IISER is a great opportunity for science to grow.

Placements: About 54% of students in my course get internships in foreign universities. Among them, 50% are already placed, while others are pursuing Ph.D. and post-doctorate studies. This college focuses more on research. The highest package here is about 46 LPA and the lowest is Rs.37,000 per annum, which a Ph.D. student receives as a stipend for doing projects under professors.

Our college has good course and good faculty but not ideal campus life.

Placements: If you want placements, IISER isn't the right choice. It is for building a student for further research, mostly doing a Ph.D. Some students might opt for jobs in education. Chemistry students might look for a job in a pharma company but that's not the college's responsibility. Do not come to IISER hoping for good placements. You'll land yourself in a nice Ph.D. course if you study sincerely.

Love the campus, best infrastructure.

Placements: Basically IISERs are not for placement. It is a center for excellence. But some students opt for placements. Most big companies come for placement like Google, Microsoft, Adobe etc. And various research companies. About 50% of students got internship in various research centers and universities and in other companies.

A must place for those young minds who wish to do research on any Science topic in future.

Placements: It is a Science research institute and we usually go abroad or any other higher institutions to pursue our PhD and post-doc degrees before applying for a job. Therefore there is no placement after BSMS degrees. There is no campus placement either. However, with PhD and post-doc fellows end up as research scientists or professors in good institutions.

Our college has world-class infrastructure, highly qualified faculty, and campus life.

Placements: About 80% of the students got internships. Generally, IISER is not for placements. These are the centers of excellence, where one can get a high-quality world-class education and serve the nation. One can earn millions of money after completing his/her graduation from here. This institute is for research. After this course, you can opt for any research center in the world.

Very good place for research.

Placements: IISER Berhampur is a research institute and is not focused on placement rather it's main motive is research. Students here look for Ph.D. in prestigious institutions in India and abroad. If we talk about internships, there are plenty of opportunities for that as IISERs have tie ups with many other institutions (including foreign ones). This year one of our seniors got to study Ph.D. at Cornell University, US. I know many of my friends who have done their internship in prestigious institutions li...

For the EWS category, you can expect 95-110 marks to get into IISER Berhampur.

The cutoff rank for EWS is around rank 720 in past years.

If you score a decent 110 or more, you will easily get into the IISER Berhampur.

Thank you.
