How is ECE at BITS Hyderabad?

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : December 26th, 2023

Like any other branch, ECE also demands your dedication and passion. Here are some important things to note about B.E. ECE at BITS Hyderabad-

With respect to placements, I can’t make any judgments. This is because placements are solely based on an individual’s skill set and academic record. The curriculum is quite diverse and contains a range of topics including Physics of semiconductors, machines and drives, signal processing, coding theory, etc. 

Though the curriculum is diverse, you won’t be able to acquire an in-depth knowledge of any particular area. Moreover, the course is huge and time consuming. But, by diligently covering it, you’ll become confident and knowledgeable. 

ECE is like any other branch at BITS Hyderabad (and the other campuses), and it is a myth that this branch is exceptionally tough and non scoring.

Which is better, BITS Hyderabad CSE or BITS Hyderabad ECE?

Sabeer Chalana Posted On : December 22nd, 2023

As a class 12th student, it is normal that you have a very limited knowledge of different fields in engineering.

Out of 8 semesters, the first 2 are the same for all branches at BITS. During these 2 semesters you’ll be taught one fundamental course from each branch and some engineering mathematics. In the 7th and 8th semester, you’ll choose open electives from your branch or other branches. 

Now as for placements, you can choose some CS courses as your open electives during your ECE, which will help you for IT placements. Even though at present, people tend to focus only on CSE, the demand for ECE will rise in the coming years due to increasing growth in IOT, Smart sensors, Robotics and Communication systems.

Here are the important courses from both these branches-

  1. CSE- Object Oriented Prog (JAVA), Logic In Computer Sc., Discrete Structures, Principles Of Programming Languages, Data Structures & Algorithms, Database Systems, Computer Networks, Computer Architecture.
  2.  ECE- Electrical Machines, Electromagnetic Theory, Electronic Devices, Communication Systems, EM Fields & Micro Engineering, Control Systems, Signals & Systems, Microelectronic Circuits, Common Courses Of ECE and CS, Digital Design, Microprocessors and Interfacing.

 You can research a bit and then decide which branch will suit you the best. Overall, both these branches are really good, and you’ll have an amazing time at BITS Hyderabad.

I am likely to get EI at BITS Hyderabad and CSE in local top EAMCET colleges in Telangana. Which one should I prefer, or shall I drop this year?

Namrata Das Posted On : December 22nd, 2023

I was in a similar dilemma last year, and ended up choosing BITS Hyderabad. My friends who chose top EAMCET colleges regret their decision at present. BITS does not only offer good academics, it also gives a lot of opportunities and exposure to its students.

If you are passionate about CS, then opt for a dual degree program at BITS, or CS at other colleges. But if you do not have a specific branch in mind, opt for BITS. Later on, you might want to switch from engineering to some other sector, like finance.

The clubs and departments at BITS Hyderabad will give you ample exposure to understand your interests and goals. Moreover, top investment banks, and companies from various sectors visit the campus with good placement offers every year.

BITS Hyderabad has a far better placement record and brand name as compared to EAMCET colleges. It has a rich curriculum, unlike the EAMCET colleges, which give all the importance to theory, and coding is not taught properly. BITS Hyderabad has a good infrastructure with lush green campus.

Thus, if you do not have a specific branch preference, I would recommend BITS Hyderabad over EAMCET colleges any day.

Bidita Ghose Posted On : December 22nd, 2023
Lives in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Like any other institution, life at BITS Hyderabad is full of ups and downs.

The journey towards becoming an engineering professional is filled with moments of self doubt, loneliness, fear, anxiety and the urge to go back to one’s family. There are both good and bad moments in this journey, and one feels a lot of new emotions.

BITS Hyderabad has a really good student activity centre (sports centre), a diverse crowd, intelligent and enthusiastic people all around, an affordable all night canteen, good clubs, amazing departments, fests, a pretty good infrastructure and learned professors. 

All of this makes for a rich campus life, but you’ll have to be prepared to face the challenges that come along with all this.

AG
Aikantika Ghosh Posted On : September 20th, 2020
Studied at Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani (2017)

Both the colleges mentioned here are one of the most reputed colleges in the country and have excellent academic as well as placement records available. BITS Hyderabad offers a BE and NIT Surathkal offers a BTech program in mechanical engineering.

