Internships Opportunities
I haven't had any internship opportunities yet as I am at the end of my first year but as far as I have heard from my seniors the placement department has provided an internship opportunity of 3 months to every student as well asked these companies to offer PPO's to well-performing students.
Placement Experience
The placements in Manipal are released every year on their website, on an average between 8-12LPA and many reputable companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Texas Instruments, Google, etc. hire from here. The highest package was around 64.8LPA. Almost 89% of the students were placed last year.

The course in overall will cost you around 15-18 Lakhs just for tuition fees, the hostel will set you back anywhere in between 90k-2.03L per year. Scholarships are available to students who have a cgpa above 8.5 but there you also need to be under a certain income bracket.
Campus Life
There are multiple events that happen within the campus throughout the year, there is the revels event which occurs in the month of March which is the annual fest of Manipal. There are multiple student clubs and projects that delve into many areas like robotics, coding, cybersecurity, arts, music, dance, etc. and to promote these student projects, MIT has allocated certain credits with them as optional subjects.
Hostel Facilities
Almost all the hostels have a water cooler in every floor and a night canteen which is open uptil 1AM. There are many hostel options to both male and female. There are messing facilities provided to everyone which serve 4 meals, breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner. The quality of the food is sub-par most of the days.
