Is VIT Vellore better or BIT Mesra in terms of all aspects?

SS
Shridhar Sriraman Posted On : August 9th, 2023
Lives in Pondicherry, Puducherry, India

To be honest, BIT Mesra is the dream college of many while VIT Vellore is only considered a backup in case they don’t make it to the top colleges. BIT Mesra is the best private engineering college in India second only to BITS Pilani. Here are a few points that support my stance

  • A high number of students were selected for JEE Advanced.
  • Excellent infrastructure and campus facilities make the ambiance vibrant and comfortable.
  • The institute enjoys an excellent placement scenario. BIT Mesra's average package 2022 stood at INR 13.01 LPA while that at VIT Vellore stood at INR 8.19 LPA.
  • The admission to BIT Mesra is based on the merit of JEE Mains through JOSAA's counseling.
  • The institute has a record of having some of the best and most highly experienced faculty.

One of my friends had to choose between these two institutes and eventually went for BIT Mesra. He claimed that it had a better alum network, better placement records, better global recognition, and a coding culture. Now it’s up to you to make an informed decision!

Is an integrated MSc in mathematics and computing in BIT Mesra a good option?

DG
Deepmoy Ganguly Posted On : August 9th, 2023
studied at Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra

Maths and Computing is considered one of the best branches after CS in IITs today. The BIT tag is also quite popular among engineering aspirants so many enthusiasts of Math and CS  go for this branch to avail the opportunities this field offers. From what I have heard, the syllabus is at par with industry needs and the faculty pool is very passionate and approachable. 

Mathematics is an indispensable part of Computer Science whether it’s research in data science or development. you need to be proficient in math. This course is designed to bridge the gap between the two which it purposely does, opening gates of innumerable opportunities. 

To make the most of this branch, start concentrating on Core Mathematics and programming/DS/competitive programming right from the first year. Start working on a project by the end of the first year and go for an internship in the software domain. By the end of the 4th year, you will be proficient in most CS skills making it possible for you to sit for maximum placements.

So, taking IMSC in Mathematics and Computing at BIT Mesra will be a good decision if you stop comparing your branch with others. The only drawback is that it is not a technical degree but that does not matter in the long run.

What is the toughest thing to do at BIT Mesra?

UP
Utsav Patranabish Posted On : April 15th, 2021
BE, BIT Mesra

The list below will give you some of the toughest things to do at BIT Mesra.

Mess food:

  • It is below par, to say the least, and one of the worst things about the hostel life at BIT Mesra. Staying healthy and not getting malnourished is the toughest task here. 
  • The water used for cooking or drinking in the mess is unhygienic and getting typhoid is as common as catching a common cold and cough. 
  • The food is also of very substandard quality and it is safe to say that if you are healthy enough and you want to shed some weight, then eating the mess food is more than enough to do that without needing a gym subscription.

Classes – 

  • The classes are good until you use your logical sense of what some of the professors are teaching. 
  • No doubt many professors are really knowledgeable, but there are some who will put up the classes with zero logic. You will not be able to question them. 
  • Questioning them or putting up some genuine logic and reasoning becomes a task here.

Dispensary – Getting good medicine from the institute’s dispensary is a task in itself. The doctor will prescribe you the same medicine for every disease.

Administration – Getting a day or a half-day off for college fests or even a simple signature on your document will take your full day with running this department to that. Even after such a long ordeal, your work may not get accomplished.

The list may increase depending upon each student’s experience. But these are some of the common things which can make your life difficult at BIT Mesra.

What is the most stupid thing you have heard in a BIT Mesra classroom?

DD
Deepika Dubey Posted On : April 23rd, 2021
B.E in Electrical & Electronics Engineering (EEE), BIT, Mesra, Graduated 2019

My friend was a student of BIT Mesra and he has told me his share of funny stories from the institute. He used to make us laugh by telling us about the things he’d heard while he was still a student.

Following are the statements of the highly regarded “R.K. Narayan” of the institution

  • He had no idea that he was slowly becoming the hero of Ranchi. He said that a lot of people used to come to his lectures and a revolution started no matter wherever he went.
  • Russian and US had a hand behind Spain’s Euro 2012 victory. They wanted Italy to lose in the final so that petrol rates go down in India.
  • M.S. Dhoni reminded him of himself. He said that like Dhoni, he was also never afraid to take his shots. “R.K.” said that he let others get to him when he should have let his cricket do the talking.
  • During a power cur in class, he said that the US was conspiring against him.
  • For more than a week at the start of every semester, he describes himself as the main bone of contention between the USSR and the US.

Another thing he used to tell us was how he had strong wrists and used to demonstrate how to hit a six. He said M.S. Dhoni’s style of hitting a six is similar to “R.K.”s.

Are the extension campuses of BIT, Mesra in Jaipur, Deoghar, Allahabad etc. as good as Mesra itself (especially the placements)?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : August 16th, 2023

My brother is a student at the Jaipur extension campus of BIT Mesra. Here are the advantages and disadvantages of the Jaipur extension campus in particular, and all the extension campuses in general-

Disadvantages-

  1. The infrastructure is poor and not at par with the BIT Mesra main campus.
  2. The Jaipur campus offers limited courses and so, networking opportunities are limited. 
  3. The Jaipur campus offers no hostel facility. However, you will be provided a list of PGs and Flats available near the campus as a form of assistance.

Advantages -

  1. You will get the BIT Mesra tag on your degree. This tag will help you for placements and higher studies. The faculty at the Jaipur campus is highly qualified.
  2. For placements, you can visit the BIT Mesra main campus and compete head-on with the main campus students. The Jaipur campus’s small batch allows for easier and better placements. Companies like Samsung R&D, SAP Labs, Amdocs, Verizon, etc. and also startups, offer good packages during placements. Core companies visit the campus every year for recruitments.
  3. The coding culture at BIT Jaipur is good and the students actively participate in ACM-ICPC and GSOC. 
  4. BIT Jaipur students are doing really well in GATE and CAT. Many students from this institution receive offers for an MS from reputed foreign universities like Cornell, University of California San Diego, University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, etc.
  5. The BIT Mesra Jaipur branch is located in Malviya Nagar. It is a safe area with plenty of industries for good internship opportunities. 

Overall, the Jaipur extension of BIT Mesra, and in fact all its extensions have some associated advantages and disadvantages. But as far as placements are concerned, each extension offers the same facilities as the main campus. In particular, the Jaipur campus also offers good internship opportunities due to its favorable location.

Does BIT Mesra have a management quota?

VA
Varda Ahmed Posted On : May 10th, 2021
Sociology honours from Jamia University

My sister is from BIT Mesra, and I am quite aware of the situation here. There is no such thing as a management quota at BIT Mesra. 

Every year, rumors spread about this, but later it is discovered that all the rumors were false. You can go to college by yourself to check this out. This will also give you a clear idea of what you are gonna have for the few most important years of your life.

However, there is only one reservation for BC-I and BC-II students from the state of Jharkhand. More information about this reservation quota can be found on the college's website.
