Which are the best Engineering Colleges in Mangalore?

There are so many good colleges.

As per my opinion, the ranking would go something like this,

St. Joseph's
Sahyadri
Canara
Shree Devi
Shrinivas ( valachil )
MITE
ALVAS
PA
Shrinivas ( mukka )
And the list goes on.

and to mention that these are VTU university colleges.

if you are considering Autonomous college, then

NITK, NITTE and Sanhyadri.

Sahyadri is partially autonomous and partially VTU.

In Manglore, there are numerous engineering colleges following the NITs and IITs. But due to my lack of knowledge about the location, I cannot make the same commitment. If you want to move outside of India, I recommend Chandigarh University, which is one of the best universities in Punjab (India) and has NAAC A+ accreditation. Chandigarh University has a good reputation, good placements, good faculty members, good infrastructure, etc.

Engineering is such a broad field that it is not possible to give recommendations unless you give specifics. Which field of engineering is your cousin interested in? Is he looking for an undergraduate, postgraduate, or diploma course? What are his current educational qualifications? Kindly provide clarity to your query.
