It has amazing infrastructure and really good facilities.

Placements: Many students, after completing their master opt for a PhD internationally and pursue it. A very few percentage go for a job and get placements. Since it is a research college, students join it with the aim of pursuing that instead of aiming for placements.

IISER Bhopal: A place for bright minds to thrive.

Placements: As the course is more focused on research, so PhD positions are more encouraged. Alumni get PhD positions all over the world, including any prestigious institutes. The majority of students opt for a PhD and many still opt for industry positions. Both are well supported. Placements are quite low for the BSMS course.

IISER Bhopal - A passionate scientists dream place.

Placements: Most of the students do not choose to go for placements, and choose to continue with Ph.D. As such, there is no official placement data. But the estimated average salary package ranges from 4 LPA - 8 LPA. Generally in academics, students choose to do internships in other institutes rather than companies. There is also no such data provided, but many students do internships by talking directly to the faculty members via email.

Really good faculty members, improving infrastructure and more opportunities to research.

Placements: IISER Bhopal is more or less a college that focuses more on research than placements. Placements are very few—nearly less than 10 percent. Since IISER Bhopal is the only IISER offering an engineering degree, a few of them opt for placements, and a very few from natural science go for placements. Others normally choose a Ph.D. and continue with postdoctoral work and research. I guess the packages are often within 30 LPA or more. I am not sure about the minimum offered. As research is one of the m...

Overall, the best college for Ph.D. in Mathematics courses.

Placements: Placements on campus were good in 2023, but as it's a research institute, it's bad beyond that, and most students move on to pursue higher degrees instead of jobs. However, the highest salary package offered is 23 LPA, while the lowest salary package offered is 18 LPA. Companies like Morgan Stanley, IBM, Microsoft, and others visit here to hire. Top positions include science writers and quantitative analysts. A lot of students secured internships.

Placements: As this is a research institute, IISER Bhopal does not have a significant number of students getting placed into companies from natural sciences. However, there is a good number of Ph.D. placements made from here. Even though students here have taken for granted their place in the industry due to the Indian Institute tag. A significant number of students go to different fields even unrelated to science. But there are not much of many engineering equivalent placements and that is pretty obvious a...
