BITS Pilani is considered to be one of the top engineering institutes in India. It has a strong reputation for its academic programs and research opportunities. Let’s consider the following factors to determine if it’s a good place to study or not.

Academics

  • The faculty pool is inferior to that of the top IITs with a few exceptionally good professors
  • The professors deliver limited knowledge meant to just complete the course and not give an actual understanding of the topic at high levels.
  • The overall academic ambiance is average 

Infrastructure:

  • BITS Pilani infrastructure is considered good surrounded by natural beauty.
  • The hostels are also great with big rooms and basic amenities. 
  • The internet facilities here are amazing with a great DC++ Network. 

Peer

  • BITS Pilani is widely known for attracting the best minds thereby maintaining the crowd quality.
  • BITS has no reservation policy

Research:

  • BITS Pilani is not a government-funded institute so to conduct research the funds here are limited thus a poor research culture.
  • The quality of PhDs in BITS is pathetic and it will take some time to improve the research work.

Fees

  • It’s a well-known fact that BITS Pilani fees are very high thus becoming a major reason why students from financially unstable backgrounds cannot afford to study here.
  • Every year, the fees suffer a 15% hike which is not justified considering there is not much improvement in the facilities.

Placements

  • The placements for the IT and non-core sectors are great and at par with old IITs.
  • Core placements for Civil and Manufacturing branches are average.

In all, BITS has its weaknesses and you can consider it a good option if you are ready to overlook them.
