Review of Master of Science in the field of Physics.

Placements: Depending upon the field, the number of recruiting companies arriving would vary. For the Master of Science in Physics the count of companies arrived would be 28. Out of 6 to 7 companies only a few are average recruiters. The rest of them are top recruiters like Acsia Technologies, Genrobotics, Light Logics Holography, Optics, etc.

Faculty: Professors with the best grades and years of experience are preferred for any of the disciplines rather than those with less experience and lower grades. Professors' lesson plans are very satisfying and exclusively taken from a highly standardized syllabus to get the best professional knowledge.

Other: I would have waited a year to get admission for my master's programme in IISER, Thiruvananthapuram, due to huge competition and other limitation factors. So getting seats is not as easy as we think, we work hard to enjoy the beneficial life of IISER. The best part of our institute is the freedom of students in their more interesting path, but the focus on academics is a must.

They truly justified their roles, like providing complete assistance even in a pinch. There will be regularity in the conduct of tests and exams.

A good college if you're looking for a change of environment.

Placements: For sure, there is some lagging in the placement process for the discipline of Master of Science. The lowest package offered was very low, below 3 LPA, which is quite hard to digest. The average package was also below 4 LPA.

Infrastructure: Students from various regions joined IISER Thiruvananthapuram for various reasons, but most of the common reasons were a change of environment. The most challenging thing was that it was very difficult to adapt to the food in this environment. Frequent bus facilities are available within the college area.

Faculty: Professors immediately contact our parents and report our weekly activities over the phone. Therefore, it's very important to maintain good academic performance in the regular tests conducted by them. If we perform well academically, professors also encourage us to pursue our interests in extracurricular activities.
