PRE-TERM AND ORIENTATION
Once the admission offer is made to a candidate, we organise a one-on-one session with the Head of Admissions and Outreach team. Post the session, the student is required to pay the admission fees and engage in a Pre-Term Enrollment programme.
The Pre-term Enrollment consists of a focused group session with the Dean, Masterclass with Prof Leena Chatterjee, a leading faculty in the field of OB & HR, Career Services Team meets and access to Harvard Publishing Pre-term courses on finance, quant and business communications. Student organised activities are also planned such as introduction to clubs and committees, informal city meets, game nights and campus visits. As a part of the Pre-term enrollment, students are required to submit couple of forms like the pre-enrolment form, placement form, carry essential checklists, etc.
Once the students join, they go through a week long Orientation which has both formal and informal events led by the BITSoM admin and students. The batch is introduced to each department, clubs, committees, guest speakers, and case study workshops. They are also divided into 2 sections where they compete against each other into some team building and cultural activity exercise, which finally culminates into a Talent Night at the end of the orientation.

EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING
Live Projects are real-world challenges that students tackle in groups to supplement their BITSoM classroom learning. It allows students to gain industry insights while also making industry networks that would sustain beyond the program.
As part of the BITSoM MBA programme, you must complete one Social Live Project and two Corporate Live Projects. Each of these Live Projects lasts two months, and you have to work on the project for approximately 40 hours each, alongside academic engagements. These projects are an opportunity to learn and engage with the corporate to become future-ready. For each of these projects, you will work in different teams.
The Social Live Project has been given special attention since as a BITSoMian you are expected to graduate as socially conscious leader who recognizes the interdependence of society and business. It will also empower you to operate in complex environments with multiple stakeholders. You will get a chance to make a positive impact on the society while working closely with founders and key members of these organizations who are passionate about their cause.
