Remarks :
Admission to MIT's B.Tech program is primarily based on performance in the Manipal Entrance Test (MET), an online entrance exam conducted by the university. The exam has subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and English. The syllabus is generally aligned with 10+2 syllabus . The eligibility criteria is that we must have passed 10+2 or equivalent with Physics, Mathematics, and English as compulsory subjects, along with Chemistry/Biotechnology/Biology/Technical Vocational subjects as optional. They need to secure a minimum of 50% aggregate marks in these subjects.There is a non-refundable application fee, which can be paid online through various payment methods.students who qualify for the MET are called for counseling, where they can choose their preferred branch based on their rank and availability. The counseling process is conducted online,the timeline for applications, MET, and counseling typically starts early in the year (January-March), with MET held in April-May.
Course Curriculum Overview :
curriculum includes foundational courses in mathematics, physics, and basic engineering principles in the first few semesters. This is followed by specialized biomedical courses.Courses include biomechanics, biomedical instrumentation, medical imaging, biomaterials, and tissue engineering. We have access to modern labs and equipment, which is critical in a field that is so hands-on. We have the opportunity to engage in research projects,often in collaboration with manipal's medical college KMC .The university has partnerships with various hospitals, research institutions, and companies, providing students with internship opportunities and exposure to real-world applications of their studies.There is an active student community with clubs and groups dedicated to biomedical engineering, offering opportunities for networking and extracurricular projects.
Internships Opportunities :
Engineering students often secure internships in sectors like IT and Software Development, Electronics, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Biotechnology, and even non-core sectors like Finance, Consulting, and Marketing.Some students opt for longer internships during their final year, which can last an entire semester (usually the 8th semester).These internships often involve more in-depth work and can sometimes lead to pre-placement offers (PPOs).Students interested in research can work on projects under the guidance of faculty members or in collaboration with research institutions. These internships may involve contributing to ongoing research or working on independent projects.Through programs like IAESTE (International Association for the Exchange of Students for Technical Experience) or AIESEC, students at MIT can secure international internships.Apart from the Placement Office, MIT has an Internship Cell that specifically focuses on securing internship opportunities.

MITE college review (1st year)
Placement Experience :
Students became eligible for placements after 6th semester. Compared to last year, the results of this year's placement were not good, probably due to the current market scenario. Only a few students got placed in companies this year, and, according to my current knowledge, the highest package received by a student this year was ?36lpa by a Japanese company, and the student is from Civil Engineering. This package is the highest package the college has ever received.
