Programmes
The innovative Work Integrated Learning Programs (WILP) of BITS Pilani are
quite aligned with the above definition and requirements. The programs are
designed in collaboration with its industry partners, subject matter experts from
industry and academia that enable the students to remain relevant in their
chosen profession, grow in their career and retain the habit of lifelong learning.
The continued availability of workplace related experiences along with the
weekly instruction sessions promote integration of theory with practice. An active
participation of the organization mentor in the learning process of the student
plays a key role. Case studies, simulation exercises, labs and projects further
strengthen this integration.
● Can pursue the programme without any career break and along with the job.
● Contact sessions with faculty take place mostly over weekends or after
business hours and are conducted over a technology platform that can be
accessed from anywhere.
● Mid semester and End semester examinations for every semester are
conducted mostly at designated examination centres distributed across the
country (for details refer to link mode of examinations).
Continuous Assessment
The assessment includes graded assignments/quizzes,
mid-semester and comprehensive exam

Centers
Choice of Electives is made available to enrolled students at the beginning of each semester.
A limited selection of Electives will be offered at the discretion of the Institute.
It is strongly preferred that professionals have taken the following basic courses:
Computer Organisation and Operating Systems, Computer Networks, Data
Structures and Algorithms.
Important: For every course in the programme, institute will recommend textbooks,
students would need to procure these textbooks on their own.

understanding of billing plans and pricing options, cost allocation in an organization,
optimization in terms of paying less vs using less, case studies on cost optimization options,
impact of containerization in cost allocation, cost conscious solution architecture using case
studies, migration decisions, SLA/SLO articulation, Cloud provider strategies for resource
allocation.
Distributed Computing
The course focuses on the fundamental principles and models underlying all aspects
of distributed computing. It addresses the principles underlying the theory,
algorithms and system aspects of distributed computing. The course covers topics
such as Logical and Vector clocks, Global state and Snapshot recording algorithms,
Basic distributed algorithms, Message Ordering and termination detection,
Distributed Mutual Exclusion & Deadlock detection, Consensus and Agreement

monitoring distributed systems, approaches to automation, release engineering and change
management, simplicity as the means to reliability; Techniques to make a service reliable:
observability, alerting on time series data, incident response and management, root cause
analysis, testing for reliability, capacity planning, load balancing at various levels and handling
overloads or cascading failures; Special considerations for managing large scale systems:
distributed consensus for reliability, distributed scheduling of periodic compute jobs, managing
data processing pipelines, management of Virtual Resources, automated resource
management - Infrastructure as Code.
