Doing M.Tech in data analytics from BITS Pilani, WILP manner is not a good option.

Unless your M.Tech is full-time, the industry will not give it any importance. It wouldn’t matter even if you ace your degree.

If you can afford it, pursue a degree on-campus and full-time. Unless you have adequate experience to back it up, an online degree is not considered as good as a full-time degree.

If you wish to continue in academia, WILP or executive courses are especially not recommended.WILP courses are designed for individuals to learn and work simultaneously. However, it is much better to pursue a full-time course, even in BITS Pilani.

One of my friends did this course and he had a mixed experience. Based on his review of the course, I will say it is not a good idea to study M.Tech in Data Analytics from BITS, Pilani Wilp manner. Nevertheless, it also depends on your goal.

My friend wanted to go for a Ph.D. abroad. He couldn’t grab many opportunities even within the same company in which he got placed. All in all, the degree didn’t prove to be much valuable for him because he expected it to work as a base for his Ph.D. career abroad. Unfortunately, the degree didn’t hold much value and then he had to go for MS first before applying for a Ph.D.

Now, here are some insights about M.Tech in Data Analysis from BITS Pilani which my friend and his batchmates realized.

  • The curriculum is not appropriate compared to other courses related to data science.
  • Even the faculty do not belong to BITS itself. Hence, you might feel that the quality of teaching is not up to the mark.

I will recommend you research the course syllabus and future prospectus before joining. If you have a computer science background you can do well in the first semester, but the syllabus can change anytime. Therefore, M.Tech in data analytics from BITS Pilani is not a great option because brand names won't help you everywhere.
