Filed under:

BITS, Pilani, Dubai Campus, (BPDC) was established in Dubai in September 2000 in response to the growing needs for quality engineering education among the residents of the Middle East. Over a period of five years, BPDCs student-strength has grown to over 900 with students seeking admission from not only UAE and other Middle East Countries but also from India and other parts of the world.

BPDC, which commenced its engineering programmes in just two disciplines, has added new specialisations gradually. It now offers five different programmes, all of which are the same as BITS, Pilani - India and are of four-year duration. An internship option (practice school) of seven-and-a-half months in reputed industries is included within these four years. There are nearly 110 companies offering Internship to students currently, with many more companies coming forward each day. Students are also paid a stipend during their internship in the last year.

The institution has recruited highly-experienced, full-time teaching faculty with doctorates in respective disciplines who hail from reputed institutions. Some of the faculty are also on deputation from BITS, Pilani - India. The institution has constantly strengthened its faculty base and has at present, about 70 faculty members at all levels. From its inception, BPDC has maintained high standards in its academic programmes through quality inputs, training and internship. The first batch of 54 BPDC students graduated on August 5,2004, and the second batch of 85 students graduated on August 16,2005. All the graduating students take advantage of the campus placement programme thats organised by BPDC from March to May every year.
