It is one among the top ranking universities in India today offering degrees in various branches of Engineering, Management, Economics, Pharmacy, Sciences, Engineering Technology, Information Systems, General Studies, Finance, etc presently at Pilani, Dubai, Goa campuses and in the near future at Hyderabad campus.

The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between BITS and HP was signed on Tuesday, December 18, 2007 with the objective of fostering collaboration between the two institutions to promote academic and research interactions for Industry-centric knowledge and skill upgradation. The MoU was signed by Prof L K Maheshwari Vice Chancellor on behalf of BITS Pilani and Shri Zarir Batliwala Director – HR on behalf of Hewlett-Packard India.

BITS would operate an off-campus centre at HP, Bangalore and run educational programs to meet the human resources development needs of HP leading to specific degrees of BITS through its Off-Campus Distance Learning & Collaborative Programs. These programs will have the same rigour and standards as those offered on-campus, and will be equivalent to the corresponding degrees offered on-campus.

The educational programmes conducted under this collaborative arrangement will offer the employees of HP India an opportunity to enhance their academic qualification and synergize theory and practice on a sustained basis so as to be multi-skilled with exposure to upcoming technological areas thus enabling them to appreciate key management concepts and participate better in organizational initiatives, improve their perspective, and provide meaningful insights.

HP would make available the necessary infrastructural facilities (such as classrooms with necessary equipment, library facilities, computer and communication facilities with access to electronic mail and Internet) for the smooth and effective conduct of the educational programmes. HP would also actively provide corporate support and enable identified resource persons of HP to participate in the pedagogic aspects of the programme, wherever necessary.

HP would also endeavor to make available the necessary facilities for the implementation and continuation of the Practice School Program of BITS, Pilani

The candidates admitted to the BITS programmes under this collaborative arrangement will be treated as BITS students and will be governed by the fee structure and academic regulations of BITS and also by the service rules and regulations specified by the sponsoring organizations.

A Coordination Committee consisting of Vice-Chancellor, BITS as Chairman, and two nominees each from HP and BITS would plan, coordinate and monitor the academic and research programmes as well as all related operational matters within the framework of the academic regulations of BITS and the objectives outlined by HP so as to commence the Session from Second Semester 2007-2008.
