I don’t believe that all BITS Pilani campuses are equally ranked. They certainly have a few similarities such as the curriculum and policies but apart from that the campuses have many major differences. Here are a few components based on which I have ranked BITS Pilani campuses
- Placements: Placement-wise the ranking of BITS campuses is Pilani>Go>Hyderabad. BITS Pilani has the best companies and packages followed by Goa. Hyderabad has a relatively lesser number of companies and the pay is also less.
- Practice School: Under this program, students go through a six-month internship in many great companies like Amazon, Apple, Goldman Sachs, Flipkart, Nomura, etc., and there are hundreds of companies to choose from. The only difference in the campuses is that you can make it to the top companies by scoring a 9-pointer at the Pilani campus while a 7-pointer at the Hyderabad campus. This is mainly because Hyderabad students are made to do summer term courses to get a few extra points during the allotment process.
- Campus life: The Pilani campus is remotely located and the students love a challenging life here. But all the harshness of the campus makes them grow as a person. Goa and Hyderabad campuses enjoy prime locations and facilities thereby offering a different type of development. However, the Pilani students are more open-minded, flexible, and hardworking than students from other campuses.
- Education: Sadly, the quality of education is deteriorating in all the BITS campuses. The faculty pool is pathetic and the mean grade is deflating day by day.
So, research well, talk to alumni of all the campuses, and then make a well-informed decision.
