3Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

It has really good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: Ours is the first batch of B.Tech (earlier it was BS in engineering sciences), so the on-campus placements are average for now and are still developing. Off-campus opportunities are quite good if we actively apply and build skills in our respective fields.

Infrastructure: Rooms are a little tiny, but the hostel facilities are respectable, clean, and well-kept, with a free Wi-Fi facility. The mess food is mediocre, and the prices seem fair considering what they offer. A free-of-cost 24x7 medical center is available. There is a shopping complex, which meets the needs of all basic necessities. In general, students who desire a structured environment can benefit from the infrastructure and support system.

Faculty: Teachers are more than helpful and are available whenever we need. Each course comprises 15-20 teaching assistants and PhD holders. They are always ready to clear all our doubts whenever needed. The exam system is well-structured. It conducts 3 quizzes (best of two are considered), a mid-semester exam, and an end-semester exam. Academics are good, balanced, and somewhat strict. For those who desire both discipline and exploration opportunities, it is worthwhile. '

Good college with nice faculty and facilities but placements are less.

Placements: Placements are good but not best as IIsers are not so old and research institute. They do not provide placements to all students but compared to all Science colleges in India not engineering colleges it is best. Top companies hire students. The package is also good approximately 14LPA as median for BSMS students and internship opportunities are excellent. Every 3 students out of 5 get atleast one internship in their course period.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is excellent all facilities are provided, it gives you a vibe that you are studying in a top college in country. Classrooms are modern, and top level labs are here like IITS and IISC. Medical facility is also top notch and a maintained hostel and mess are present.

Faculty: Teachers are also top notch, well qualified and the best in their field. Course curriculum is relevant and up to date but follows a classical way of approaching Science. Semester exams are generally difficult its even become hard to just pass the course.

Other: Academics Events fests and campus life are all good but placements and scholarship opportunities are less. The level of education is best.

I am grateful to study in a premium institute like mine.

Infrastructure: It is not top-notch but should be ranked higher like IITs and NITs. Hostel rooms are nice with most facilities you need. There are no restrictions for late coming and for night owls like me. The most peaceful and joyful thing is the freedom you get.

Faculty: It depends on the professor. Some have absolute grading, and some have relative grading. Sometimes, they give marks in quizzes but make midsem papers tougher than ever. If I look back at JEE questions, they seem very simple. We are just not good enough to solve them. Here, courses are well organized. We do experiments in the lab related to our theoretical courses. Also, professors are very cool. They teach in innovative ways and make the question papers application-based.

Other: I am in a research college, students are less enthusiastic, but it is still a better organization. My favorite subjects are learning and lab work. I am from the 2024 batch and want to pursue my major in Physics (Optics).

A college where I started my life and career, and it was my best choice.

Placements: Our college is more focused on research, so mostly people from IISER go for Ph.D. It will enrich their profile so if you are enthusiastic to explore the side of research, it's best to choose this. The one who is looking for a job doesn't fit here. There are placements but less compared to IITs.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is pretty good. I do not expect the course to be this much interesting and helpful in my career path. Hostels are good but 2 sharing rooms. The area and facilities are eco-friendly. Best thing is we will get IISER Wi-Fi almost everywhere so there is no need to charge extra GB for that.

Faculty: Teachers are so friendly and approachable. We can express any doubts about our course, path, and all. Always staying interactive with them is the key to having a good connection with professors at IISER Bhopal. In my experience, these are the things I love to tell everyone about my IISER life.

Other: A lot of sports facilities are available here.

A good space for students with a curious and a patient mindset.

Placements: As the placement cell of this college is still in its primitive stage, one should not expect direct placements from the college itself. Also, it is a research college; it doesn't give job-ready degrees like B.Teach and all. However, upcoming batches are also getting B.Teach, so we will see what is there in the future. You can always go off-campus; however, very few companies have visited in the past that offered 5-8 LPA on average, and to be honest, there is no reliable data for placements. You can expect on-campus placements for mass recruiting companies like TCS and Infosys.

Infrastructure: College infrastructure, rooms, hostel, library, and mess are decent and could be considered top-notch by many. It has high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity throughout the college. Labs here are very good, as expected in a college of research. We have 10 classrooms, which are going to increase as a new lecture hall is proposed. Other than 7 hostels, 2 more are under construction. A new research facility for sustainable tech is also being built. The campus size is over 200 acres, which is large. We have a health center, a shopping center, and a sports area for every game here.

Faculty: The curriculum is overall research-driven, and for UG students, we get the first 2 years to study the overall subjects of pure science. After that, we get to choose our major, increasing the flexibility and relevance of the course. Faculty members here are very supportive and motivating; however, not everyone will like it here. Semester exams for students other than the 1st year are tough, as one should expect in an academically rigorous course.

Other: If you want to have knowledge of pure sciences and would like to grow your career in academia, nothing else would be a better space than IISER. You will gain tons of knowledge, where you can grow your skills and put them to use. The crowd here is from all over India; you will celebrate every festival India celebrates. You are not going to be bored in college; there is always something good or bad happening. Be different from the herd and choose what you want.

The best faculty members ever I could imagine for pursuing my passion in my course.

Placements: IISERB is primarily a research institute so it does not focus on placement like that. But it does provide placement in BS Eng that is now changed into B.Tech. The average package is 17 LPA- 18 LPA. Companies like TCS Research, Adobe, MathWorks, and IBM Research.

Infrastructure: Hostel is average to good. We get double occupancy rooms in a hostel with a good Wi-Fi facility. It has a wide spectrum of labs spanning Biology, Physics, Maths data, Science, and Applied Medical Tech. Classrooms are well spacious. Library is good too.

Faculty: Teachers in IISER are well-qualified they all are done with their Ph.D. from well-renowned universities. They teach a course curriculum that is going to be relevant for future case. They do make the students industry-ready. Semester exams are quite difficult.

Other: I chose this course because I have been interested in this thing since childhood. Fests are not that good but it's quite enjoyable. The campus crowd is good, students are so intelligent and good.
