The first year lays down the foundation for the entire program so you need to be very careful and smart in planning your routine. Make a note of the following tips that will help you if you are a first-year student at BIT Mesra.

  • Ask beforehand if the bus will take the Bariatu route or the Kokar route for buses plying Ranchi at 1 PM.
  • Maintain a healthy bond with seniors instead of being arrogant. They will genuinely help you in times of need. 
  • Mechanical Engineering lab sessions are a good chance to showcase your drawing skills which might also fetch you good marks.
  • Join the clubs that align with your interests and make the most out of them.
  • Maintain a decent CGPA if you want the best companies to pick you.
  • Don’t mug up the concepts while preparing for the exams rather try to grasp the concepts well,

Hope this will help you!

Comparably BIT Pilani will offer better career options for Chemical Engineering. Also, one of my friends attends BIT Mesra for Chemical Engineering, so I have some idea about the course at the institute. 

BIT Mesra:

In his branch, there are 60 chemical engineering students and 60 polymer students. The size of the batches does cause an issue during placements. On average, around 30% of students get placed with core companies. You may also want to consider these points.

Faculty and Teaching Methodology:

The faculty assigned for chemical engineering are IITians with PhDs, but their pedagogy is average. You'll be given a lot of quotidian assignments which do not have any scope of exploration.

Infrastructure:

The chemical engineering department has laboratories packed with flow meters, filters, and other important tools but the overall infrastructure is not up to the mark.

Grading System:

Getting a good CGPA is a bit difficult because of the grading system and strict faculty.

In general, the program is full of average students who are not very creative. Most students mug up the syllabus to score well. As for placements, here is a table. 

Parameters

Chemical Engineering Department

Placement Rate

85%

Average Salary (INR)

6.5-7.0 LPA

Highest Salary (INR)

39 LPA

Top Recruiters

Reliance, Tata Steel, Larsen and Toubro, Bharti Infrared, etc.

Even though the highest Salary offered was INR 39 LPA, it was non-core. If you have the option, opt for other colleges. Top NITs will be good options for pursuing Chemical Engineering.