Admission- BITS Hyderabad conducts their own entrance exam called BITSAT while NIT Surathkal admits through JEE Main only for the BTech Mechanical Engineering program. The total fees for BITS Hyderabad and NIT Surathkal are 16.73 LPA and 5.39 LPA.

The closing cut off for Mechanical Engineering at these institutes are as follows.

  • BITS Hyderabad – 275 in BITSAT

  • NIT Surathkal – 8483 in JEE Main

Placement-

BITS Hyderabad- has been quite consistent in their placement statistics, also as the University is attached to Birla Institutes, the industrial exposure is very practical. The highest package received this year is 39.5 LPA and the average package was of 11 LPA.

NIT Surathkal – The placement rate of NIT Surathkal is very impressive. The highest package bagged by the students this year is 39 LPA and the average package was around 14.15 LPA. The top recruiters are Hero, Goldman Sachs, Amazon, Citi Bank, Deutsche Bank.

Some of the key points of these colleges are given below.

BITS Hyderabad:

  • The institute focuses on practical knowledge and updates its curriculum from time to time to make the best out of it.

  • Presently, BITS Hyderabad is having an expansion phase and plans to add a built-up area of almost 50% of the present area.

  • Furthermore, it already has 65 research projects that are ongoing in the campus, most of which are supported by the prominent funding agencies from across India and abroad.

NIT Surathkal:

  • It is an Institute of National Importance. Situated in Mangalore, this institution offers numerous PG and UG programs in various fields of science, engineering, and management.

  • It consists of 11 support centers and 14 academic departments.

  • NITK Surathkal was previously ranked 6th amongst the country's top engineering colleges by Outlook India, 16th by India Today, and 14th by The Week.

So coming to the question if the intention is to explore college life at fullest without having any financial constraints and want a good industrial exposure then BITS Hyderabad would be a better option. On the other hand, if one wants a campus that has an equal reputation and almost a quarter in fee structure then NIT Surathkal would be the better option.

What are the cultural differences between BITS Goa and BITS Hyderabad?

SR
Swarupa Roy Posted On : December 26th, 2023
BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus

I am currently studying at BITS Hyderabad, and a friend of mine completed his studies from BITS Goa recently. So I can give you a clear picture of the cultural differences between the two campuses-

  1. Crowd- Around 10-20% of the BITS Hyderabad crowd consists of local Hyderabad people. So, many hostelites travel back to their homes during the weekend. This has a negative effect on the extracurricular front. But otherwise, the peers and even seniors are really helpful and interactive. As for BITS Goa, it has a more diverse crowd, and its fests and events are more fun.
  2. Connectivity- The Hyderabad campus is much like the Pilani one in this respect because the main city is 1 to 2 hours away. The Goa campus is located in the main city, and Goa being a small state, you can easily access the airport and other facilities from the college.
  3. Administration- The BITS Goa administration is much more strict, and students are regularly checked for alcohol, etc. On the other hand, the BITS Hyderabad administration is much more relaxed in comparison.
  4. Campus- The Hyderabad campus is bigger and has more students ( the Goa campus does not have Civil and Pharmacy departments). The hostel rooms at Hyderabad are slightly more spacious, and the campus library is impressively well-built. The campus contains a rock garden, which is really beautiful. So in terms of campus and infrastructure, Hyderabad is a winner.
  5. Dual Degree- In a dual degree program, if your scores are extremely low, you might end up in Civil or Pharmacy at BITS Hyderabad, and Chemical at BITS Goa.

This is all the important information about the cultural differences between the two campuses. You can choose either of them for your studies based on what suits your personal preferences.

What should be my preference for the following colleges if I have no specific branch in mind: new IITs, old IITs, BITS Pilani, BITS Goa, BITS Hyderabad, BIT Mesra, BIT Sindri, local NIT, VIT, Shibpur,

TD
Tezal Dahiya Posted On : September 5th, 2023

It is difficult to give an appropriate solution if you are not opting for a specific branch. All the colleges you have mentioned are well-reputed institutes in India that offer quality education and placement support to their students. The comparison can only be made based on the branches. Some institutes, like IITs, are good at CSE, while others have efficient departments in mechanical or Electrical Engineering. The ranking and placement vary every year.

If you get a chance to pick BITS Goa in mechanical engineering and BITS Pilani in Civil Engineering, then opt for Mechanical engineering, which opens up more opportunities and placement support than civil engineering.
