Review of Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru.
Placements: Campus placement conditions have improved in IISc after the inception of the campus placement cell. The average package is around 25 LPA. Since most of the students go for higher studies from IISc, you will see the placement percentage to be low. Personally, I am also going for higher studies.
Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is comfortable with student furniture and 24/7 Wi-Fi access on campus. The library is well-stocked with a vast collection of books and journals for self-study. The lab is well-equipped with all necessary tools. While the hostel is average, the food in the mess is neither tasty nor hygienic. The college provides good sports and medical facilities.
Faculty: Faculty members are very approachable, almost all whom I have met. They are highly qualified in their fields. You can meet them anytime; just need to drop a mail. There are enough faculty members, so there won't be any issues regarding the student-to-faculty ratio. They also apply the best methods for studying.
Other: One of the most popular cultural festivals at IISc is "Pravega," an annual techno-cultural fest organized by the students. They also have an annual sports meet. Apart from these, sports-specific tournaments are also there, like the inter-department cricket tournament.
