Both the BITS, Hyderabad, and Goa offer equal job opportunities and the academic environment is also similar. While BITS Hyderabad enjoys a more favorable location in the IT hub of the country, Goa has an amazing climate. Choosing one between the two is a matter of priorities only. 

As far as NIT Kurukshetra is concerned, it cannot match the level of BITS yet.

Which is better for computer engineering, IIT Hyderabad or BITS Hyderabad?

Lives in Hyderabad

It’s highly illogical to measure IIT Hyderabad, the fastest-growing new IIT with a private institute BITS. 

  • Only top rankers with JEE Advanced ranks in the range of 500–5500 get into IIT Hyderabad while those who don’t get through JEE Advanced or have ranks of 8000+ easily get good seats in BITS Hyderabad.
  • BITS Hyderabad is BITS Pilani Hyderabad Campus, not BITS Pilani.
  • The average package of IIT Hyderabad is almost par with that of IIT Delhi and Bombay, while the average package of BITS Hyderabad is much lower. 
  • IIT Hyderabad has a Fractal Academic System, under which there is regular testing and grading throughout the year. Also, you can fill your academic palette with the courses of your choice.
  • The courses are industry relevant and updated, unlike older IITs.
  • Owing to the Japan Collaboration, IIT Hyderabad students regularly get internship offers, job offers, and higher study and research opportunities in Japan.
  • IIT Hyderabad frequently collaborates with IIIT Hyderabad for Hackathons, Coding Competitions, and other stuff. 
  • IIT Hyderabad is still in its development phase and BITS has a much better campus than IIT Hyderabad.

I feel IIT Hyderabad is the better option for CS in comparison to BITS Hyderabad.

As a student of BITS Hyderabad, I can assure you that such claims are baseless and untrue. 

Around 80% of the crowd at our college consists of students who have cleared JEE Advanced, and 60% ranked within 10k. 

Moreover, the students of BITS Hyderabad perform extremely well in studies and extracurriculars. The students shine in various programs and competitions like - SpaceX Hyperloop, GSoC, Topcoder, SAE BAJA, CANSAT, SA Cup, etc. 

The campus has a rich tech and research culture, and the placement stats are getting better with each year. You can become a part of international clubs like SEDS and SAE, and other clubs like CRUX, ADASTRA and ARC.

Thus, you can consider BITS Hyderabad for your B.E. CS without any hesitation.

Which is better, BITS Hyderabad for an MSc. in maths or Vasavi College of Engineering for a CSE?

JS
Jeet Shah Posted On : March 24th, 2023
Studied at BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus (2018)

 If you're trying to decide between pursuing a Master of Science in Mathematics at BITS Hyderabad and a Computer Science Engineering degree at Vasavi College of Engineering, here's some information that may help you make an informed decision.

If finances are not a major concern, it may be a good idea to choose BITS Hyderabad's MSc Mathematics program over Vasavi's CSE program. The reason for this is that in the second year of the MSc Mathematics program, you will be allocated a BE degree. If you have a good CGPA in your first year of the MSc program, you may be allocated a good B.E. degree, such as in Computer Science Engineering (CSE) or any circuit branch.

This is significant because a B.E. degree from BITS Hyderabad is highly regarded and could provide a good return on investment in terms of career opportunities and earning potential. Additionally, BITS Hyderabad has a reputation for providing quality education and exposure to industry-relevant skills and knowledge.

It's important to note that while a good CGPA can increase your chances of getting a desirable B.E. degree at BITS Hyderabad, there is no guarantee. Additionally, pursuing an MSc in Mathematics and a subsequent B.E. degree may require more effort and time commitment than pursuing only a CSE degree at Vasavi College of Engineering.

Ultimately, the decision between BITS Hyderabad's MSc Mathematics program and Vasavi's CSE program depends on your personal preferences, career goals, and financial situation. It's recommended that you research and compare the programs, their admission requirements, course curriculum, faculty, and placement records before making a decision.

Both NIT Warangal and BITS Hyderabad/Goa are enormous and well-known colleges. If you choose either of them for a particular field it will be worth it. Just make sure of that in whichever college you are, give your best and you shall lead to success.

Both the colleges stand equally in terms of academics and placement statistics.

You should choose BITS Hyderabad/Goa. BITS Goa CSE is considered to be on the same level as the Pilani campus. The Hyderabad campus has made some radical improvements over the last few years, as well. Due to the presence of Hyderabad IT hub, the placement and career opportunities available are ample. 

BITS offers a lot of freedom to students. Their no-attendance rule and the flexible course structure allow students to explore and take different courses according to their interests. You can leverage these benefits to shape your career, the way you want. 

BITS placements are comparable to old IITs. Almost all major recruiting companies that visit IITs, visit BITS as well.

What should I choose, a dual degree MSc program in BITS Hyderabad or some branch in NIT Raipur, or CSE in NIT Puducherry?

SG
Sreelekha Ghosh, Posted On : October 25th, 2021
B.E Computer Science, BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus (2020)

Choose BITS Hyderabad over NIT Raipur or NIT Puducherry. Here are some of the reasons for choosing this institute:

  • They offer a beautiful campus with an enthusiastic student crowd.
  • BITS Hyderabad has updated modern machinery and lab facilities.
  • The placements definitely differ between the BITS and NITs.
  • NIT Raipur is very old-fashioned in its approach towards studying and learning.
  • Their faculties teaching method is old and prefers their students mugging up notes rather than learning and understanding something.
  • BITS, unlike NIT Raipur, their teaching method is industry-oriented.

You might think that going for a dual degree is better as IT companies only prefer CSE graduates. But nowadays this notion has changed as with big data and analytics creating a boom, more and more such companies visiting campuses and hiring people from all branches.

Therefore it is suggested that you go for BITS Hyderabad, where you will grow and learn in a much more competitive environment. Your vision will be broadened.

Which is better, mechanical at BITS Pilani Hyderabad or ECE at NIT Calicut?

AG
Abanti Ghose Posted On : August 20th, 2021
B.E. Computer Science & MSc Mathematics, Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani (2020)

Both the colleges are really good and come with their own tags. In one, you will have the NITian tag and the other will give you a BITS tag. In the end, you will have to make a choice between the branch and which one you like more.

If you are interested in coding and electronics, ECE will be a good fit for you. If you are good with fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and like hands-on work with machines, mechanical is another really good option.

With ECE, you will probably end up working in core firms that are IT-based. You should figure out what kind of life you are looking for and what field you want to study.
