Manipal University has state of the art infrastructure, a very vibrant college life with students from across the country. My time as a student at Manipal University in B.Com (Hons) in Accounting was a fine experience, where I had the platform to build my skills and knowledge in Accounting with the help from supportive and experienced faculty. I had the opportunity to also pursue the ACCA qualification along my Bachelor’s thereby strengthening my core in the subject and making me employable in the job market.
With the global brand that Manipal is and the expectation it brings when a student first comes here, they can certainly do better to improve the network with employers and other universities providing student first hand practical experience and opportunity through internships or exchange programs. Furthermore, I think the syllabus and course structure should be designed in a manner that students should be encouraged to participate in activities outside the classroom which can enhance learning and develop practical skills. I feel the University should also strive to better their alumni relations leveraging their global network which can be benefit for the students and the brand of the University. Overall, it was a good experience but i would like to see it strive to reach its potential of being one of the finest universities in the country
