I'm satisfied because of good course and campus life.

Placements: At present there's no placement cell in our college, that's why no one got placement. Mostly after BSMS Integrated, students go for higher courses like Ph.D. in India and foreign countries. Some students go for different studies like MBA, civil services, etc. Students are allowed to take internships from anywhere of their choice. The institute didn't offer internships, it's students' choice.

Infrastructure: This college is newly constructed and everything here is advanced and up to date with all advanced technology and fully furnished. World-class facilities are available on campus. We have a fully functional lecture complex. Wi-Fi is available on campus. Labs and classrooms are equipped with advanced technologies and all safety things. Facilities available in the hostel include Wi-Fi, our personal almirah, a bed, and a study table. We have 24*7 electricity and water (hot could be normal)facility. Washrooms are clean and the water filter is available. Quality of food in mess is good. We have our wellness clinic, sports complex ground, and gym too.

Faculty: All faculty members here are experienced in the research field and are very helpful in our academic and research life. They are qualified from best colleges and completed their higher qualification in foreign countries mostly. About the course curriculum, the course is developing and getting better year by year and lots of new subjects are getting included in our curriculum. It makes students industry-ready. The semester exams are not hard, it's easy to moderate. Pass percentage depends on batch total marks. The relative grading is the criteria here.

Other: I chose this course because of my own interest in and passion for research. It's near to IIT Tirupati and it is 31 km from Tirupati. The state bus is there and good connectivity is there, so no issues regarding it. Campus is not much crowded. One can apply for the NSP scholarship or INSPIRE. There are more scholarships too. Fest is held every year. Every festival is celebrated here.

A great college for research aspirants.

Placements: The thing is that this is a research college and as we know, our research development is increasing but slow, and placement is not available here. Not only IISER Tirupati; in fact, no IISER has placement. Few have but only for some specific courses.

Infrastructure: This college is newly constructed and everything is advanced and fully furnished. No issues are here on campus. World-class facilities are available in our college with every advanced thing. Classrooms and lecture halls are there, which have boards, e-boards, wifi, cameras, projector and everything. Labs are world-class with cutting-edge technologies. Fully air-conditioned classes, lecture halls and labs are there. The library is currently temporary; the permanent one is under construction. We have all the books and references here. Hostels are well made and every facilities is present, like 24*7 electricity, hot and cold water in bathrooms, wifi and talking about our room, two students in one room is the accommodation rule. We have our separate almirah study tables shelf bed everything. No AC or cooler in rooms. We have two mess, North Indian and South Indian mess. Pay-in-eat basis is the rule. Food are tasty as compared to other colleges but a bit expensive too.

Faculty: Yes, the teachers are helpful and very knowledgeable. Well qualified and completed PhD and postdoctoral from reputed colleges. Teaching quality is nice and awesome but the real study is self study so with professors teaching, students also have to focus. The course curriculum is very nice and each year it is getting better and more comfortable. Semester exams are not too difficult. Questions are mostly applied types in research. Relative grading is the marking rule.

Other: This college is newly constructed and well developed as compared to other IISER. The second thing is that professor and lab are outstanding. I am pursuing major in biology and here every faculties is of outstanding level. Campus is near the hills and talking about connectivity. This campus is 31 km far from Tirupati. But we have state transportation so no problems in that. Events and fests are there. Campus crowd is less than 1300+ people's are there currently.

Friendly faculty, nice infrastructure, and newly furnished hostels .

Placements: The course doesn't offer placements yet; it's working on making a placement cell soon. But the course is good enough to get a Ph.D. or fellowship easily and gives enough nice exposure too. Students can give exams like CSIR NET or can directly be appointed as research assistants too.

Infrastructure: We have nice AC classrooms with six blackboards and one projector screen in each class. The classes are in gallery view. Institute provides Wi-Fi too. Classrooms other than lecture halls are also provided for tutorial sessions. We have 2 small functional libraries as of now, which will soon be shifted to the new library building. And we have the best UG labs in India with the best equipment and machines. Mess food is also okay. We have two mess in the dining building. One is a north Indian mess run by SRRC caterers, and one is a south Indian mess run by Mookambika caterers. We also have a clinic and an ambulance facility in the same building. We also have a sports complex, which is almost complete and soon to be furnished and started.

Faculty: Faculty is really nice, experienced, and friendly. Curriculum is too apt for a research institute. The semester exams are based on what's taught in the class, and grading is relatively here. Half of the median of the class marks is considered as passing marks.

Other: Best for people interested in research areas. We have IISM and IICM annually. The fest Vivante is also organized along with many other occasions every year.

Great faculty and lots of opportunities to learn. Good hostel and mess facilities.

Placements: IISER Tirupati provides several placement training programs to enhance students' skills. These programs include workshops, seminars, guest lectures, and industrial visits. Mock interviews and group discussions are conducted to refine students' abilities.

Infrastructure: The permanent campus is still under construction, but the campus is well functioning along with the mess. Most of the facilities are available on campus, and students can reach their faculty at any time, at least through emails.

Faculty: The faculty are very experienced and helpful, and they go out of their way to help us succeed academically. For the first three semesters, we all take the same courses, and then we choose a major starting in the fourth semester. We also have semester projects starting in the fifth semester, and we need to maintain a minimum GPA to move on to the next semester. Overall, I'm really happy with the education I'm getting at IISER Tirupati.

Other: I really like this college. It's great for research people. The faculty and Ph.D. students are very helpful to the BSMS students. Students can access the lab any time they want with the permission of the faculty.

Good for research oriented people, average placements, good infrastructure.

Placements: Our college is not really about placements. Most of the students here opt to pursue Ph.D. in India or foreign after the course. Though, some opt for some R and D jobs which have an average LPA of 10 lacs. People also go for MBA and other research roles in the industry only. Some take up teaching careers but it's rare.

Infrastructure: Hostels being new are of top class quality at a double sharing basis. We have good bathrooms as well as ventilation facilities. Wi-Fi is also good but to be precise it's survival. Classrooms, as it is an Indian institution is of top class quality. As the campus was recently constructed there are some difficulties in maintenance but overall it's fine. We have two small library and the big library is yet to be opened with a good collection of books. Sports complex and grounds are of good quality including football, cricket, badminton, tennis etc. Canteen is based on pay and east system and has good quality food.

Faculty: Faculty is the main highlight of the college. All the faculties are Ph.D. holders and are highly qualified. Course structure is very diverse and open. There is no restriction or limitation in choosing the major and it's not restricted to one either. Open course work is highly recommended for students who wish to research and learn more. Exams are also based on real life research.

Overall, IISER Tirupati is a good college for research.

Placements: IISER Tirupati is more focused on research than placements and thus does not have a placement cell. Most students opt to pursue a Ph.D. either abroad or in India with a good stipend. Those who do not wish to continue in research typically go for off-campus placements.

Infrastructure: Hostels have spacious rooms with double sharing. The washrooms are well-maintained and clean. The mess operates on a pay-and-eat system, and there is also a cafeteria. A sports complex is under construction and will be completed soon. There is a gym in both the girls' and boys' hostels.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and qualified, often giving advice for further research. They are ready to solve our doubts whenever possible. The course curriculum leans slightly towards pure mathematics rather than applied mathematics, although efforts have been made to coordinate courses with nearby IITs to make up for this. The exams are quite difficult, and the pass percentage usually depends on each professor.
