I am interested in doing research and becoming a scientist that's why I chose iiser. Iiser prepares its students for research starting from the UG level itself. The main bad aspect of IISERP is its hectic academic workload. I got admitted into IISERP through IISER Aptitude Test which is an annual entrance test. It tests your ability in PCMB. The difficulty is comparable to JEE mains and neet. I started my preparation by preparing for the next. School math knowledge and NEET-level prep for PCB were enough for me to crack the IAT.
I chose this course because I am interested in research. At first, I was mainly interested in biology and now it shifted to climate sciences which comes under the Earth and Climate Sciences department in IISERP. Faculties are well qualified. All of them have a PhD and at least 2 years of postdoc but many of them aren't good at teaching. The course curriculums are designed in a really good way, especially for Biology and ECS. A semester is 4 months long and two sem exams and quizzes occur in between making the academic life a bit hectic. We get 3 months of summer break and this time is given so that students can do summer internships. The fee has increased but not very much for the past few years for BSMS.
There are placement opportunities but most of the students choose to do a phd after BSMS. Most of them get to do that abroad too. A lot of students also do their master's thesis abroad. Some students also go for UPSC or MBA.
Club activities and an annual fest occur in IISERP but aren't very active due to the huge academic workload. The annual fest is called KARAVAAN. It is below par when compared to nearby colleges and other national institutes. The library and classroom facilities are really good. Both are well-furnished and air-conditioned. The library is a little small for a college library. A lot of books are available but very low seating facility. Classrooms have most of the modern teaching equipment. Disha is a student-run club aiming to educate underprivileged students and they are doing a really good job in it. There are a lot of varieties of food and the pricing is also reasonable but the quality is often below par. There are two messes in the dining hall complex and the bottom one's negligence caused students to be admitted to hospital due to food poisoning.
I haven't reached my placement stage yet but from what I have seen the college doesn't wait until the final year to start preparing students. We have coding sessions, skills building workshops and career guidance from the beginning. Seniors also share their experiences which gives us a better idea of what to expect. I feel the college is helping us build the right foundation for internships and placements. At the same time, I think getting a good job also depends on how much effort we put into improving our own skills. So far I feel I am on the right track
no placement data is present now but many of students are working on their own projects and few are cracked the internships and now currently serving their period on the companies and it's really great opportunities.
The college does have a placement cell. It provides some in campus placements . Rarely 2% students get in campus placements. Rest have to find jobs pn their own. You wi have to do alot of interships and gain practical skills to be placed
Diffrent companies have different criteria, limited companies comes in campus such as bootcoding Pvt.Ltd , and some small companies arrived. Highest package giving by companies is 4 LPA lowest package is 3LPA and average package is 2.5LPA. about 20% of students got placed. Searching a job after my course computation.
The faculty members are supporting but inexperienced the experienced professionals have left the college long time ago. This is one of the old colleges in Pune. The semesters are generally proactive extracurricular activities are less and are given not much priority .
