BITS provides a dual admission pathway for pharmacy graduates through an entrance test or GPAT scores. The entrance test is usually conducted in late May, covering subjects like pharmaceutics and pharmacology. Results are announced within weeks, and successful candidates report for admission by late July. BITS is renowned for its research facilities, interdisciplinary interactions, and experienced faculty, with most professors holding postdoctoral degrees. The fee is approximately 2.5 lakh per semester, inclusive of hostel charges, with loan options available.
In the third semester of the master's program, around 8-9 companies participated in placements, and 18 out of 21 students secured positions with companies like Cipla and Pfizer. Students can participate in internships in the final semester, with companies such as IQVIA offering opportunities. Campus placements begin in the third semester, requiring a CGPA above 7. Notable recruiters include Pfizer and Novartis, with the highest package for pharmacy students at 4.5 LPA and an overall batch high of around 30 LPA.
The median package was 14 LPA. A mandatory 9-week internship is part of the curriculum, supported by a proactive placement committee. Financial aid includes scholarships for economically disadvantaged students, master's fellowships, and merit-based awards, ranging from 15% to 100% of financial assistance. Students can benefit from the MCN scholarship, institute fellowships, and Tata Memorial fellowship. For detailed eligibility criteria, students should consult the college's official site.
