: Most of the teachers are very helpful, qualified, knowledgeable and most importantly (important for architecture students) approachable. Students have to go through an online faculty report at the end of every semester, scoring every faculty member of his/her class at different aspects. There are 4 teachers for 1 section in the main design subject (that's 1 teacher per 10 students), and it all the teachers give you their inputs into your work. You get good exposure into how the industry works through certain site visits, factory visits, lectures and seminars by guests, etc. Which really help in knowing how things work out.
Other: The campus is known as one of the best in India, and it truly is. The year is filled with fests, events, and the architecture department has its own fest as well. There are clubs which work on offering you international scholarships and internships as well.

3Placements5Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money
University with a great infrastructure and learned faculty.
Placements: As of the end of 2016, there wasn't any placement drive conducted. Students applied for various firms on their own (working portfolio is taken into consideration) or continued in the firm they were working in, in the 9th and 10th semester internships. The highest starting salary (for jobs in India) was Rs. 25,000 pm while the lowest was Rs. 12,000 pm. All students join the new firm as junior architects and are usually given the responsibility of handling other interns in the firm, handling site work, helping in the designing process, specification and estimation work, handling clients, drafting the drawings, doing the 3D work, among others. The smaller the firm, more the responsibility on the junior architect. Larger firms have work specific work designated for specific people; they have a defined hierarchy.
Infrastructure: All the colleges of Manipal University have a great infrastructure. The studios are huge and well-lit, with each student having their own A0 - A1 size desk. The seminar halls are air-conditioned and have new seats. The bathrooms are close by and well-maintained. The recently renovated CAD lab has around 40 computers with 6 plotters for printing the bigger AO-A1 sheets. The college and hostel WiFi is good with each student getting 30GB data each month. Marena, a world class sporting facility, is where all the students go for their workouts. The MIT Campus has a functioning swimming pool. MIT Cafeteria has one of the best-tasting food in Manipal. There are 21 huge hostels in MIT Campus alone and many more are underway. The mess food served is also good. MIT Campus has a central food court with about 6 to 7 messes. One mess each for a group of hostels. In the MIT campus itself, there are the a basketball court, football ground, and a ground for field and track events on Sports Day.
Faculty: Qualified and knowledgeable faculty who are passionate about teaching headed by a director who is eager to bring about change in the college for good. Architecture is a design-based subject which requires a hands-on approach while teaching and also encourages students to think freely and outside the box. A lot of research and on site case study goes on into every semester's Architectural Design project. For AD, the student-teacher ratio is 10:1 while the student-teacher ratio for theory subjects is 40:1.
