BITS Pilani EEE review

Likes

Campus is beautiful and clean, spread over an area of 380 acre. Greenary is maintained all over and its safe for students.
Fest are amazing and this includes OASIS, the cultural fest of bits pilani which is also ranked as 2nd best fest in asia.
Alumini network of BITS is one of the best in INDIA alongside some of the top IITs. You can contact them through linked In and they are more than happy to help you. Alumini network is more than 70 years old.

Dislikes

College is located in a town location of Rajasthan. and only mode of transfer here is by bus from jaipur. Nearest railway station is 20 kms away that is luharu station.
Extreme climatic conditions of Pilani. In summers the temperature is as high as 45-50 degree celsius and in winters it drops up to 2 degree celsius.
High fees is also an issue. This much amount can not be afforded by all individuals.

Placement Experience:

Sadly its recession going on right now but in normal times it was head to head with top IITS. ROI of BITS is very commendable. Avrg package of top branches crosses 30 lpa. You must maintain a good cpga to be able to sit for placements. Again CGPA is the king boys. Top companies like FMAANG usually offer placement to BITSIANS. Placement overall is above avrg.

The placements increase is appreciable , like in the time of recession also it's quite good .
The campus is filled with green trees and lush bushes

Dislikes

The weather in this place is extreme which irritates you .

Course Curriculum Overview:

Electronics and Communication Engineering has booked through the years and I believe it's one of the core branches where manpower never gets saturated. I got an opportunity to do this degree at this prestigious university so why would I leave this for some other college or branch . We have quizzes, mid-semester, assignments, and comprehensive examinations throughout the semester.

BITS-Pilani It's Magic

Likes

It has 0 attendance policy which offered a lot of flexibility for the students.
The campus life was really exciting as there were a lot of clubs and departments which any student could join. The college offered ample opportunities for the students to focus on aspects of their career other than studies.
The placement cell at BITS is one of the best in India. A lot of companies from and outside of India are invited.

Placement Experience:

The students are eligible for placements from the 7th semester. The highest domestic package recieved as per my rememberance was 90 LPA and overall highest package recieved was 1.4 CrPA. The average package at BITS is 14 LPA. Almost 100 percent students were placed in the year 2022.

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.
