Should I take chemical at BITS Pilani or take a drop?

One of my friends studied Chemical Engineering at BITS Pilani. According to him, it is a really tough stream. It is suggested not to drop a year instead ensure that you work very hard.

  • Spend over 12 hours self study every single day for a year.
  • You should be able to get under 1000 rank in JEE next year which might be worth taking a year drop.
  • But if you have secured a much higher BITSAT score, and if you think you won't be able to work this hard, then simply take whatever you are getting at Pilani.
  • Try to graduate with a CGPA of 8.5+ and go for an MS/Ph.D. in any area of your interest.

Herewith I'm providing the basic details for BITS Pilani :

PARAMETERS BITS PILANI
Tuition Fees INR 1.78 LPA
Placement Percentage 99%
Average Package INR 17 LPA

If you opt to drop and secure admission in an IIT, you will be getting only one degree after 4 years. Whereas, you can get 2 individual degrees from BITS after 5 years. There is not much of a difference between BITS and IITs. It is certainly better than the new ones. The top 5 or 6 IITs are better than BITS but letting go of one more year might not be a wise decision.

Choose what interests you. If you are interested in Chemical Engineering, BITS Pilani is a great option. It offers decent academics and exposure. Core Chemical companies and oil companies recruit from the institute. Schlumberger, ONGC, Reliance, etc. are among the major recruiters for the branch. BITS Pilani placement highlights show the average CTC to be around INR 12 LPA for Chemical Engineering. 

But if you are interested in Mechanical Engineering, you should choose PEC Chandigarh.

Do INTEL recruit from BITS Pilani Chemical engineering?

Chemical Engineering at BITS Pilani offers amazing placements in other fields such as IT/CSE/ETC and others. But one of my friends studying chemical engineering there said he is quite uncertain about it.

Top-notch leading electronics companies such as Intel have their base in the USA with 40% of its engineers as chemical engineers. Intel in India does not have a lab in which chemical engineers work. They have desk work in India.

But if you pursue your higher studies and apply for a job in the USA then you might get selected in the USA.
