Question 1

Which one is better for CSE, BITS Goa or BITS Hyderabad?

Accepted Answer

Students and alumni say that BITS Goa is now comparable to Pilani, and not Hyderabad, due to its latest advancements and development. Goa Campus has AI and ML labs coming up and are to be finished before the 2020 freshers get-in. This is a huge step, especially in todays world where AI and ML are like hot cakes and having a good grip on them will help you build a strong profile. Dont get fooled looking at people saying that Hyderabad is better than Goa. It is false, they are people who have joined the Hyderabad campus and are boasting about it. It is very common for such people to do thatsaying their college is the best!Goa is very-well-known for its coding culture and a student from any campus would agree to that. Goa has the highest number of GSoC selections. Students have heard some good professors of CS have moved from Pilani campus to Goa Campus. No one at BITS Goa would spend his entire 4 years at beaches. Academics are very vigorous - it isnt a joke! Just sidelining Goa because it is a tourist place is very ruthless. I am not sexist but I personally know girls who choose Goa over Hyderabad for a better peer group, themselves being from Hyderabad. There are some excellent startups coming out of the Goa Campus like Codedman, Clinify, and Postman(most established one). Those who say Hyderabad CS is better are the ones who get nothing else and keep bragging about themselves.

Question 2

How are the hostels at BITS Goa?

Accepted Answer

From 2018 onwards, most people get double sharing rooms for the first year at BITS Goa. Students and alumni say that the hostels are extremely neat, clean, and well maintained. The toilets are almost like those in a decent mall (All western), 10 per floor and 10 bathrooms as well. You get (almost) boiling water throughout the day and night. In some hostels, you would get a double sharing room, a cot, a big almirah with a mirror fitted, table, chair, whiteboard and a few other storage racks. The rooms are quite spacious and even 1012 people can easily hang out in a room. Electricity and internet facilities are good, I wouldn't say great. There have been a lot of power cuts recently. The common room is huge as compared to seniors hostels (old ones), with a TT Table, Carrom, Chess and of course, a TV with cable. There is a lot of space in between the hostels as well.

Question 3

What are some pros of studying at BITS Goa?

Accepted Answer

As per our research, students and alumni list the following pros of studying at BITS Goa:No hostel curfew. Roam around the entire campus as much as you want, whenever you want. . Although it does sound really cool, students have to wake up for 8AM classes anyway.The campus is breathtakingly beautiful. It is listed as India's 3rd most beautiful campus after IIT Guwahati and NIT Srinagar. The campus is filled all around with natural beauty, and the lawns are well maintained. They have a cricket and football grounds with natural grass and the view from the 2nd floor of the Student activity center- the cricket ground and right behind it you can get an amazing view of the ocean (precisely bay).The mess food is actually good, unlike other colleges. But one can expect the mess food and the overall infrastructure to be way better, because you would be paying up to INR 2025 lakhs for your entire stay here.The best beaches in Goa are an hour and a half away from the campus.BITS Goa has a TEDX event specific to our campus.

Question 4

How good are the placements at BITS Goa?

Accepted Answer

Students and alumni say that BITS Goa placements for CS/IS guys is very good in terms of packages and profiles even though high profile companies like Google, Adobe, Facebook do not come to campus. It does not matter much since in any case, Google or Facebook hire very few people who are exceptionally brilliant. One caution is though that the average which gets published in the newspaper or the one which college puts up is usually the average of the CTC and not of what people get in hand. So don't get super excited to see a company with a CTC of 23.5 LPA and less excited with a company with a CTC of 18.5 LPA. You may never know that the latter company pays you much better in the long run if you just focus on the CTC part. The story is totally opposite for other branches. Most of the students have to settle for IT jobs even if they do not want to due to lack of core companies and core companies always have much much lesser packages than IT companies.

Question 5

What is an honest review of BITS Goa Placements 2025?

Accepted Answer

Students report that in 2024, BITS Goa placements for IT are way better than last year. ET remains the same. Core mech and chem companies have had a hit this year. Although the stats have been released officially, they obviously don't include any PPO conversions.

Question 6

How are the placements for mechanical students at BITS Goa?

Accepted Answer

Students and alumni say that when it comes to core mech placements, the starting salaries in general are below par barring some reputed MNCs (like SLB and Mercedes Benz). Still, the number of good core companies turning up at BITS Goa is nowhere close to the number in top IITs - the BITS brand has a bit of a way to go in that respect. However, the average package for mech students is good because IT and non-core companies which pay a lot more recruit them (same story as any other core branch here). Most students in mech are not interested in the subject / divert to non-core when they see low packages being paid in core.But if you end up liking mech, there's a much higher chance you'll want to go for a master's degree later on. If so, your trajectory through college will probably be completely different from people aiming for placements. So yes, choose wisely.
