The electronics branch has a very good placement record in BITS Pilani. Although the course is considered to be tough. But if you are willing to study, you can touch skies with this degree.

Exams were done with an online proctoring system with mics and cameras ON which made it really difficult for cheaters to cheat in exams. The exams difficulty is pretty good and you can score in them only if you have paid attention in class.
