Founded in 1953 as a single medical college, Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) has evolved into a multi-faculty institution synonymous with academic distinction and healthcare excellence. Granted Deemed University status in 1993 and accorded recognition as an Institution of Eminence in 2020, MAHE today nurtures over 35,000 students from 60+ nations across its campuses in Manipal, Mangaluru, Bengaluru, Jamshedpur, and Dubai. Presently, MAHE offers about 300+ programs in 31+ streams which include undergraduate, postgraduate, and postdoctoral levels.

MAHE’s commitment to providing a conducive learning environment is evident through the provision of cutting-edge facilities, including a Simulation Lab, an Innovation Centre, Asia's largest health sciences library, a world-class anatomy museum, and a business incubation center. The MARENA, an extensive indoor sports complex, reinforces our belief in the holistic development of students, offering a range of sports facilities and a high-tech gym. MAHE fosters a thriving community where over 3000 faculty and nearly 10,000 support staff create a nurturing environment for intellectual exploration and personal growth. Manipal, a sprawling university town nestled in Karnataka's Udupi district, is a testament to MAHE's dedication to holistic education, with a dynamic blend of cultures and aspirations.

The Manipal Group, a pioneer in higher education services with more than six decades of experience in excellence, also owns and operates campuses in Sikkim, Jaipur in India, Malaysia, and Antigua, in the Caribbean.
