Yes, companies such as Google, Apple, Microsoft, and Facebook hire students from BITS, VIT, or KIIT. In fact, they hire from colleges all across the country. These companies are all for skills. If you have the required skill set, you can get interview calls from these companies. If you belong to some IIT, you will certainly have some advantage over the others.

Which is better, Great Lakes Gurgaon PGDM or BITS Pilani for an MBA? I am a fresher looking for non-IT jobs.

RD
Ravi Dhaneja Posted On : May 28th, 2024
Studies at BITS Pilani

Both of these colleges are good for pursuing a PGDM/MBA. The decision to choose the college should depend on your preference. The first aspect of choosing the college is the location of the college and your ability to shift to pursue the degree. 

If you are okay with shifting to Pilani, then I will suggest you to choose BITS Pilani for MBA. The course curriculum of MBA at BITS Pilani has been designed to meet the industry needs. You will be trained in such a way that once you start working, you’ll find it easy to cope with the workload. 

The practical approach that is used by BITS Pilani in its curriculum to give students access to a high level of education is commendable. You will get opportunities to do internships from top companies and even bag PPO offers if you are lucky. Each year top companies visit our college to recruit students. 

Thus if you are comfortable with moving to a completely different place away from your home, I would suggest BITS Pilani for an MBA.

Which one is considered better, IIT Hyderabad for an M.Tech CSE (RA) or BITS Pilani for CSE?

BG
Bidita Ghose Posted On : May 20th, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Before I begin, let me clear the misconception that the 3-year MTech program is inferior in quality to the 2-year MTech program. Because of this false assumption, the higher ranking MTech students tend to choose the 2-year MTech programs instead of the 3-year program.

Similarity

  • In reality, the credibility of the degree you are awarded and the credits requirement of both programs are equal. 

Differences

  • The difference is that you will have to invest more time in your RA (research assistantship) duties. 3 year MTech is funded from research projects so you will be working on research projects quite early. 3 years are more than enough to get publications with the right determination and hard work. This is extremely beneficial for higher studies as well as making the most out of your skills.

Both IIT Hyderabad and IIT Bombay offer 3-year MTech programs. There may be some other IITs as well offering similar programs.

Between BITS and IIT Hyderabad, I think the latter is a better option from a research point of view. Additionally, IIT Hyderabad also has a locational advantage, better connectivity, industry, expert interactions, etc.

Which is better for CSE, BITS Pilani or ISM Dhanbad?

MB
Mina Bawa Posted On : July 29th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Dhanbad (2020)

ISM is good because its tag helps in getting better opportunities in the future. If you're average at coding, even then do not worry because at ISM you will anyway get good packages. Being a government college, the syllabus at ISM Dhanbad is better.

ISM has a placement rate of 100% for CSE in IIT Dhanbad. If you're planning to study abroad then the IIT degree will matter greatly for admission to any foreign University.

As for BITS Pilani, surely it ranks among the top educational institutes in India for engineering. It is on par with the top IITs and the placement rate is 100% like at ISM Dhanbad.

The campus keeps getting renovated and holds a photographic charm with state-of-the-art facilities. The crowd is amazing as well. You can decide based on your location, future goals, preferred weather if you will- because both institutes are at par with each other.

What happens if we miss the course registration at BITS Pilani?

NS
Navneet Singh Posted On : July 29th, 2021
Studied at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani

The registration is a process through which you will choose your instructors for the course. For registering you will be randomly allotted a number called PR number and that's the basis for the registration.

Secondly, the bigger the PR number, the lesser are your chances of getting the most popular instructors. That can be a real loss because you might miss out on good teaching and good marks. So, it's better to register soonest.

In case you miss the ongoing registration, you can register after a week. you will be charged a late fee and once it's been submitted you can register but again, it'll not be worth it because by the time you will register, all the amiable, erudite, and friendly guides would have been chosen by others.

Which is better, BITS Pilani (Pilani campus) or IIT Ropar?

PC
Partha Choudhury Posted On : September 13th, 2021
B.E. Computer Science, Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani (2024)

BITS Pilani has been in existence much before IIT Ropar and while it is just growing, BITS Pilani would be a better choice. 

It’s not only the Institutes with the IIT tag that have contributed to the successful future of engineering and promoting it, but the institutes other than IITs such as BITS Pilani, IIEST, and Jadavpur University have played a significant role. 

Categories BITS Pilani (Pilani Campus) IIT Ropar
Course Fee 19.19 lakh 8.58 lakh
Highest CTC 24 LPA 18-20 LPA
Average CTC 15 LPA 8-9 LPA
Recruiting Companies Wipro, TCS, Accenture, Dell, etc. HP, Tata Steel, Deloitte, Capgemini, etc.

The education they furnish is the same as that of any IITs. Therefore, BITS can be taken into consideration.

When will BITS Pilani open after COVID-19?

MK
Muskaan Girish Kumar Posted On : July 29th, 2021
Executive at Department of Sponsorship and Marketing (2018-present)

BITS Pilani should open up in September. The country will probably not recover from the pandemic before this. With the number of vaccinations going around, it will take some time.

You can think about a little, there are about 10 lakhs JEE Main applicants. Of this, only 5000 are selected for IIT. Even if we consider the death rate of just 18 to 20 years old, it is about 0.05%. This is equivalent to the number of people selected by IIT.

Even if lives are lost that are equivalent to the IIT intake, nothing much could happen. In the end, the decision is to be taken by the Senate and the guidelines provided by UGC. If nothing materializes, the online classes will definitely continue and any changes will be informed by the authorities to students.

Which is better for placements, BIT Sindri or BITS Pilani?

SP
Sreeja Prasad Posted On : June 10th, 2021
Studied Mining Engineering at Birsa Institute of Technology, Sindri

It will not be fair to compare BITS Pilani and BIT Sindri. There is no collation between both of the colleges, and BITS Pilani is way ahead in terms of all factors such as Placement, Infrastructure, Educational, Ambience, Labs, etc. despite being a Private college.

BITS Pilani is compared with IITs. On the other hand, BIT Sindri is newly established and comes under Government College in Jharkhand and is guided and run by the state government.

Here are some statistics regarding the institute which may help you differentiate the institutes.

Parameters

BITS Pilani

BIT Sindri

Average CTC

5 LPA

4.5 LPA

Highest CTC

1.40 Cr

10.12 LPA

Major Recruiters

Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Oracle, JP Morgan, etc.

TCS, Byjus, Tata Steel, Deloitte, Schlumberger, Vedanta, Wipro, etc.

So, if you get a chance to opt between two of either, I would advise you to go for BITS Pilani.

Which should I prefer, electrical engineering at BITS Pilani, Pilani campus or CSE at BITS Pilani, Hyderabad campus?

MK
Manaswini Khara Posted On : July 20th, 2021
Pune University (2019)

According to my friends studying at BITS Pilani, you should go with CSE. As it has got quite higher packages and has a greater number of job opportunities.

  • The campus hardly matters. You should pick your stream carefully, as it will determine your career.
  • Check the faculty, alumni, and the scope your chosen stream offers.
  • Due to the rapid growth of the corporate world and IT firms, there is a huge demand for CSE graduates.
  • BITS overall provides a good curriculum as well as placement. Choose the branch you feel confident about.

There are many top companies that participate in the placement drives conducted by BITS Pilani. They include companies like Microsoft, Capgemini, Accenture, TCS, Cognizant, IBM, Mindtree, ZS Associates, HCL, HP, Morgan & Stanley, etc.

It is suggested that you go for CSE rather than electrical due to its huge demand and scope. But ultimately it is your decision to make.
