Manipal University B.A Review By Anshika Rani

Overall it's a very great college with a very decent infrastructure. It is situated on the outskirts of Jaipur the environment is very friendly and easy to adapt to it is surrounded by greenery it's more famous for BTech but also provides a great opportunity for several other courses as well. The college also has its own hostel for people coming from across the world. Life at Manipal is totally a life one can imagine their college life to be.

Talking about academics it is well-known for Btech but also provides a great opportunity for several other courses. As being a student of journalism and mass media Manipal has helped me a lot in every aspect of life talking about the classroom and media labs activities it was one of the most effective and important for a media student. Media labs were further divided into smaller labs like the audio visual lab which helps one to record audios like for radio, television and broadcasting lab where we were taught about the processes of news anchoring and broadcasting of a show, editing lab was for editing the documentaries and film shot by students. In, BA (J&MC) you’ll not just only get to learn about communication skills but also about digital literacy. They also take for the tour of media houses located in jaipur like first press and give us an opportunity to participate in workshops. It also gives us an opportunity to select electives that are related to other courses like Hotel management, Psychology, Law and Economics . It has a cell appointed for each department like an examination cell, placement cell, admission cell, etc. Discussing about the discipline there is a special community also known as the DC community. The classes consist of both the way of teaching online as well as the offline medium.

The faculty is friendly and is ready to help one in any possible manner. The teaching structure provided by the university is strictly followed by the teachers. Most of them have done their Ph.D. in their respective fields which makes them have more in-depth knowledge about their subjects.

The placement cell is mainly very good for management and engineering departments as well as in our department. For our department they provide us good placements with good packages special social media groups are made for it for easier updates. There is a special cell made for the placement criteria which makes the students easier to stay updated and get their queries resolved.

Life at Manipal Hostel is no less than the feeling of being a graduate student in Karan Johar's movie. It is made in such a manner that the students won't have to struggle to reach the university an underground subway connects the hostel directly to the university. There are many facilities provided within the hostel premises like laundry, swimming area, play zone, cricket ground, etc. There are several outlets available within hostel premises like Burger Farm, Subway, Tea Tradition, Lets go Live, Dialog and many more. There are separate blocks for boys and girls and a common mess. Sports facilities Are also available in hostel as well. Talking about the rooms they are very spacious Which makes a student's life easier and gives a total feel of home away from home.

Talking about the infrastructure the whole campus including the hostel premises is painted yellow as you can also call it a yellow castle. It is made in a manner that all the important points are kept in mind like sewage waste treatment, solar plants are also installed. The entrance of the university is facing the most famous and attractive part of the university which is the dome which is made in a way that will remind you of the historical monuments and will give a very royal feels.

Life at Manipal is very decent and fancy and a story that one might remember their whole life. The campus not only teaches you about academics but it also teaches you a lot about life. Life here is very lively and happening as every other day there is something or the other thing happening around whether it feast, student chapters events or sports tournaments, etc.
