Work Integrated Learning Programme (WILP) from BITS Pilani will not offer you much advantage while applying for a job. Most companies view WILP as a distance learning program. However, the BIT tag can help you get a job. 

This course offers good learning opportunities. You can do Ph.D. from reputed universities after completing this course.

Although BITS Pilani has named the course Work Integrated Learning Programme (WILP), most employers treat it as distance learning. A few others consider this as a Master’s degree, but it totally depends on the employer. Many IT companies don’t consider WILP as a degree as it is not a regular course. However, it has great benefits and is good in terms of learning.

One of my friends is an alumnus of BITS Pilani and he has been in the industry for a few years now. According to him, BITS Pilani WILP is viewed as equivalent to AMIE, since it is a distance learning program. The worth of this program can be viewed from two perspectives.

If we look at it from an academic perspective, then BITS distance learning is definitely worth it due to its vast syllabus. Technically, you will be able to prove better than AMIE, because BITS WILP provides in-depth knowledge in the subjects taught.

From a recruitment point of view, you will get calls from companies that will consider the brand tag of BITS but there is a twist. Most big companies will not consider this degree, as it is distance education and is not the same as on-campus. I know a few people who got rejected by HR for this reason.

However, from a learning point of view, BITS WILP will definitely be worth your time and money.
