Remarks

BITS has many positive points: No reservation , purely merit based admissions Freedom - 0% attendance policy Flexible curriculum-(Inter-disciplinary courses) Great Infrastructure (Well equipped labs and air-conditioned class rooms and lecture halls) Qualified Faculty Exposure to extra-curricular activites Negative points: The ever increasing Fee

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

The course curriculum is very well structured. BITS follows a centralized syllabus across all the 3 campuses. BITS has a bi-semester pattern. A detailed handout for each course is provided at the start of the semester. There are regular evaluative components such as surprise quizzes, assignments . There are 2 major exams: Mid-Semester and Comprehensive Exam(End-Sem).

Placement Experience

4.5

The placements at BITS have been stellar. Computer Science students bag the best placements followed by the circuital branches (ECE,EEE,ENI). Although the core placements for Mechanical and Chemical are not that great, there is a plethora of offers in the non-core sector such as Banking,Finance and Consulting. BITS has a unique PS-1 and PS-2 system for internships. PS-1 is done after 2nd year where the students work at a company/industry for 2 months. PS-2 is done after 3rd year where the students work exactly as they would in corporate. Stipend is provided in PS-2.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The Fee structure at BITS is quite Expensive. The tuition and hostel fees sum up to almost 4.5 lakhs/year which is huge. Since all families cannot afford it right away, SBI offers education loan to the students.

Fees and Financial Aid

BITS Offers various scholarships: MCN (Merit-Cum-Need ) Scholarship: If your family income is less than 10 lakhs per annum and you have a CGPA greater than 6 then you are eligible for the MCN . Merit Scholarship: If you are in the top 3% of the batch, you will be awarded 80-100% scholarship depending on your performance.

Campus Life

The labs are well equipped . All kind of sports facilites are available at the SAC( Student Activity Centre). Badminton,Volleyball,Football,Cricket,Basketball,Lawn-Tennis,Table Tennis,Chess and Carrom are available.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

The hostel infrastructure is decent. All the hostels have water coolers.There is a Table tennis and TV in the common room. Washrooms are cleaned on a daily basis. The dorms are single occupancy. There is a Wi-Fi facility in all hostels

External Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna

BITS is known for its strong Alumni Network. BITSAA (BITS Alumni Association) is very active and summits/talks are held regularly. These prove to be beneficial for the On-campus students. BITS alumni have made it to top B-Schools and Ivy league for masters.

Admission

I had cleared BITSAT 2018. BITSAT is a computerized engineering entrance exam. It is usually held in phases . Students can start applying for BITSAT in early January and the exam in held in May every year

Faculty

The faculty are highly qualifies. All of them have done Masters/PhD from IITs / Reputed Foreign Universities. The research output provided by the faculty is high. Students can take SOPs(Study Oriented Project) and LOPs(Laby Oriented Project) under the guidance of the Professors.

Reasons to not Join this College: By a ex-student

Likes

The surroundings is quite mesmerizing...

Dislikes

The faculties are rude and extremely toxic.
The faculties don't have clear understandings of the syllabus.. the lack of alignment with prescribed syllabus leads to high failure rate with nearly 60% of students failing in each semester
Quite often the semester examination papers include topics that were not covered by the teachers in class. in My class 23/75 students got block(year back). Which must be highest rate of failures across entire India

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is the same across all the 5 colleges It's too outdated to be studied Not relevant for modern-day job markets Students often have to study different materials to crack a job. Youtibe is best solution to clear the concepts

GEC REVIEW BY A STUDENT

Likes

The campus is good, lots of air and good weather. Good facilities, decent food spots around and faculties are also good mostly. Masters courses are available in some departments.

Dislikes

There are cows roaming around as well as dogs so there is a lot of rubbish on the roads. The college is situated on a hill so getting there is a challenge for bus travellers, Canteen is horrible, so is the workshop. Security is non existent.
Anyone can come during college hours and even kill you and nobody will do anything.

Placement Experience:

I have no clue but the highest placements are in Computer and IT branches. Civil has probably the least placement. The quality is good thanks to IIT and NIT being in the same campus thus the big companies that come to those colleges also come to our colleges but they prefer those students more because NIT and IIT are more prestigious colleges.

The campus is new and in hostel one room for one person and the room is really good , we have everything which you need in a room enough lights fan a good cupboard
70 percent of the campus (other than boys hostel) looks nice ..they have greenery , a smol park like area in front of girls hostel and and good classrooms , professors are okaish

Dislikes

Many times hostel water tank gets empty ..so no water not even for drinking for hours and electricity went sometimes not much and one big problem is the internet inside the hostel , outside our hostel network comes but inside no signal
They have a wifi which don't work well and not much range of it ,it's a big problem we face everyday . The food is not good , below then avarage it got degraded since we came to new campus . It's been a year in this new campus
Only one basket ball and vollyball court for sports , no ground ,nothing . There is one ground in front of boys hostel where no grass only needle like rocks if you fall your bone will be cracked and , recently they started to let sevagewater out init

Placement Experience:

Campus placement is okay okay but not that great . Mech and civil don't have that much package avg of around 6 lakh and i guess only 10-11 got placed .. and 16-17 was eligibile for it. For eligible to placement you don't have any backlog in any subject and some minimum cgpa required too

BITS Pilani, Goa Campus- A road to an interesting life.

I applied to IITs, NITs, GFTIs and VIT apart from BITS. I got confirmed admission into VIT while the process for other colleges was ongoing. I withdrew from the process of other as soon as I got into BITS. I also withdrew my application from VIT. I chose this college over other colleges is because BITS is known for its excellence and great alumni network . It also has one of the most successful statistics of placements over other private colleges. The admission to BITS is done through BITSAT. It takes place every year along with Jee Mains and Jee Advance . The cutoffs vary every year for the courses and can be easily found on Google. This exam is of high eminence and is held high in place along with the JEE exams. After scoring well, the course selection and campus selection process is done through BITS's own portal and is solely based on the marks you score in BITSAT....Read More
