BITS PILANI HYDERABAD CAMPUS Review

The college management could be more responsive to students as you need to start a full fledge protest in order for them to hear you.

The course was some what not what industry required these days though some teachers do try to keep up the needs of the market. The pure sciences are more research driven than the engineering branches. There are mostly two components for the evaluation that is open book and close book exams, which is self explanatory. Some instructor might keep a surprise evaluation for which you need to attend the class and can be held anytime. Other than that there is a mid-semeter and final semester exam.

The placement scenario in my college is far better than any other 2 tier college especially for IT jobs. Even if you know tye basics you will surely get placed. The highest this year was 50lpa and you can at least expect 8lpa. We have a system of PS where the college provide mandatory interships to students.

We have 3 major festivals i.e. pearl, the culture fest, atmos, technical fest, and arena, the sports fest. The latter ones are less popular and big than the former. Alongside we have a few minor fests such as verba maximus which is the literary fest.

The fees are very expensive not easily affordable. This year my fees for entire year was 4.5 lacs excluding books and other personal expenses. Facility of loan is there though. The college does not show any advancement in accepting other mode of payment. Only the tradition neft and credit/debit card can be used.

There is a special scholarship for students whose parental income is not high which is disbursed according to merit. You need to provide your parents itr v in the office and an application form provided on the college website.

The college life pretty much depends on how you want it to be. You can stay in your room and no one will bother or you can join various clubs and become popular. We have facility of mostly every sports or activity inside the campus. The campus itself is pretty far from the city which makes students to mostly reside in the college for many days.

Day scholarship is not provided by the college. You need to share rooms in first year after that you get a single room. The hostels are pretty clean and proper maintenance is done. But the administration is not flexible with any other installment such as air conditioner in rooms.

There is a strong alumni network and you can surely expect help in any part of the world. The alumni are known to give huge donation to the college.

I gave the bitsat exam which is the entrance exam for bits pilani and some other universities just a day after my jee advance exam on 25may 2016. The scores are display just after you submit your paper. The exam is online and my centre was in mohali. There were 5 iteration after that through which the cutoff for various courses is decided. One needs to send an acknowledgement to pilani along with a fee of 1500Rs to the main campus administration. After the iteration if you are selected you need to pay the tuition fee which in case you do not wish to study in bits gets refunded after 2 months. Then after this process is over you have to visit the campus which you have got and in some cases a 5th iteration is held.

The faculty in my college are well read and have all the relevant knowledge, exceptions are there though, but most of them are not able to make the environment more engaging or are very proudy or they are not able to teach properly which leads to students not attending classes. A few faculties are running some brilliant projects and actually care about the students but they are in minority
