Not, National Institute of Science Education and Research (NISER) Bhubaneswar does not come under the programme of CUET (Common University Entrance Test) in India.

Integrated BSc and MSc placements are generally high at NISER Bhubaneswar, especially with the Science graduates who are taking the path toward research or academics.
They do not market themselves as placement-oriented like engineering colleges, but one sees students at NISER joining elite institutions such as TIFR, IISc, and some foreign institutions into their Ph.D. programs, availing monthly stipends between INR 30,000 to 50,000. Industry placements are not very frequent, but some students take up positions in data science, analytics, or envision teaching, where packages range from INR 6 to 8 LPA.

The latest cutoff for the Ph.D. admissions at the National Institute of Science Education and Research (NISER) Bhubaneswar will completely depend on the entrance examination scores and the performance during the interview.
Atypical criterion, as of now, March 28, 2025, would refer to a candidate possessing a valid score in the JEST or GATE or CSIR-UGC NET exam because the cutoffs differ among several disciplines (e.g., Physics, Biology). For instance, a GATE score going beyond 300 and a NET rank below 200 forms hugely competitive ranges.

Selection to the Ph.D. in Biological Sciences at NISER is through fulfilling the education requirement and national exam performances, such as GATE, JEST, GPAT, CSIR NET, or ICMR JRF. These shortlisted candidates have to face a written test and/or interview.
To be eligible for the Ph.D. program, candidates need a Master's degree with 55% marks in related fields. Alternatively, a four-year Bachelor's degree with 75% marks can also be considered. Besides meeting the cut-off marks in the entrance exam, applicants must also score a minimum mark in each subject. Online applications are submitted via the NISER website.
