Madhava Pai Memorial College

Madhava Pai Memorial College, Manipal, the dream child of the Founder President, Sri.T. Ramesh U.Pai, established in July 1999, has been a pioneering institution in spreading higher education in Manipal. The College, being affiliated to Mangalore University has catered to the educational needs of many students, who have found good employment and placement in different spheres of life. Since its inception, the college has been striving hard to prepare students to be academically strong and at the same time training them to become competent to face the challenges of modern society. The college, during this very short period of 16 years has made a good impact in this area, as an institution with quality in teaching ,with high level of discipline and totally insulated against the frequent disturbance of strikes and agitations impinging from outside. We have a team of 33 devoted, efficient and highly motivated teachers and 11 cooperative non-teaching staff. All are responsible for maintaining a record of excellent results in all the University examinations right from the 1st year itself, in spite of the fact that our policy of intake of students is to give an opportunity to students even with the minimum marks of eligibility. We have strength of 439 students during this year, out of which 282 are male and 117 are female students. Morning Prayer has been introduced to bring an academic environment. Dress code is also maintained. This institution keeps its doors open to all, that is, economically poor and poor in their academics at the P.U.C. level. But opportunity for learning is provided through the best teachers with a strong motivation to shape the students in the proper direction. So this institution founded by Sri.T. Ramesh U.Pai is keenly concerned in providing education, especially at a lower cost and within the reach of the economically backward to help them to get jobs in today?s economic scenario. IBM, Wipro, Infosys, Manipal Informatics, Adecco Flexione, DELL, Accenture, First source, TCS J.P.Morgan,HDFE, L&T, HP, ONGC, MRPL, IGate, Manappuram Gold, Muthoot Finance Corporation, Indian, Axis Bank are some of the Companies recruiting our students. The elements of infrastructure that support the teaching-learning process are upgraded on a regular basis. This means particular attention is given to library and computer labs, in addition to class rooms, sports facilities and auditorium. Our library is partially computerized. N.S.S., special camps are held every year. In the camp Shramadana, Educational and Cultural Programmes, Free Medical Camp, Village Survey and other such activities are conducted.
