What Students Say

Peer group - clubs , tech teams and departments

Dislikes

No help for tech teams and clubs by the administration
Almost all facilities are chargeable like booking classrooms, labs or workshop.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

The institute is both serious about academics and flexible in it. There are enough qualified professors and the class size is rarely over 100. The teaching methods is traditional though attendance is not mandatory to give flexibility to students to study how they want and to take part in extra curricular activities and competitions. The term exams happen twice each semester and the difficulty depends on the course.

Class Size: 76Course Fees: INR 600000 per year

Internships Opportunities

3.5

The college has a summer internship program in which companies come for third year students. Only a few students are selected and cgpa plays a huge role. Though if you get a summer internship there is a high chance to get a pre placement offer from the company.

Placement Experience

3.5

The placement drive comes in the fourth year. The drive is quite good and around 80% of the students get placed. The average package for chemical engineering is 13lpa. The highest package is not disclosed by the college.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fee is quite high in my opinion and sometimes the college doesn't provide as many services in return of their cost. The cost of living is also very high. The college provides merit-cum-need scholarships as well as paid teaching assistant roles for students

Campus Life

2.5

There are two main fest - Oasis(cultural) and Apogee(tech) that happen in October and March respectively. The infrastructure provided is good for academic purposes - Library is expansive and there are plenty of labs. But for any other purpose like starting a company or building something (a car or rover) or doing anything other than acedamia there is no facility or help by the college regardless of any result you bring.

Hostel Facilities

The rooms are large enough but the hostels are old and not cleaned regularly, specially the bathrooms. The mess food is mediocre at best Living in hostels is compulsory and day scholars are only allowed if they live in Pilani.

Hostel Fee: INR 96000 per year

Admission

The college takes a seperate entrance test called BITSAT. It has physics, maths, chemistry, biology, (optional), mental ability and english questions. The courses you can take are then decided by your rank. This test happens around the same time as JEE mains. There is no reservation quota.

I like my college because it has a friendly environment and helpful teachers. The classrooms are clean, and the library is useful for studying. I enjoy spending time with my friends. My college provides good education and encourages students to part

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would rate the course curriculum as very good. It covers important topics and provides useful theoretical and practical knowledge. The syllabus is relevant to our field of study and helps develop our skills. However, including more practical sessions and industry-related topics would make the curriculum even better.

muj realest review

Likes

the class timings are really flexible that is maximum 5 hours in a day
there are a lot of fun events in college every other day
the male to female ratio is approx 1:1 and both genders jam well with each other

Dislikes

the money factor i would say is one thing which doesnt add up if placements are considered
the freedom provided here might not be the best for everyone u need to have self control over yourself
people here can get too entitled and the pda inside might bother you but you will find your people

Course Curriculum Overview:

the cirriculum is designed in a way such that most of the outdated and uselss things are removed this year and the labs of each subjects help you well enough to dive deeper into the application of the subject . some areas for improvement can be removing unnecessary subjects like manufacturing process for cse students . main exams are held every 3 months and the difficulty is moderate

A complete average College

Likes

Friendly Teachers - treat you warmly and respectfully.
No severe Attendance Criteria or Extra marks deduction.
Many Seminars included throughout the course.

Dislikes

Architectural issues, building without repairs and many damages, no parks or playground for sports and activities.
Damaged computers and conjusted computer labs.
Need to revise the syllabus for CSE/IT as it is not keeping up with current tech.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Curriculum includes lab works, workshops and seminars. Which influence the choice to choose the course. But they are lacking to get hands on experience. Though they are guest lectures and seminar which is highly beneficial. Need to provide report on summer internship, industrial training, which is mandatory according to curriculum. Which helps in gaining hands on real life skills. But students still pass this barrier using fake certification and copied reports. And faculty is not strict about this. I believe the latest technologies which is not integrated in curriculum like AI/ ML ,recent frameworks , even if integrated not taughtd in depth. Like we have subjects AI , ML but no practical learning. Assignment are huge burden with little learning we need assessment that tests understanding rather than memorization. More subjects needed on softs skills especially in last year during placement season. Live project with company as all student are not able to land good internships. Frequency of exams like midterm( 2 in 3-4 months) ,practical( at the end of semester just after 2 nd midterm exam). End semester exams - 10-20 days after practical exams.

Quality of infrastructure is like a Nit as they focus on giving best building and infrastructure with good curriculum too. Advanced technologies and amenities are awesome.
Course curriculum is relevant and rigorous practice of real world applications problem helps in cracking big company's interview

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose this course because here the course is relevant and infrastructure is good also they give scholarship to study here . Curriculum helps very well in improving real world applications in day to day life . Teaching methods are impressive but some times it looks like a burden as they give load to students in improving themselves so this thing they should improve . Timing of the exams are of 3 hours . Their exam pattern is like other government college but they take exam strictly. Difficulty level is medium level .

Remarks:

College management Director was corrupted person he was the one who charged extra examination fees from student. Mark sheet of school and other important document has been kept by them till final year so that even if student wants to change the college they cannot.

BITS Pilani delivers ; provided the fees fits your budget

The exposure given for finance and Entreprenurship in BITS Pilani is well over what an average engineering college might provide you . They offer a minor option using which one can sit in finance placements with companies like UBS Deutsche Bank , Jane Street and many more .The admission process for BITS includes the BITSAT exam which is an MCQ based exam . From 2023 there have been 2 attemtps of the same ,earlier there used to be only one .However one thing to keep in mind is the BITSAT exams occur right alongside the JEE Advanced examinations as well the results .I personally gave my bitsat the day my advanced results were announced...Read More

I got admission into IIT Dhanbad through JEE Advance exam but chose to go to Bits Pilani because i believe that it has a better brand value and prestige. For getting admission in bits, you need to clear the Bitsat exam, where you are tested on your knowledge of high school level physics, chemistry, maths. And it also includes english and logical resoning questions....Read More

I chose BITS Pilani over other colleges due to its academic flexibilitym vibrant culture, zero reservation and merit based admission process. I had confirmed admissions from other colleges such as DTU but I opted for BITS primarily because of it Practice School program and the autonomy it offers in shaping your academic journey. The admission process is through the BITSAT exam, an online test includes Physics, Chemistry and Maths and English and Logical Reasoning. There is no reservation policy. The cutoff for top branches is usually 340+. The entire process is smooth and conducted online....Read More

I had applied for BIT Mesra, Ranchi, CS through JOSSA. As BITS Pilani provides much more opportunities than it and also the peer group is competitive and better, so I decided to join BITS Pilani, CS. There is no quota for admission, all admissions are taken only through BITSAT. Cutoff for CS on that year ie. 2019 was around 383.
