I can give an idea of the IT Placements as I am a Computer Science Student.Well this really is an important question to answer as I believe this is one of the biggest factor which affects a student’s or parent’s decision in choosing BITS or IIT’s . So I’ll try to give to an honest being a bitsian myself and to help the next batch of students in taking a suitable decision.
So,If you are planning to make up your career in Computer Science or IT then BITS Pilani has an excellent placement record in this field. However only branches which are allowed to participate in IT Placemnts at BITS are CS,EEE and ENI. In recent years there has been a rapid improvemnt in the pay scale of offers made to students at BITS Pilani owing to what is called Internship Season in the Third year of undergrad studies which started in 2017 where students received Pre Placement Offers and let me tell you the companies which visited in 2018 gave an average PPO offer of around whooping ₹31 LPA in the IT sector which is better than most IIT’s .This system has been there in the IIT’s for quite some time but with this been implemented at BITS as well gives students an edge as they have two other internships in form of PS-1 and PS-2 as part of curriculum.
Comimg to this year(Aug 2019), number of internship offers have almost doubled with around 200 students bagging an offer. Some of the companies which visited this year at the Pilani Campus and with approx no of offers for internships in summer of 2020 are:
