Should you pick M.Sc RRT and DT at MAHE Manipal?

This course suits dialysis graduates who want to lead a dialysis unit or teach, and who can pay a private university fee.

Pick it if:
You want to lead a dialysis unit or teach: the course trains you in teaching methods, and MAHE lists unit in-charge and faculty jobs for it.
You want many hours on real machines: your clinical posting is in hospital units with more than 32 dialysis machines, where you work on patients.
You have a dialysis degree with 50% or more: MAHE ranks students on degree marks and its own test, not on a national exam.
You want to learn special dialysis work: students also train in CRRT, plasmapheresis, hemoperfusion and SLED on real patients.
Skip it if:
You are counting on a big first salary: the pay on this page covers all MAHE two-year PG courses, not this course alone.
You need a merit fee waiver: MAHE's Scholar and Achiever waivers do not list this course, so only the alumni and Konkani waivers apply.
Your internship ends after classes start: MAHE asks you to finish the internship before joining, so you cannot take the seat this year.
You are paying the full fee yourself: at INR 5.60 Lakhs without hostel, the fee is about twice the cheapest college in the compare block below.
Counsellor's advice
Apply in the first phase if you have a dialysis degree with 50% or more. If your internship ends after August, apply for the next batch and pay nothing now.

Amrita costs about half as much for its Master of Dialysis Therapy, but MAHE ranks higher and its PG median is higher. If the fee is your main limit, take Amrita; if you can pay, take MAHE.
In short
Saveetha places a bigger share of its PG students, but MAHE ranks higher and its PG median is higher. If both offer you a seat, compare the two fee letters and take MAHE unless Saveetha costs much less.
In short
SRMIST places more of its PG students, while MAHE ranks higher and pays a higher PG median. If you want to work in Tamil Nadu, SRMIST is a fair choice; otherwise keep MAHE first.
In short
MAHE is ahead of SRIHER on rank, PG median and placement rate. If MAHE gives you a seat, take it and keep SRIHER only as a backup.

FAQs on MAHE Manipal M.Sc RRT and DT

Straight answers to what students ask before they decide.

Is M.Sc RRT and DT at MAHE worth the fee?▾
Yes, if you want to lead a dialysis unit or teach later. The full fee without hostel is INR 5.60 Lakhs, and the course adds research and teaching methods to advanced dialysis work. This course does not publish its own pay, so ask the department where the last batch now works before you pay.
What job will I get after this course?▾
Most graduates work as dialysis therapists in hospitals. MAHE also lists dialysis unit in-charge, counsellor, coordinator and faculty jobs for this course. If you want to teach in a dialysis college, this master's degree is what those jobs ask for, so plan your research project with that in mind.
Who should not take this course here?▾
Skip it if you need a merit fee waiver or a big first salary. MAHE's Scholar and Achiever waivers do not list this course, and the only pay figure on this page covers all MAHE two-year PG courses. If money is your main limit, look at the compare block and pick a cheaper seat.
Should I take this course or start working after my B.Sc?▾
Take it if you want a senior role, not just a first job. A B.Sc already gets you a dialysis technologist job, while this course prepares you for unit in-charge and teaching roles. If your family needs your income now, work first and apply for a later batch.
Is this course good for teaching or a PhD later?▾
Yes. The course teaches research methods, biostatistics and teaching methods, and MAHE lists faculty and PhD paths for it. Pick a research project with a faculty member in year 1, because a PhD application needs that work.
Should I wait a year if my internship is not over?▾
Yes, you have no choice here. MAHE asks you to finish your internship before classes start, and classes for the 2027 batch are expected in Aug 2027. If your internship ends after that, apply for the next batch and pay nothing now.
Is MAHE better value than a cheaper college for this course?▾
It depends on how you pay. MAHE costs INR 5.60 Lakhs without hostel, about twice the cheapest college in the compare block, but it ranks #3 in the NIRF University ranking 2025. If a loan pays the fee, check the EMI in the fee block before you decide.
Is the clinical training here good enough for a senior dialysis job?▾
Yes, for most students. Postings are in units with more than 32 dialysis machines that do over 2,400 sessions a month. You also train in CRRT, plasmapheresis, hemoperfusion and SLED. Ask to rotate through every one of them, because a senior job expects all four.
How do I get admission to this course?▾
Apply online on apply.manipal.edu and upload your degree mark sheets. Then write MAHE's Institutional Test. MAHE ranks you on degree marks and the IT score and sends offers. Pay the first-year fee by the date in the offer letter, or you lose the seat.
What is the full fee with hostel?▾
The full two-year fee is INR 5.60 Lakhs without hostel and INR 8.42 Lakhs with a double room and the mess advance. You pay it in two yearly parts. The toggle in the fee block shows exactly what the hostel adds.
Can I get a scholarship for this course?▾
Only two MAHE schemes apply, each worth INR 41,800 over the course. One is for General category students with 70% in their degree and a parent who graduated from MAHE. The other is for Konkani speaking students. Use the scholarship calculator above to check your answers.
Do I get the fee back if I leave?▾
It depends on when you leave. Before classes start, the program fee comes back under the UGC refund rules and the hostel fee comes back in full. After classes start, MAHE keeps INR 20,000 of the hostel fee, so decide before you report.
