- Infrastructure is Well designed. All lab equipments work and are in good condition. Air conditioners work well in both lecture theatres and classrooms. Auditorium is also big and noise doesn't echo
- Some faculty members are very good. Others do not make a lot of effort in providing study material. Zero attendance policy comes handy here as you can skip their classes and study on your own.
Dislikes
- Exams are packed throughout the semester. Every month there will be either a quiz/midsem/compre(finals). Every week, there are evaluative labs which reflect on the CGPA so you have to constantly study.
- Not a lot of hostel facilities like a pantry. Kettles, iron are not allowed.
Course Curriculum Overview :
This is a core course. And due to high demand of Electrical and Electronics students, I chose this course. BITS excels at core and IT courses.

They also hold regular talk sessions, giving insights on how the industry is developing. Grading is bad but worth it
