Hello!
NISERs are not generally placement-oriented colleges. They prefer to give good quality education to the students. The course is structured focusing on a research career.
However, the placements for last year were good the highest package offered was INR 15 LPA and the average package was INR 8 LPA. Almost 80% of the batch got placed. Some of top recruiters were TCS, Infosys, Defense Research and Development Organization, Indian Space Research Organization, Council of Scientific and Industrial Research Labs, etc.
I hope it will help. You can reach out to us for further queries.
Thank You.

Admission to NISER Bhubaneswar depends on the programme you're interested in. For instance, to get admission into Integrated MSc Program (5 years), admission is based on the National Entrance Screening Test (NEST) conducted jointly by NISER and UM-DAE CEBS Mumbai. For that, candidates need to register and perform well on NEST. Selection into the pragram is based solely on the NEST score. There are no interviews or additional tests.
If you want to pursue PhD Program & Integrated MSc+PhD Program, you will be shortlisted based on your eligibility and scores in national exams like GATE, JEST, GPAT, CSIR-UGC NET, etc. (specific exams vary by

The selection for Ph.D. admission is based on the overall performance and the marks obtained in any of the National Level Eligibility Tests such as NET, ICMR, ICAR, DBT, and GATE . The shortlisted candidates are asked to appear for a group discussion and a personal interview. NISER provides hostel facilities to its students, with separate accommodation for girls and boys
