Dual Degree

  • One of the most popular flexibilities provided in the BITS, Pilani's educational structure
  • Under this scheme, it is possible for a student to work for and complete two Degrees within a reasonable period of time.
  • All the admitted students are given an opportunity to take up a Dual Degree based on their performance in the first year of the programme.

Example:

A Student who has been allotted Chemical Engineering or any other discipline can choose to take Computer Science or any other discipline as his/her Dual Degree, if he/she maintains the prescribed criteria(CGPA of 7 or more) in the first year.

In such a case, he/she will take a minimum of one additional year and pay an additional Admission/Tuition fee to complete both the degree programmes and receive the Degree in respective disciplines.

Advantages

  • You can cover two degrees by the time you graduate.
  • Wide career range !!

Disadvantages

  • You should get good CGPA in first year, else you may not get CSE.
  • You need to study one more year.

Placements
