BITS Pilani - Experience the magic yourself

Course curriculum is suited as per the need of the job market. Courses generally tend to be relevant as per the current market scenario. I chose the dual degree as a way to get Computer science degree and also to get maths degree as well because maths is like complementary to Computer science. Curriculum is structured in such a way that taking inference from the real world becomes a necessity and you have to constantly do that to perform well. Exams are quite frequent. We can quizzes every month followed by midsems then quizzes again and then final exams. Also we have multiple evaluative lab and tutorial classes as well

You can opt for going for internship yourself or through college. We have Practice School 1 and 2 . PS1 is held in summer break after 2nd year and is an unpaid internship given in a company decided by your CGPA. PS2 is a 6 month paid internship after 3rd year again decided by CGPA. You can also opt for Summer internship by virtue of being in a prestigious institution

Placements of Bits are really decent with average package being around 20 lakhs and that of Computer science going to around 30 lakhs. Student can sit for placement from the first semester of 4th year. Almost everyone gets placed and companies like Amazon , google. Uber , Microsoft etc hire in good number. Placement percentage is around 90 percent. I also plan to do a IT based job after the degree

The hike in Bits fees is generally 8 percent every year. The current tuition fee every year is around 5.5 lakhs and total fees for my degree including the hostels is 32 lakhs. The fees can sound very much for a middle class family but there is a merit and merit cum need based scholarship which is given according to your CGPA . So if you perform well its not really an issue.

Faculty to student ratio varies as per course but its like decent enough to have an understanding with the professor. Professor are really helpful and professional and we are provided with their chamber numbers so we can just ask them for a meeting any time . Ratio generally is not fixed as there are labs in some subjects while some have tutorials but in lectures it is like 150:1. Faculty members are highly knowledgeable and know their subjects well. They are highly interactive as well and you can gain a lot of insights from them
