Placement Experience:

BITS offers 3 chances to get a job or a placement from the 4yr course itself. After 2nd year, an Internship season is carried out for the summer season after the 3rd year. Students get to work in top firms for 2 months and get an experience in the outer world. Most of the students manage to get a PPO. All the students are required to undergo a 6-month Practice School Program through which they can get a job offer as well. Our college has been hosting several companies and has been pretty successful in helping most of the students to get a job. The average CTC lies somewhere between 16 to 18 LPA.

Too much burden for phoenix branch
College fees
Multiple evaluatives

Placement Experience:

College placements majorly depend upon the branch of the student but then there are some people who make good use of the platform they get and secure high-paid jobs even from non-circuit branches. Cgpa plays a very important role for students in PS stations.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible from the 7th semester for campus placements, and many companies like Google, Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, Sprinklr, Cisco, Zomato, Adobe, Amazon, etc. come for campus placements. Almost 90% of students get placed in our college. The highest package was around 70-80lpa and the average is around 15lpa. My plan is to prepare for UPSC after my degree.

Placement Experience:

Placement is what we came for. the placement ratio is decent as compared to IITS, for CSE it is almost 100% and for other branches, it performs well enough. the average package is a bit low, around 16-18 in. for CSE it is decent around 30lakhs. but I guess it can get better with more foreign packages. for other branches, it lies around 15-22lakhs which is decent. I plan to sit in placements.

BITS Pilani: 2 Answered Questions

What is your review of BITS Pilani WILP?Does it consider to get lecturer job?

Shruti DasguptaStudent at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani

BITS WILP is a two-year postgraduate level course, in which 15 specializations are offered by the university. It is a degree course that is completed mainly on weekends to enable students and professionals to gain a full-time degree course while continuing their professional pursuits.

Pros

You get associated with the BITS tag
You can do your PG alongside working
The course is rather easy and with the right dedication you can complete it in 2 yrs.
The syllabus is the same for both on and off-campus students

Cons

You won’t be able to sit for PG campus recruitment
Not many companies consider this degree valuable and thus makes it is difficult to land a job.
The admission criteria are rather flexible thus the peer pool is not very filtered.
Most of the subjects are from bachelors and lack relevance and rigor
There is no visible difference in the knowledge base of the students.
The classes are not conducted by the original BITS faculty.

In all, I think the cons overshadow the pros and don’t deem this course a very wise decision.

Is BITS Pilani "Pilani campus" better than IIT Roorkee or IIT Guwahati?

Tithi AggrawalLives in New Delhi

In my opinion, both BITS Pilani and IIT Roorkee are in the same league while IIT Guwahati is a bit inferior to them. Let’s discuss further on the basis of some very common aspects

Core subjects: BITS Pilani does not focus on core subjects and the research culture is also very inactive. This is because of the extremely laid-back curriculum and attendance policy. The research opportunities offered are very less in comparison to IITs
Placements: In this aspect, BITS Pilani definitely fairs better with its flagship Practice School program. Students of this program receive many PPOs from top companies during internships arranged by the college itself.
Campus life: IMHO BITS offers the best campus life owing to the student-driven culture and great academic flexibility.
Performance: The institutes can be evaluated on the basis of the performance of their students in various entrance exams. IIT Roorkee students score the best in GATE, UPSC, etc. while BITS Pilani scores well in CAT, GMAT, and GRE.
Peer groups: The average student quality of both the institutes is somewhat similar with IIT Roorkee giving a slight edge to BITS Pilani in this aspect.

Both the colleges have their own strengths and weaknesses and comparing them is illogical. I would say that if you are genuinely interested in CSE, then Pilani will be better for you than Roorkee. But if you aren’t certain of your area of interest then choose IIT Roorkee for its IIT tag.
