MS - Completed (2010 - 2012)

Its been two years Since I blogged. Yes, I completed MS from BITS, Pilani in System Software stream. It was a dissertation semester. Semester involves the following steps :

1. Selecting a project
2. Submit the project's technical overview before the deadline. Once done after few weeks you will be allotted a Professor(Mentor) for your dissertation. 
3. Submit the project updates to your Professor(Mentor) before the deadline.
4. Submit the soft-copy of the completed PPT to your Professor(Mentor) and choose the location of presentation of dissertation.
5. Final demo at your selected BITS Campus.

My location was BITS, Goa. Two other friends of mine(Avinash and Abhijit) also got the same site for their dissertation. We did plan well during our Goa visit. We reached BITS Goa, a day before. We rented vehicles and visited several beaches, ate outside.

All 3 of us had presentations at different time-slots and under different Professors. It was a great experience overall. 

If your project is not at all acceptable and needs to be redone. Then, the mentor will tell you on the same day of presentation. Then, the candidate has to enroll again for the final semester and Repeat Steps 1-5. But 95 out of 100 students will clear the dissertation.


We got the results after 2 months from the day of project presentation. We obtained our MS Degree certificates after 4 months from the day of project presentation.
