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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

Great professors and I loved the chemistry department.

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.

Detailed information about IISER Bhopal.

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.

The campus life is the best.

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.

It has great research options and facilities, but limited placement support and industry readiness.

Faculty: At IISER Bhopal, teachers are helpful and knowledgeable. They guide students well. The course curriculum is good, but it focuses more on academics and research, so not all students become fully industry-ready. Semester exams are tough, but with proper preparation, most students pass exams. The pass percentage is high, and it is around 80-90%.

Great overall college for fundamental sciences and engineering research.

Faculty: Professors are quite helpful and experts in their field. In my department, all of them are really passionate about teaching. The teaching quality is on par with the best institutes in this country. Course curriculum, for the pov of a math degree, is way ahead of its time and quite updated, the electives are quite good and diverse. I won't say they are the best of sorts if someone wants to join the industry but they can help with the problem-solving acumen. No fixed passing grade. Semester exams ...

It has amazing infrastructure and really good facilities.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified. The course curriculum is designed to be able to compete with the best colleges internationally. The exam difficulty level depends on the professors choice. The course curriculum is made interdisciplinary and would make us ready with the overall knowledge.

IISER Bhopal: A place for bright minds to thrive.

Faculty: Faculty members are highly qualified, and a majority of them have experience from abroad. They are very helpful and knowledgeable about their fields. Teaching quality is great for all courses. The course curriculum starts with a wide range of subjects, which narrows down to one major subject of the student's choice. Semester exams are not very difficult. The pass percentage is 95%.

IISER Bhopal - A passionate scientists dream place.

Faculty: Teachers are very qualified, all holding at least a Ph.D. post doctorate from internationally reputed universities. They are easy to approach and friendly. Teaching quality is good. Course curriculum is very relevant, and an example of this is that the final year has no coursework, only a masters thesis to adapt students better to current science breakthroughs, and possibly also industry-relevant according to their thesis area. Semester exams are generally moderate-easy in difficult, but sometim...

It is a really great college for research aspirants.

Faculty: Faculty members are highly qualified and experienced scientists. Their teaching methods are excellent. These courses are not designed for the industry but prepare us for research in pure science. The semester exams are not very difficult if you attend classes regularly. The pass percentage is relatively high and depends on the batch's performance.

A complete overview of IISER Bhopal.

Faculty: The professors are highly qualified and really helpful. Most of them have done Ph.D. and Post Docs from abroad in top colleges. They are very professional and welcome everyone to solve their doubts. They put effort into making us understand the topics they are teaching. Although the exams are slightly on the tougher side, given the efforts the professor puts in, one can do it.

IISER Bhopal isn't the place for a typical B.Tech in Computer Science or Electrical. They're more into pure sciences and research stuff. You'll find BS-MS dual degrees, a BS in Engineering Sciences, and integrated PhD programs there—not the regular engineering tracks. If you're aiming for a classic

If you are a biology student you must have pcb as your subjects but the B.Tech at IISER bhopal or at any college in India does require maths as a compulsory subject
