Professional behavior of Dr. Rajendra Kurapati of IISER TVM.

Placements: Only a few students from Physics or Math are given opportunities to work in companies and most of them apply for a Ph.D. The new placement cell that was set up in 2022 offers internship opportunities. The credentials of each student are the most important factor in them getting a Ph.D. position abroad. The titles of the institute, IISER, might not help if the student has low grades, and they must strive to keep their CGPA above 7.0 at least for a chance to get admitted into universities in the US. I felt that the average students (CGPA 7.5–8.5) in each department would get admitted to universities in the US with a QS rank of 300–900, which is pretty low. There is a high level of competition among students and achieving good grades is very difficult.

Infrastructure: The hostels had good facilities and were kept clean. There were problems with Wi-Fi connectivity in the past, but now new routers have been installed on every floor. The BSMS students reside in hostels that are located far away from the academic section and the rest of the campus and therefore accessibility to other places is limited.

Faculty: The professors are knowledgeable but the teaching quality depends on each professor. Some are good and some are not. If you want to pursue pure science, then this place is very good and has a good curriculum. I don't think it makes a student industry-ready, but it prepares them for Ph.D. applications. The exams are extremely competitive and students pass with a D grade. Depending on the course, the number of students who didn't pass could be around 20% for the toughest to 4% for the least toughest courses. Course difficulty depends on the professors; some give previous-year questions, some don't.

Other: The courses are affordable, and the crowd is alright, with extremely helpful seniors who don't rag or bully. There are some professors who display abusive behavior. For example, Dr. Rajendra Kurapati. I worked under this professor for a year and experienced instances where I was bullied, publicly humiliated, targeted and abused. I was harassed by a Ph.D. called Mahesh ML in this lab and the proof not only victim-blamed me but also gaslit me and tried to suppress me. He would have fits of range for the smallest of mistakes and always stir up drama. The Ph.D.s in the biomaterials lab are extremely gossipy and almost never talk about science. This lab was the worst in terms of a healthy work environment. The proof always engages in favoritism, where he assigns one student to get credit for many papers but bullies and lashes out at the rest of the people.

This is a good institute if you are interested in research.

Placements: For Masters, students are eligible from the 4th semester for placements. A large number of companies will visit and a maximum number of students are placed every year. The highest package is 10 lakh per year. And the average package is 3 lacs per year. More than 90 percent of students are placed every year. I am trying to get placed in a good company.

Infrastructure: Hostel Facilities: The hostel rooms are shared rooms for two. It consists of 2 beds, 1 almirah, 2 study tables, and 2 cupboards. Every room has a free, high-speed internet connection, both wired and wireless. The meals in the mess won't meet our expectations but they're tolerable. Since it's a residential campus, no one is allowed to stay outside campus.

Faculty: Course Curriculum Overview: This is my favorite subject. There are students from every corner of India; some are from the north and some are from the south. Some are from the far east and some are from the west. The student-teacher ratio is good at 45:1. The faculty members are qualified, and some hold doctorate degrees in their subjects. This is a 2-year course of 4 semesters and the exam level is between medium and hard.
