Coding Culture: MIT has a vibrant coding scene with clubs like ACM Manipal, IECSE, MIST, and LUG. They host lots of coding competitions and hackathons like Microsoft Code Fun Do and AngelHack. Plus, many startups have kicked off right from the campus.
Projects: Student projects like Parikshit (satellite team), MRM (Mars Rover), RoboManipal, AeroMIT, and SolarMobil are doing great and are considered among the world's top university teams.
Placements: Placements are on the rise, with big names like Amazon, Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, Dell, and Seagate recruiting from the campus.
Higher Studies: You'll find MIT alumni at top universities like MIT Boston, Harvard, UCLA, and Stanford. Manipal also has coaching centers for GRE/GMAT prep.
Alumni: MIT boasts successful alumni like Satya Nadella and Rajeev Suri.
Branch Strength: The first-year branch strength is around 2000, which is a good size.
No Management Quota: MIT primarily admits students based on merit (95%), with a small NRI quota (5%), ensuring a strong peer group.

So, if you're aiming for a well-rounded engineering education, MIT Manipal is definitely a solid choice.
