One of my friends is an alumnus of Sikkim Manipal University. He joined the Photography club as an overly enthusiastic fresher with a 2-megapixel camera and later on forgot all about it for the rest of 4 years of his course. Eventually, he joined several other clubs that made his time at the institute quite enjoyable. 

Here’s the list of Clubs at Sikkim Manipal University.

Technical Clubs:

• IAESTE - International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience
• ISTE - Indian Society for Technical Education
• IE - MECH
• IE Civil
• Systems Society of India (I&C)
• SAE India Collegiate Club (Society of Automotive Engineers)
• Akshay Urja Club

Non-Technical Clubs:

• MAFIA - Music and Fine Arts Club
• Aaina Dramatics
• Astronomy Club
• AIESEC - facilitates non-technical internships and projects abroad
• Rotaract Club - Fundraisers, awareness campaigns, and charity drives
• Leo Club - Fundraisers, awareness campaigns, and charity drives
• Blitzkrieg and Showstoppers - Dance
• Burning Ice - Modelling and Fashion
• Photography Club

Additionally, there are a number of new initiatives like Manipal University Technology Business Incubator (MUTBI), Formula Manipal, SolarMobil, Parikshit, MTTN, etc.

It's equally advantageous to be a part of a working group in a couple of clubs. You should try to actively participate hinged on your desires and availability. Although it is not needed, it is beneficial to have a diverse set of experiences to highlight on your CV, especially during placements and applications to post-BTech programs.
