Review of master's in digital marketing at Manipal.

Placements: There are very few students who got placed by campus placements. Most students searched using resources like LinkedIn and previous work experiences. A couple of students were placed from the campus interview. The assistance for the same was provided and the faculty did put in the effort.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and the hostels are better than international standards. The mess food is also great, but repetitive at times. The medical facilities are also great. We were allowed to get RTPCR done multiple times free of cost. Both our hostels are beautiful, one being very homey and the other being a modern luxury hotel.

Faculty: Teachers in our college are experienced and industry professionals. But we had quite a few classes online. So we couldn't make use of the facilities available. The exams are taken on tablets. We were also encouraged to take notes and pdfs on iPads and laptops. We cut the use of paper making our course pretty much paperless.

Other: The exposure and the crowd are amazing. Manipal is know for its fest, sadly couldn't experience them due to covid.
