MIT Manipal B.Tech Aeronautical Engineering: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

The college's admission process includes an online entrance exam (MUOET) followed by a rank list used for course eligibility. There are three counseling rounds, with the first being in Manipal and subsequent rounds available remotely. Faculty are rated 8/10, consisting of 1200-1500 members, mostly B.Tech qualified, with an average age of 40. They are generally friendly, supportive, and knowledgeable, although some lack industry experience. The exam structure includes 50 marks for internals and 50 for end-semesters, conducted every three months.

Fees vary by branch, with first-year costs at 295,000 INR and subsequent years between 287,000 to 372,000 INR. Hostel fees are GPA-dependent from the second year, and total costs over four years approximate 800,000 INR. Payment can be made via Demand Draft, RTGS, NEFT, or online. An advance of 10,000 INR is required to secure a seat. The fee structure has faced criticism for not matching the quality of academics and placements.

Placements see participation from 450-500 companies, including Microsoft and Samsung, with top packages reaching 52 lakh INR annually and averages around 10-11 lakh INR. Placement rates are 60-70%, peaking at nearly 90% in 2020. Students from CSE, CCE, IT, and ECE with CGPA above 7.5 are more likely to be placed. The aeronautical branch tends toward higher education. Scholarships are available based on AICTE guidelines, merit, and socio-economic status, with some covering up to the full 4-year fees for top rankers.

Annual course fees range from 15 to 19 lakh INR, with aeronautical engineering at 4,30,000 INR per year. Government scholarships are also available, and merit-based aid depends on CGPA and MET rank. Despite high costs, the college offers substantial infrastructure and numerous opportunities for student involvement.
