IISER Bhopal: A sweet and nice campus.

Placements: Here, there are no placements. People are more interested in Ph.D. They take the recommendation and go abroad to pursue a Ph.D. Some of them started to apply to various companies to have a good salary and to maintain a work-life balance.

Infrastructure: Here, we have all facilities. After the Ph.D, single rooms are allotted. For one person, there is a bed, cupboard, and study table. Our library is very nice and peaceful. All types of books are kept there. The seating arrangement is also nice.

Faculty: All teachers are very nice, helpful, and knowledgeable. The course is designed with proficiency. Each semester, there is a mid-semester and end-semester. It depends on teachers. There are no quizzes. Exams are moderately difficult.

Good college having a diverse reach in academic focus, faculty infrastructure is good fees is high.

Placements: I don't have much idea as my course Msc in mathematics doesn't have any placement goals but as per my knowledge few departments offer placements and they are decent , I am not too much sure about lpas but courses here are good with a wide range of faculty and expertise and exposure

Infrastructure: Course infrastructure and labs wifi classrooms library all are top notch also hostel 8 in which I live is a dream hostel newly made and we'll equipped. The games facility mess and sports facilities are also good but need to improve especially sports

Faculty: Faculty of maths department is impressive with a wide range of expertise but in my curriculum Ms thesis isn't offered that's a genuine drawback but exams and other courses curriculum ar relevant and good also passing percentage is very good rarely any exception is seen.

Other: I chose the course as a couple of number theory courses are offered also a science oriented atmosphere is there, people and there intrest revolve around science and research thats really motivating also campus is beautiful crowd fest are good as well but connectivity is an issue roads connecting main city is not that devoloped and costly as well also bhopal is very far from campus only convenient way to commute is auto services
