BITS Pilani has been following the semester system with continuous
evaluation since its inception. The educational programmes are
modular and flexible. The same philosophy is replicated at Dubai
Campus.
The degree programmes are based on the principle that a set of
courses make up the structure where each course is self contained,
but, nevertheless, acts as a bridge between what preceeds and what
comes after. Attempt is to awaken curiosity in the minds of the
students and train them to think scientifically and to enable them to
face the unfamiliar. Through the Practice School programme, we have
established purposeful linkages with the industry and the students
with the Practice School option get a flavour of professional world.
The performance of the students in each course is continuously evaluated
by the faculty throughout the semesters in terms of tests, quizzes,
assignments, projects, laboratory work, etc. followed by a comprehensive
examination at the end of the semester. The students thereby get
large number of opportunities to reveal their learning.
The continuous evaluation provides a regular feedback to the
students to know where they stand, thus, enabling them to improve
and to cultivate habits of regular study and face challenges. The
integrated First Degree programmes are offered at the first tier with
the nomenclature B.E.(Hons.) from the Dubai Campus. These
degrees are based on the modular structure with the academic
requirements spelt out in terms of number of courses and units rather
than number of years. The courses are structured in such a way that
the student will be able to finish the programme in eight semesters.
The flexibility of the Institute allows the student to do the programme
at a faster pace and finish it earlier than eight semesters or at a slower
pace to finish it in more than eight semesters.
The B.E. (Hons.) programmes in engineering are mathematics and
hard science based, and incorporate up-to-date techniques of analy-
sis and synthesis in the respective discipline.
The structure and the requirements of the programmes are as per the
following details:

BITS Pilani is a pioneer in the field of university-industry linkage and
its bold and radical innovation in this regard has no parallel.
The Practice School (PS) programme is a controlled simulation of real
life where the student relates and applies his classroom knowledgeand skills to the real issues faced by the industry. PS is a part of the
total programme and takes the classroom to a professional location for
a period of 7 months, where the students under the supervision of
faculty get involved in a real life situation. PS institutionalizes efforts to
build the long needed bridge between the professional world and the
educational world.
PS method of education brings the reality of the world of work into the
educational process. The students undergo internship and work as the
employees of the organization, participate in day-to-day activities of
the workplace and work on specific projects assigned, in a problem
solving mode, under the professional experts of the host organization.
As with all other courses, a process of continuous evaluation is also
followed for PS. Students are evaluated for interdisciplinary approach,
decision making, written and oral presentation, leadership, team work
etc. apart from the technical work, by the faculty and experts from the
host organization. A Practice School Transcript is issued in addition
to Academic Transcript to these students who opt for PS stream.
Student who do not opt for PS stream, do a full semester thesis in one
of the semesters of the final year.
The first degree PS programme has two components:
PS-I of eight weeks duration - During the summer following
the second year, and is the first exposure to the world of
work.
PS-II of 5 months duration During one of the semesters
of the final year.
All the First Degree Programmes provide for a PS option. A student
who exercises this option is awarded a degree that carries the tag
With Practice School on successful completion of the programme.
Most of the PS-II students get an out of pocket allowance during the
5 months of PS.
More than 400 companies are offering Practice School (internship)
across the U.A.E. and in U.S.A. & India currently. Some of them are: ABB Al Futtaim Technologies BOSCH Citibank DUBAL DNV
