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. |

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. |
