Satisfied with the faculty members .
Placements: The campus has a well-functioning placement cell that assists students. Students are eligible to sit for placements in the last semester, given that they have completed the required number of credits. However, a unique point about the institute is that since it is a research-oriented institute, most students prefer to go for higher studies. Last year's data shows that only 6 students SAT for placements, out of which 5 were placed with an average package of 15 lacs per year. The remaining vast majority of students went down two ways: either continuing to do their Masters at IISc itself or going for a Ph.D. in their field. Out of 100 students, 60 were accepted into prestigious international universities in the USA, Europe and Australia to continue their studies with a Ph.D. and contribute to scientific research. The universities that accepted undergraduates from IISc range from the University of Michigan to Oxford University, Caltech to the University of Los Angeles and many more.
Infrastructure: The hostel facilities provided by the campus are top-notch. The hostels have been divided into blocks, with UG students being assigned E block, U block and S block. The rooms are well-equipped with beds, fans, cupboards, and light. The rooms in E block are twin-sharing, while single-occupancy rooms are available in U & S blocks. The room allotment is random. The hostels are assigned on the first day of coming to campus and are very cheap at 5,000 per month. The hostels are located at a central location on the campus so classrooms are nearby. The food provided at the campus is of excellent quality. There are 5 messes: A and B being North Indian veg and North Indian non-veg, C and D being South Indian veg and South Indian non-veg, and E mess providing a composite diet. The menu is decided by a mess committee selected by the students. 4 meals are provided every day: breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner. Special items are made for festivals; deserts and beverages are there.
Faculty: Highly qualified and motivated faculty are there. They are superheroes for the students. They are very open-minded and sensible. Each faculty member has their own lab in which they will be doing their research. With the experience they have, they never disappoint students in giving guidance through their project work. You can always go to any faculty for clarifications.
Other: IISC has the best campus atmosphere. I think they will first conduct the freshers party for juniors every year and then there will be Sangam, a party for all freshers and seniors and Rhapsody, an annual fest in which many science and technical events are organized.
