NISER Bhubaneswar for M.Sc. course admission.

Placements: This college has the best placement facilities available, but it is not for everyone because there is a condition for participating in the placement required, 50% marks are compulsory in your final exam. The salary offered ranges from 2 LPA to 5 LPA, but these companies do not offer any roles to students.

Infrastructure: This college has good hostel facilities, and they are similar to facilities in the college departments. These facilities like classrooms, hostel rooms, bathrooms, labs, fast Wi-Fi, elevators, etc. Sports and game facilities are also available every year.

Faculty: This college faculty members are very strict, but teachers are very intelligent and have good behavior towards students. Teachers in this college are Ph.D. scholars and provide good teaching knowledge of the subject. The course curriculum is relevant, and the passing marks score is not difficult.

NISER looks good from the outside but disappoints from the inside.

Placements: Mostly, students go for a PhD and not for placements. The lowest package ranges from 6-7 LPA. The highest package ranges from 20-30 LPA. Almost 90% of students get internships here. If we want to get a job, then we can go into various industries, but a PhD is recommended, and after that, we will get more job opportunities.

Infrastructure: Top-class facilities are available. It also provides world-class labs. Wi-Fi is available with a speed of 10-15 Mbps. In the hostel, LAN is available with a speed of 350-400 Mbps. Mess food is the worst here. Medical facilities are given. Almost all sports are available with the best cricket ground.

Faculty: Teachers are very qualified and knowledgeable. The course curriculum is good. The only problem here is with Maths subjects as teachers tend to fail us so we have to give our 100% to just barely pass. Semester exams are very difficult, and quizzes are taken regularly. The pass percentage is around 60-70%.

Other: There are no major events here. I honestly feel food should be improved and Maths can be made easier for 1st year students.

Really good campus for enjoying life with freedom from anyone.

Placements: No direct placements offered by any company, but most of the time, students go for higher studies in other institutions or private companies internationally. So, students looking for placements should search for a job personally after college.

Infrastructure: Good, everything is very good. Wi-Fi speed goes to the moon in a few minutes, but fluctuates sometimes. It's okay, no data limit, infinite data. Labs are good, international-level university. Hostel is good, but the single room is small for one person. The two-person room is good with space available.

Faculty: Good, very intelligent professors. All international scientists attend conferences every year around the world. Teaching quality is top class, and the curriculum is strong for building good scientists for the future of the human race and ethical purposes.

Good infrastructure and research support.

Placements: Most of them are pursuing a PhD in prestigious universities in India or abroad. There is not a placement cell as such, but I am pursuing my PhD in Canada with an annual stipend of INR 15 Lakh per annum. For my department (chemistry), it was mainly Macleod Pharmaceuticals.

Infrastructure: Everything that a private college can provide, NISER provided. They have a huge funding from the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India. The hostel was way above par with regard to government institutes. The food is also very good, and there are a lot of options for every type of diet.

Faculty: Some of them are the most prominent scientists in their fields. Maybe due to that, the lower-level courses are hard to teach for them, but for research purposes, this institute is one of the top in the country. The course closely follows UGC guidelines, but the Institute make tweeks where necessary and beneficial for the students.

Other: Every Integrated MSc student gets 5000 INR per month as a scholarship and another 20000 INR for summer or winter internships done in NISER or other institutes in India.

It is a really good campus to be part of and has a great community.

Placements: No direct placements are offered by any company, but most of the students choose to study after the course. Good recommendations from high-level faculty give you chances for internships and Ph.D. positions at top international universities and labs around the world.

Infrastructure: Labs and classrooms are very good, with air conditioning in every department. The library is very big, with lots of books available offline; an online library is also available. The hostel canteen food is not that good in quality, but there are options like veg curry, paneer curry, and non-veg curries such as chicken curry, egg curry, and fish curry available daily.

Faculty: Teachers and faculty here are highly educated and professional. Many of them have great respect in their fields and are internationally known for research and collaborative work with top facilities around the globe. Courses are easy to pass but not easy to score good grades; you have to work hard.

Very good college with very negligible fees. Good faculty and infrastructure.

Placements: There are no direct placements in our college. Students usually have to apply for jobs or PhD on their own. Most of the people pursue PhD after this course, but many also try for different competitive exams. For internships, it's the same: students have to apply by themselves and get internships at different institutes here or abroad, or in any company. Top roles like JRF, SRF, PhD Fellow, are some of the most common.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very well-facilitated, but if you compare it with other national institutes like IITs and similar colleges, you may find the infrastructure less appreciable, apart from labs and classrooms. The library is the best part of this institute. The hostel is good, apart from some maintenance issues. The food is average to below average. Medical facilities are good. Sports and games facilities are average but are improving slowly.

Faculty: Teachers are very good, apart from some (like in any other institute). The teaching quality is also good. The course curriculum is more focused on research and makes students ready for research. Exams are medium-difficult, and if you at least study some of the syllabus and attend classes regularly, you can pass easily. Passing is usually 30/100, but it could be changed by your professor.

Other: I chose this because I wanted to become a scientist. The best thing is they teach with respect to research, not just what has already been discovered, but also how it was done, what experiments were performed, with the whole history, at least in biology they teach like this. Some of the core courses are too difficult or not relevant for some students. 5k/month is given to all the students, but if a student has any backlog or CGPA falls below 6, then the student is terminated. The student could continue if these criteria are met. Fests are below average, and not much funding is given for fests. The campus is located in a town that is not much developed. If you have to do some work, you have to travel to Bhubaneswar (BBSR), which is approximately 20-25 km from the campus.
