Great college. Faculty members are well-educated and experts in their field.
Placements: Good placement. Average 28 Lacs per annum, medium 25 Lacs per annum, the lowest 18 Lacs per annum, and the highest 38 Lacs per annum. 100% placement in B.Start and M.Start branches. Nice internship opportunities for banking and finance fields. Nice in-hand salary when compared to CTC.
Infrastructure: Nice hostel, different for different streams. Mess available. Single rooms. One fan, one table, one bed. One bathroom shared by two. 30-acre campus, enough for the number of students studying. AC classrooms. Proper academic infrastructure, and the curriculum is up to date.
Faculty: Teachers are well-educated, having Ph.D.s from foreign institutions, and are real experts in the field. The curriculum is very market-friendly, useful for higher studies and placements. Students get interested and want to learn from the teachers and their way of interaction.

Bachelor of Statistical Data Science (Hons) - Batch of 2028
4.4
5Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money
ISI Kolkata BSDS (Hons.) Programme.
Placements: Our batch is the first batch of BSDS course, hence there is no placement record available as of now because we will be the first graduation batch. But taking into consideration the placements of other courses, ISI has nearly 100% track record in all of them. Last year the highest package was 63 LPA and last to last year it was 89 LPA for MS QROR and MS QE courses respectively. The top companies visiting the campus are Adobe, Morgan Stanley, TCS, Cognizant, FAANG Companies, etc.
Infrastructure: For Bachelor of Statistical Data Science course, there is no hostel accommodation in any of the locations Kolkata, Bangalore, or Delhi. The classrooms are well-equipped with all the modern facilities like Wi-Fi, speakers, and projectors for the hybrid nature of the course. The quality of the mess food is quite good as expected from a hostel mess. The menu covers both North Indian and South Indian food styles.
Faculty: The faculty here are very much well-experienced in their particular field of research and they have many publications in highly reputed journals. The course is quite relevant for making students industry-ready in the field of data science. The semester exams are quite difficult in the sense that one cannot pass exams just by studying one day for the night like engineering colleges. Proper efforts need to be put in to get good grades as there is no relative grading system.
Other: I chose this course because it was a perfect blend of Maths and Computer Science. The course would have been better if it was in proper offline mode rather than being in hybrid mode. The campus life *** because there are not many events, the gender ratio is less, and in general, there is nobody to talk to casually.

ISI Kolkata - Bachelor of Statistical Data Science (Hons).
Placements: Our course was launched this year only and we will be the first graduation batch in 2028. According to placement scenario here at ISI Kolkata, almost everyone who opts for placements gets placed. The highest salary package offered last year was 63 LPA from MS QROR course. Top recruiters are BlackRock, TCS, Optiver, Morgan Stanley, and FAANG companies. Top roles are research analyst roles for data analysis.
Infrastructure: Classrooms have good modern-day facilities like Wi-Fi. Speakers and projectors are also there in the class. Library is too huge and has online OPAC also for e-resources. Hostel facilities are not available for BSDS students. But others have hostel facilities and it's quite good as it is single occupancy. Mess facilities are also well as expected from a hostel mess. Sports facilities are limited.
Faculty: Faculty members here are very knowledgeable in their fields. Almost everyone is either an alumnus of ISI or a Ph.D holder from IVY league. The course curriculum is relevant for almost anyone having an interest in Maths and Computer Science. In the first 2 years, the course is mathematics intensive and in the last 2 years, it is computer/data science intensive. Semester exams are difficult and one needs to study whole year to get good grades as there is no CGPA system.
Other: Gender ratio is bad, and funding people to talk causally is too hard here.
