Location:

Situated in MS Ramaiah Nagar, MS Ramaiah Institute of Technology (MSRIT) has a very good location. It is well connected by BMTC buses which ply here from almost all parts of the city. The nearest bus stop is just about 2 minutes' walk from the main gate of college.

 Infrastructure:

The campus of MSRIT is huge. It is so vast that it feels like a small village. All the courses that can be possibly taught are there in the campus and there are separate, often more than one building for each of them. Also new buildings keep coming up to accommodate for ever increasing courses and students. Infrastructure of some of the new blocks is all the rage while many others are undergoing renovations. Labs are equipped with all the necessary instruments and they are replaced with new ones regularly. There are more than one library of which students make use of. They remain open till 11.30pm during exams. A Digital library is also there which can be accessed twenty four-seven. WiFi is currently provided in only a few areas of the campus but LAN is accessible from labs and browsing rooms and serves purpose well. Sports facilities are something students feel should improve. There is a common playground for cricket, football and other sports.

MSRIT has separate hostels, charges for which are Rs.42,000 per year including food. Nothing about it is out of the world but they are decent, liveable ones. In fact they are much better than old hostels which had small rooms and dirty washrooms. Girls’ hostel have tiny rooms that need to be shared with 2 or 3 more people. Mess food is not bad but you get bored of it after a while. Also it is difficult to differentiate between North Indian & South Indian dishes that are available in mess, as the cook uses same masalas in all items.

Fees:

For Karnataka CET students – Rs 36,090
For COMEDK (UGET) students – Rs 1.25 lakh
