There are several courses which are offered by the IISER Kolkata . In my opinion department of the physical sciences is best in the IISER Kolkata why because this IISER is reputed for physical sciences . And along with you can also go with the other courses like BS-MS in biological sciences and BS-MS in chemical sciences and also BS-MS in easrch sciences. These four courses are the best top rated courses which are offered by IISER Kolkata .
Along with these there are several other courses like BS-MS in geography, mathematics.etc.
Forget about all these just pursue what your heart wants not what your eyes catches

Campus placements of IISER is good. Many of the students are exploring their interest in the Science field in several reputed places like DRDO, ISRO, BARC, TIFR .etc. It also provides internship to the students who are interested in both the public and private sectors. In addition this institute also provides the summer internships for the students to encourage them.
When coming to the salary for the B.Sc students the average annual package is INR 8 Lakhs. You must also need to secure 60 % of the score in your academic years. But keeping the salary aside these institutions are providing the best campus placements for the students.
