Academic Philosophy
 
BIT will provide students a foundation for lifelong learning. The curriculum and academic activities at BIT would emphasize the learning process that is based on inquiry and critical analysis, independent research, collaborative work, engagement with society, and effective communication skills. The institute will encourage discovery, creativity, initiative, responsibility, collaboration, leadership, and independent thought among the students.

 
Besides the mandated courses as per BPUT syllabi, BIT would offer a number of advanced modules with the help of faculty from US universities based on emerging technologies. Both visiting scholars from abroad and video lectures will be arranged. This will offer opportunities towards finishing school program for new graduating students. The Institute will strive to work with industries and other academic institutions both in India and abroad to provide its students opportunities such as internships, co-ops training, experiential learning courses, leadership training, and community service learning courses. The Institute will also organize specific leadership courses and student participation in college activities such as peer mentoring, committee work, and events planning.
 
Academic Programs
 

The institute intends to start from the academic year 2008-2009 with under-graduate programs only, followed by other graduate programs.

 

Under-Graduate programs
 Computer Science and Engineering (CS)
 Electrical & Electronics Engineering (EEE)
 Electronics & Communication Engineering (ECE)
 Information Technology (IT)
Graduate Programs
The M. Tech programs in existing disciplines will be offered as soon as possible.
BIT would run research programs leading to MS and Ph.D. too.

Sponsored research with industry patronage will be taken up. The personal expertise of the trustees in the academic and corporate IT sectors would be helpful. Addition of research activities would add to revenue generation from sponsored research. The promoters have contacted various industries to support proposed academic programs at BIT by setting up state of the arts laboratories, donating equipment or providing funds for endowments.

Scholarships
BIT values the talent of the scholars and to support the financially under-privileged as well as meritorious children, it has several scholarships.

In the second year, ten merit scholarships will be awarded to the students based on their performance in the University exams. This scholarship will be renewed in subsequent years based on their performance in subsequent years.

For students admitted from 3rd year, the Institute has plans to introduce merit-cum-mean scholarships from the beginning based on their performances in joint-entrance examination and Plus-Two marks.

Both individual and corporate bodies will be approached for funding scholarships.
The institution will take steps to facilitate availability of educational loans to aspiring students.
