Great professors and I loved the chemistry department.
Placements: Students often continue their academic journey by pursuing master's and doctoral degrees. IISERs have a strong collaboration with international research institutes like Max Plan. Many graduates go to DRDO, ISRO, CSIR, and R&D. Biotech companies also come here.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available in every building. Labs are great. Classrooms are great. The sports ground is pretty okay not as great as I expected and the canteen is pretty fine and mess is also okay. The library is big but the books are fewer than expected that's it. Hostels are clean and good.
Faculty: BSMS course structure is very great and promotes an interdisciplinary approach. Semester exams are tough and the course is purely for research-level students. It's not easy and the great chemistry department is best here. Other departments are also great and IISER B provides B.Tech, BS Eco as well.

The campus is beautiful. It provides top-notch education.
Placements: Companies avoid recruiting from campus as students leave abroad for a PhD or further higher education. Though they do get opportunities off campus. Students are highly motivated and also mostly inclined towards the research side and academia line of career.
Infrastructure: The availability of knowledge throughout including the library is in plenty. But, the hostel rooms are very small. The canteen is okay. It provides food till late at night 1.00 PM. Mess is clean and food is hygienic.
Faculty: Teachers are actually very qualified and knowledgeable. They are helpful indeed. The courses however do impact our learning in a way that is good for our career. Semester exams hold some challenges and we have to manage labs. Labs too have an impact on our education. The quality of education and the way it's imparted via professors is actually great.

If students want good exposure then they can come but not for placements.
Placements: There are very low placements. Most of them are going to research among 100 students. A maximum of 10 students got placements. The average package is 15 LPA. Data science students get the maximum package but this year economic science students got a package of 35 LPA.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure and other facilities are very good. All the infrastructure like a mess, hostel, library, and other amenities are good. We have different types of sports courts in our college. We also have a health center in our college for medical facilities.
Faculty: Faculty members are quite good enough and very qualified. It is not a typical engineering course here. Most of the course curriculum depends on the research field. There is not much-applied thing or application-based, so we have to study hard to get good grades.
Other: I chose this because it's an Indian institute so the crowd here is very good. Majorly, the course curriculum is not for a typical engineering student like we can't pass the course just by learning last night before exams. Fests and events are very good.

Detailed information about IISER Bhopal.
Placements: It's a research institute, and many students want to pursue research or a PhD after BSMS. So for this reason placement rate is low, but not zero. There are some departments that have decent placements like economic science. IISERB also has internship opportunities.
Infrastructure: IISERB has a 24x7 Wi-Fi service. Labs and library services are available from 8:00 AM to 1:00 AM. Hostels are good and have double occupancy. Mess food is also good (served 3 times a day). Both indoor and outdoor games are available with a proper playground.
Faculty: Faculty members are well-educated and helpful. Almost every faculty member is PhD holder from any famous institute. They all are incredibly knowledgeable. IISERB has 3 main streams 1st is BSMS Natural Science, 2nd is BS Engineering and 3rd is BS Economics. From 3rd year, students take their major and minor and then continue on it.
Other: IISERB is one of the best institutes for pursuing research. We get many exposure from the college. LoR is very helpful for further study. It is a crowdless campus. Scholarships are available. Almost every month we have 1 or 2 festivals or events.

The campus life is the best.
Placements: In my course, many students pursue their future studies in various fields for PhD or JRF by clearing the GATE exam. Some students went abroad for internships, like Spain, the US, and Germany. Last year, our senior also represented India in the talk of WHO.
Infrastructure: There is Wi-Fi all over the campus. Labs are well-mannered and maintained. In the library, there are so many books and review articles are present. There is also a health center on our campus. There are so many sports grounds inside the campus near the hostel area. The mess food is good enough.
Faculty: Our institute teachers are all junior researchers doing their research in their fields and teaching on campus only. They are frank enough. We can ask our doubts anytime by Email and they reply to us in a short period of time. There are too many exams but it will be enough for us to study from the first day.
Other: Our campus fest is very good and held in February-March. There is enough space for students so there we cannot see the crowd.

A developing research institute in Central India for sciences.
Placements: For students of natural sciences, the placement opportunities are quite low as compared to economics and engineering students. However, due to the presence of departments like Maths and Physics, people can get some offers if they possess relevant skills.
Infrastructure: The hostel facilities are excellent if you get H8 or the new hostel being built in front of Ideation. But if you get old hostels like H6 or H7, the infrastructure is not that good. The rooms were originally for single occupancy and were later converted into double occupancies, resulting in less space for you and your roommate.
Faculty: Talking about the Mathematics department of IISERB, it's quite controversial. The department has a good number of faculty members, but the quality may vary. The students opting for a Maths major are very few compared to other departments. Many students, even some good ones, face academic issues after opting for a major in Mathematics. The primary reason is some rude professors and their strict marking system. Backlog students are much more in the Maths department, making it produce fewer graduates each year than other departments.
Other: I chose the course because I am pursuing Science as my career. The best thing about the BSMS program is that students get to know the ground realities of Science, such as how things are discovered or how research is done. One might want to check the details of each faculty member they are interested in pursuing a major with. According to the specialties of the topics one wants to do a thesis in, they can either join IISERB or another institution.
