4Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Worth the high fees due to ROI, but after entering, hard work is expected to excel.

Placements: The percentage placement is high, due to the brand name as well as quality of students. More than 80% of batch was planned with highly reputed companies with high packages in fields of tech, finance, and core came to hire, eg, Google, BlackRock, Nvidia, etc.

Infrastructure: Entire campus is Wi-Fi covered, and classrooms are well maintained with blocks assigned to departments like mechanical, CS, and electrical. Library is also pretty big, with a capacity of 600+, and it has a great interior, and provides a peaceful vibe for studying. Quality of hostel and mess is also good, food taste is decent with a different menu.

Faculty: Teachers, especially in my department, are very helpful, supportive, interactive, and open to doubts all the time. All are Ph.D. holders from reputable institutions and have great knowledge of the subject. Curriculum is also up to the mark, exams are an integral part of evaluation, combined with continuous evaluation. Pass percentage is high.

B.E. in Mechanical Engineering, Hyderabad Campus - Batch of 2027

Offered by BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

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 The course doesn't feel outdated, and students have benefited from industry training through internship programs, preparing them to be industry-ready, in my opinion.

Review of BITS Pilani K K Birla, Goa Campus.

Placements: More than 80% of students got placed. A lot of companies recruit students, including Microsoft, Google, Rubric, Dell, Deloitte, Oracle, Adobe, Nestle, etc. Top roles include software developer, analyst, app developer, product management, etc. The median package is 17 LPA. Core branches like electrical have an average salary of 18 LPA - 20 LPA.

Infrastructure: The facility is very good. The academic block is beautiful, consisting of 4 lecture theatres and a lot of classrooms. Some labs are also present. A big canteen includes a kitchen and a Nescafe shop. There is also a big auditorium in the basement. There is a football and cricket ground with floodlights. Other sports facilities are also available. Hostels of the new block are very good with fully furnished rooms and 2 common washrooms on each floor. The campus is beautiful and green.

Faculty: Teachers are well qualified. They have doctorates and master's degrees in several fields. The exams are conducted every month (quizzes, mid-semester, and final exams). Labs are conducted weekly and have evaluative components also. Semester exams are very tough and the average is very low. The pass percentage varies but is usually 25% of the total marks of the subject.

Other: Fests are huge with the budget varying from 1 crore - 1.5 crore. Weaves is the largest fest with various artists coming from across the world.

The overall experience with college is really good and I will definitely recommend it to others.

The highest package offered to CS IT students at BITS is 60 LPA.

Infrastructure: BITS is a fully residential campus with state-of-the-art infrastructure, including well-equipped laboratories, modern classrooms, a gymnasium, a swimming pool, various sports grounds, and campus-wide internet connectivity. The labs and classrooms are good.

Ups and downs of BITS through some unknown insights.

Placements: In my course, according to the current data, almost 98.57% of students got placed even with the current recession era. The highest salary package offered is 84 LPA. The average salary package offered is 18.34 LPA, and the lowest salary package is not mentioned to us. Top recruiting companies like Google, Amazon, and Nvidia visit the college for placements. The internship is compulsory in our college, and our college itself provides us with it through a scheme called practice school.

Infrastructure: The Wi-Fi facility in our hostel is not good. The land cables work better than the Wi-Fi. Classrooms are neat and tidy. Hostels are clean, but there is a dumping ground near, which sometimes ends with a bad odour. The mess food is better than most of the colleges, and the canteen is affordable. Sports facilities are quite good and almost every sports facility is available. We all get medical insurance.

Faculty: Teachers are quite helpful. They set up a Chembur consultation hour which helps us to get a one-on-one interaction with them. The course curriculum is based on Massachusetts University as it is one of the leading universities of the world. Questions are logically based instead of rote learning. Exams are quite difficult, which makes us more competitive.

Other: BITS is a recognised institute all over the country, just in comparison with the IIT. I chose this course because of the exposure I would get in this college. The best thing is the alumni network and the helpful seniors. I feel the fee is quite high, and if BITS can be made a little bit more affordable then it would be better. It regularly organises fests like technical fests and cultural fests which are quite large-scale and fun, Almost hundreds of other college members come to our campus in fests. We get a scholarship both on merit and merit-based.

Worth it to take admission here.

Placements: Almost 90% of the students are placed through the campus recruitment process. The top recruiting company from my course is many product-based companies. The highest package from my course is 1 CR. The lowest package is 7 LPA, and the average package is 15 LPA. Almost 60% of the students got internships from our course.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure of this college are awesome. Wi-Fi is available throughout the college campus, classrooms, library, and labs. The quality of food available in the mess and canteen is top-notch. Medical facilities are also available 24/7, and sports and games are also good.

Faculty: Yes, the teachers are helpful and knowledgeable; they also help those students who are not able to grasp the concepts they are taught in the classroom. Teaching quality is top-notch. The course designed by BITS Pilani is relevant and industry-ready. The semester exams are good if you understand the concepts clearly.

Other: I chose this course because I am keenly interested in software systems. The best thing about my course is we can learn along with the course. The only thing about my course that needs to be improved is the scheduled classes. Events, fests, and the campus are of the best quality, no doubt.
