The college has good infrastructure, environment, facilities, and placement prospects.
Placements: The better part is that over 80% of students find placements. The lowest salary would be around 8 LPA, while the highest could exceed 40 LPA, with the average being 12 LPA. Top recruiters include Mercedes, L&T, and BHEL from the mechanical stream, and students can also choose to pursue non-teaching roles, which many do. As mentioned above, the top roles include analyst, management, and R&D.
Infrastructure: Ethernet connectivity is available in hostel rooms and the library (1 Gbps speed), with Wi-Fi throughout the hostel and academic block, and in the library (100 Mbps). The food can be considered fair, with the menu undergoing slight changes every two months. For the mechanical department, we have dedicated labs, workshops, and sandbox areas.
Faculty: The pass percentage should be well over 90%. Exams can be considered difficult and hectic, especially the midterms. Teachers are very knowledgeable, and I believe what we are taught is largely relevant to the industry. The course doesn't feel outdated, and students have benefited from industry training through internship programs, preparing them to be industry-ready, in my opinion.

Tier 1 college with a really good campus and culture, and good placements on par with the top IITs.
Placements: 96% of the students from our campus who applied have been placed. The highest package offered was Rs. 63 LPA, average package in the IT domain is 27 LPA, and the average salary across all courses is 20.9 LPA. Top recruiters include Amazon, Uber, Microsoft, Nvidia, and more. Overall, 280+ companies visited. Internship success: 60% received full-time offers from tech giants.
Infrastructure: We have lab courses each semester, such as Computer Programming and Engineering Graphics in the first year, and OOPs, DBMS, Digital Design, and DSA in the second year. Campus Wi-Fi is accessible everywhere. Classrooms, libraries, and other academic facilities are top-tier. The quality of food in the mess is very good, with the menu changing monthly so it doesn’t become boring. Other canteens and eateries offer tasty food and remain open until 2 AM. Medical facilities are available at MedC, with specialists visiting twice a week and a general doctor available daily. Sports and games receive strong support from the management, with grounds and other facilities fully available.
Faculty: Faculty are helpful and possess a great deal of experience and knowledge. The teaching quality and tutorials are good, and the tutorials are generally quite helpful. The course curriculum is highly relevant and aligned with current IT market requirements. It prepares students to be industry-ready through programs like PS1 and PS2 (Practice School), which serve as structured internships. PS1 is an 8-week internship, and PS2 is a 6-month internship that offers a stipend. Semester exams are usually difficult and sometimes very challenging. The pass percentage is quite low, it is set at 10% of the top score.
Other: I wanted to pursue Computer Engineering, so I chose this course despite being offered Electrical and other branches at top IITs. They could improve on other evaluative components such as assignments, etc. We have three major fests, Weaves - BITS Goa cultural fest (the biggest student-run fest in India), Quark - Technical Fest, and Spree -Sports Fest. Each fest runs for three days on weekends. The campus culture is excellent, and the alumni and seniors are very talented and helpful. The campus is located in a prime area, just 10 minutes from Dabolim Airport.

Strong Academics, Industry-Oriented Curriculum and Excellent Facilities.
Placements: Around 80% of students were placed in this course. In recent years we can SEE a decline in the core companies coming for recruitment, the lowest package being 4lpa and the highest CTC offered to a fresher being 8-9 LPA. The only core company coming for recruitment is Honeywell, around 8-10% people got at internship.
Infrastructure: The departmental facilities are top-notch with state-of-the-art laboratories, wi-fi connectivity, smart classrooms and research facilities. The hostel facilities are comfortable with clean and regularly maintained hostel rooms, with clean common washrooms and common recreational area. The mess food is hygienic. The medical facilities are available 24*7. Sports facilities are plenty with outdoor fields, indoor complex and gym.
Faculty: The teachers are well educated and qualified with many of them being from IITs and BITS itself. The curriculum is industry relevant. The pass percentage is very high with only 2-3 people failing the course. The semester exams have difficult moderate to hard.
Other: I did not choose this course I was alloted this course on the basis of my cumulative grade point average at the end of my 2nd semester. I wish I could improve the placements and internship opportunities in chemical course. Our college hosts 3 major fests in one year (2 semesters), inter hostel cultural and sports competitions and many more.
