IISER PUNE is one of the leading science institutions of the country.
Placements: Most students opt for higher studies in Ivy League Colleges. Only 30% of students go for alternatives like industry jobs, government jobs, or MBAs.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure and hostel facilities are top-notch in IISER Pune. Wi-Fi is available everywhere on the campus except in hostels. Websites like Instagram and some other websites are blocked over the Wi-Fi network. Food quality is good. There are two mess. All kinds of sports facilities are available on the campus.

Beyond the classroom: Life at IISER Pune.
Placements: IISER mainly focuses on the overall learning and practical experience of the students, mainly in research in pure sciences field so placement opportunities are relatively low in IISER PUNE. Top roles include data analyst, scientific researcher, analyst, industrial research and development, etc.
Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are moderate in the hostels; hygiene is regularly maintained, such that appointed staff daily clean corridors, washrooms and common rooms. WiFi is available on the ground floor of the hostel and some of the common rooms. Labs are top-tier, as they are specifically made for research purposes. All up-to-date instruments are present. Classrooms are big, air-conditioned, and of good quality to focus on the lectures. The library contains all the relevant and extracurricular materials.
Faculty: Yes, the professors are really educated and really helpful in solving any doubts and there are teacher assistant, which further help in doubts. The course is very relevant to the current real-world applications I wouldn't say industry-ready, as it's not an engineering college. The semester exam difficulty level lies in between moderate and tough. Relative grading is the system for passing and failing. You have to score more than half of the class median to pass the course.
Other: I chose this course as I wanted to do pure research in the sciences. The best thing about the course is you learn a lot and you get the real-world picture of what the advances in sciences are. Mess food can be improved. Events are no less, as there are several throughout the year for extra fun activities for students like the annual test Karvaan, cultural fests, freshers party, etc.

IISER Pune- An escape from being introvert .
Placements: Less than 1 percent of students get placed every year as the placement cell is newly formed and it does not provide enough assistance for placements right now. And the only placement that it offers is into IT companies. So students with other disciplines do not get placed.
Infrastructure: IISER Pune is a fully residential campus with all the modern amenities like Wi-Fi, state-of-the art labs, and libraries. The classrooms are sufficient to host 300 students at a time. The hostel is well-equipped with modern facilities like Wi-Fi, 24/7 hot showers, and drinking water. Canteen serves nutritious and hygienic meals with multiple options. The campus has various courts for different sports activities, including a gym.
Faculty: The faculty were very knowledgeable and helpful in providing students with proper mentorship. The BSMS course is well designed to pursue knowledge in various interdisciplinary areas in the first two years, followed by specialization in the respective discipline of interest.
Other: Apart from academia, it provides the best environment for becoming socially active through various extracurricular activities from various clubs. It holds various events and festivals throughout the year that help in engaging students with other stuff.

The whole system is based on research .
Placements: Less placement is available because many would prefer to pursue a Ph.D. The best courses on campus are Chemistry and Biology. Everything is available, including lab training and projects during the semester. Many private companies, like Serum and Biotech, will invest in research.
Infrastructure: The hostel and infrastructure of the campus are very good. There is a common room for group studies, a pantry for cooking, washing machines for laundry, and a Padcare center for females. Ambulence is available on campus for emergencies. The rooms are well-equipped, and there is a reading desk.
Faculty: Every faculty member at IISER is a scientist with extensive research experience. They have collaborated with foreign institutes for research as well. Semester exams are difficult to medium, depending on the students. We can work on semester projects during the semester and access the lab at any time.
Other: I want to do research and publish my paper. I would recommend that everyone have guidance for the semester from seniors to choose the right path. Their review is essential. There will be college fests, and scholarships are also available, such as NSP, KVPY, NET, etc.
