Entrance Preview

I cleared NATA with a 16th rank in karnataka state CET for architecture. All india rank of manipal is pretty high also. I heard manipal is a nice place to party.

Internships Opportunities

No it does not, internships are to be secured by application of students, stipend very low like 0 to 10k month max. Internship experience is very diverse.

Placement Experience

1.5

Placement and jobs in architecture are saturating in all the mega cities due to too much inflow, market situations, etc. But in the rural underdeveloped areas have good scope for legacy but comes at the cost of lower standards of living and comfort, causing very few who practice after graduation.

Campus Life

Gender ratio is rarely decent due to effective means of marketing for all free from gender bias. diversity is the same case. Sports facility is commendable but again comes at a prise if your willing to pay.

Exam Structure

Exams, tests and assignments are always pouring in, leaving no time for social activity or hobbies. Highly hectic and stressful course, waiting to be done with it and take my shot at life as it comes, because struggling like this and to not be job secured is standing on thin ice.

Likes

Making it compulsory to do projects from first year onwards and emphasizing on publishing papers which are good for longer run
Skill labs is fun and useful (in general for most branches)
No ragging, students are not discriminatory and are helpful

Dislikes

Though projects are good, at times it becomes difficult to manage so many at the same time
During CIE's, there are 2 exams on one day which makes it tough
Some teachers dont follow marks breakdown and give marks as they feel. Especially for lab manuals.. they dont check the manual and put random marks

Course Curriculum Overview:

Curriculum is a mix of both Computer Science and AIML which is increasingly relevant in today's world. Second year: Subjects like Mathematics for AIML, Data Structures, Stats for Data Science, Computer Networks, Third year: DBMS, ANN, ML operations Some other elevtives are also available and courses like Universal Human Values, POME, EIPR etc. Honestly, POME, EIPR, UHV should have less course credits and probably MCQ type exams (like IC and Yoga in first year). Curriculum is good and updating for applications helped along with projects. Exams are generally once in a month, 1.5 - 2 units for each subject each exam. Lab exams at the very end before CIE marks finalization. Then 2 weeks gap for Lab SEE, then 1 week gap and actual SEE's.

Likes

best faculty teachers with 100% placements
Sports, clubs ,research projects or cultural evevts
beautiful scenery , modern facilities or a vibrant student life

Dislikes

Attendance policies or restrictive campus rule
lack of clubs , events or sports facilities
difficult exams , assignments or unrealistic deadlines

Placement Experience:

KSIT has an average placement rate of 70%-85% depending on the branch . CSE,ISE and ECE branches have higher placements while mechanical and civil have fewer opportunities in IT sector . Average package is about 4-6LPA . KSIT attracts many IT based recruitiers with some core companies for non -IT branches . It also provides pre-placement training, coding boot cams, aptitude tests and soft skills development . Alumni network is moderate, but students need off-campus efforts for high paying jobs

One of the best colleges or universities for B Tech and pocket friendly

Likes

The campus is very good , it is peaceful , it has the best environment for a student to pursue his studies
The faculties are highly qualified , most of the faculties (lecturers) are PHD holders. They've got plenty of experience to share their knowledge with the students
We've got plenty of opportunities to improve our skills , lecturers gives us more space to solve our doubts.

Dislikes

For a B-tech college it is new , we are still expecting the campus placements
The campus is a bit underrated for a B-tech college

Placement Experience:

The College was there for more than 10 years , but there was only Post graduate courses available , like M-tech , Msc , etc. The College for B-tech has started just before 2 years , there are no batches which has been output till now. The students are also waiting to see the batches to get output and see the placements taking place. As a student I am also eager about the campus placements.

Pretty decent college

Some other colleges I applied to are NIFT, MIT Pune and Soft Pune. My admission was confirmed for all three however after speaking to alumni from all 4, I decided that MSAP was the best fit for me. I chose this college over NIFT as NIFT was offering me admission for b.des textile design and I was not interested in perusing that course. The admission process for MSAP consists of an entrance exam, portfolio and statement of purpose and personal interview....Read More

Maybe Manipal,maybe not.

I applied to other colleges in kerala. Cat,trivandrum and avani,calicut. Both were much more amazing than MSAP comparing the infrastructure,college aesthetics,architecture vibes and as a malayali,maybe the right spot. But not widely ranged,connected nor the placements matched up to my likes. We have to meet the NATA criteria and have good marks in board. Nothing much...Read More

To be eligible for this course you have to clear the NATA Exam. Application forms, application fees, and application fees can be checked on the official site of Msap. There should be an improvement in the admission process for now students have to just pass the NATA exam but there should be a particular cut-off, like government colleges do. Students have to at least score 50 percent marks to get into college. application form, fees, and dates can be seen on the official site of the college....Read More
