Sai Mahesh's Review On Birla Institute Of Technology And Science - [BITS], Hyderabad

I have taken BITSAT to get a seat in BITS. I have scored 316 in the exam. It is INDIAs 1 private university. So I chose it.

The course structure is pretty good. The lecturers even allow students to take part in their or other projects related to their field from the 3rd semester itself. The students intresterd in research are always encouraged. The lecturers are so supportive that you are even allowed to take part in projects along with students pursuing their masters.

One the best things about our campus is that it provides with 2 internships. One after the 4th semester which is a summer internship of 2 1/2 months which has no stipend. This is just to expose the students to work culture. The 2nd is a 6 month internship which can be in 7th or 8th semester based on students choice. The stipend depends on the company and overall average would be 25k.

Our campus has a placement division which makes sure the best companies reach our campus and the students go out of the college with flying colours. The placements takes place in the final year of the college where the companies would reach the campus. Most of the students are given a placement where they do their 6 month internship.

The fee structure here is pretty much feasible as of now. Even there is a bank which provides loan directly if students cannot afford it. But there can (will) be a increase of fee of 15% every year. So the fee becomes expensive over the course of time.

Students who cant afford their fee can take loan from a nearby SBI banks which any student can get easily. The students are provided with good scholarship like merit scholarship, merit cum need scholarship and student aid fund.

Our campus have clubs like music club, dance club, literary club, photography club and many more. We also a student activity center where students can play all kinds of sports they are interested in. Every student gets an opportunity to show their talents in the fields they are interested in.

We will be having 3 main tests of which 2 are like mid-term and the other is end-sem exam. Apart from these we will have assignments, surprise tests. We will be having 1-2 labs a week for the subjects where there is a lab. Being an electronics student I'd have 4 labs of 2 hours each per week on an average. Each lab session carries some marks.

Most of the faculty are experienced. It is enough if you attend the classes of the lectures that you are in no need to study that hard to take your examinations. The faculty is so co-operative that you can approach any one of them on any given day. The faculty always encourages the students and always makes sure that students understand everything they teach.
