Here are some of the things that you should keep with yourself on your first day. 

• You're going to become an engineer soon, so keep a ballpoint pen with you. 
• Try to keep a piece of paper too for nothing down important points. 
• Keep copies of your documents with you. 
• The first day is communication day, so you have to introduce and give a summary about yourself. 
• Remember the number you registered for, and above all carry some money as tea break snacks are available in the Morning. 

So, to put it straight, bring a notebook with a pen if you are a day-scholar. If you are a hosteler, consider the things relevant to your accommodation. However, at the Sarvodaya Sangh outlet inside Institute premises, all the basic Hostel accommodation needs including bed, pillow, bucket, mug, lock, etc. were available.

Well, there are benefits for each branch. However, EEE offers you more chances to work in the core-field and other primary areas.

I know a few people from Bannari Amman. According to them, many students and staff from the EEE are engaged in multiple consultancy work. They also undertake AICTE, MNRE approved projects. 

The lab facilities are well equipped to carry out academic works. EEE students do get placed in top MNCs and core sector companies through campus placements. 

Here is a brief highlight of the recent lament for EEE at the institute. 

Placement mostly depends on different aspects. When you train for interviews, you will know about it. Rest, just work hard enough and try not to get any backlogs as many companies demand students with zero to no backlogs.

BITs is autonomus. It sets up their own program. You can download this curriculum from the Anna university portal if you have any doubts about the curriculum part. The autonomous university curriculum and university curriculum are both identical. But the college curriculum itself varies slightly from the university curriculum of Anna. (For example) You can only do one project at the end of the last year in the Anna university program. But you can do projects for each semester at BIT since it’s autonomous. 

Below are some of the subjects with codes mentioned to help you out: 

• 18EC101 Engineering Mathematics I
• 18EC102 Engineering Pysics I
• 18EC103 Engineering Chemistry I
• 18EC104 Computer Programming
• 18HS101 Communicative English I
• 18EC106 Engineering Graphics

Each department will have common topics in the first year and your core topics begin from year 2. 

Apart from these, there are going to be practicals which you will have to attend compulsorily as they contain marks as well.
