Our college has good course and good faculty but not ideal campus life.

Placements: If you want placements, IISER isn't the right choice. It is for building a student for further research, mostly doing a Ph.D. Some students might opt for jobs in education. Chemistry students might look for a job in a pharma company but that's not the college's responsibility. Do not come to IISER hoping for good placements. You'll land yourself in a nice Ph.D. course if you study sincerely.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is not top-notch, but it's still quite okay. Hostel rooms are really good and most of them are single rooms. Labs are good but we do not have a permanent campus. Until the next semester, we have to travel to the transit campus for the laboratory which is 25 km away from here. Lately, we have been facing a lot of Wi-Fi issues. Hopefully, they'll be solved soon. Library needs a lot more books. On the permanent campus, classes are being conducted on the 1st floor of the dining hall, in guest house, and in the health center as the academic block is to be functional in subsequent semesters. But these places are good, with a nice ambiance. It is not a matter of concern. Food is getting worse day by day, and we have been told that the mess contractor will be changed in a month. Hopefully, there'll be something better. There are sports facilities inside and outside the hostel. Gym, basketball court, and badminton court are inside the hostel, and football and lawn tennis are outside. A cricket stadium is under construction.

Faculty: Most of the instructors are good as people and as teachers, except for one-two. Semester exams are not difficult. You will pass as long as you attend classes and study sincerely. Questions won't be from out of the syllabus. Grading is usually done relatively. It may sometimes be non-transparent depending on the instructor. Anyway, you don't calculate grades. Study and you will pass. Leave the grade to the instructor.

Other: I chose this course because I could not get a desired seat at IIT. It was unplanned and I did not even appear at the entrance. I took admission through the JEE channel. Most of the time, I don't regret it though, except for some overwhelming times caused by the authorities' decisions and rules. The course is very good. Instructors are friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable. The other poor side of the coin is probably the authority being in the wrong hands. This year, a lot of things including science and cultural fests have been banned without any logical justification. There is not much crowd as there are very limited seats in IISERs, around 200 people per batch.

Love the campus, best infrastructure.

Placements: Basically IISERs are not for placement. It is a center for excellence. But some students opt for placements. Most big companies come for placement like Google, Microsoft, Adobe etc. And various research companies. About 50% of students got internship in various research centers and universities and in other companies.

Infrastructure: IISER, Berhampur has the best infrastructure in India. You will get the world class facilities here. You will get the fast Wi-Fi, Library with all the required books and with access to thousands of journals in both offline and online. The mess food is totally love. Also you will get high quality medical facilities, sports and games. There are Basketball field in every hostel and also have indoor game facilities.

Faculty: IISER is famous for his faculty all over the India. It is a national importance Institution. The teaching quality and classroom are world class. The difficulty level of semester exams are of up to mark, not very difficult not very easy that is moderate. Generally the pass percentage of class is 100%. All students are selected here by a national level exam. The teachers are highly qualified.

A must place for those young minds who wish to do research on any Science topic in future.

Placements: It is a Science research institute and we usually go abroad or any other higher institutions to pursue our PhD and post-doc degrees before applying for a job. Therefore there is no placement after BSMS degrees. There is no campus placement either. However, with PhD and post-doc fellows end up as research scientists or professors in good institutions.

Infrastructure: We have an amazing library, Wi-Fi, computer labs and various Science labs for undergraduates to post doc fellows. The hostels are well furnished and provided with first aid kits. Healthy food is provided by the need thrice a day. We have to buy snacks from the canteen. Our college campus has medical block and a nearby hospital in case of emergency. We have cultural and sports meet every year hence they are highly valued.

Faculty: The teachers are very helpful and qualified. They are friendly and interactive. Education here is very rich and every course taught is relevant to the curriculum giving students a deep insight into the field of Science. The semesters are fairly tough. It depends mainly on how much the students have actually understood the subject. Scoring good grades isn't difficult as it follows relative grading.

Other: I chose this course because I wanted to research Astronomy. Hence I am a major in Physics and a minor in CS. My course is BSMS, however, our permanent campus is almost ready and that would add to the improvement.

Very good place for research.

Placements: IISER Berhampur is a research institute and is not focused on placement rather it's main motive is research. Students here look for Ph.D. in prestigious institutions in India and abroad. If we talk about internships, there are plenty of opportunities for that as IISERs have tie ups with many other institutions (including foreign ones). This year one of our seniors got to study Ph.D. at Cornell University, US. I know many of my friends who have done their internship in prestigious institutions like CSIR, IITs, IISC, etc.

Infrastructure: Currently we are having our classes in the transit campus and this year only we are shifting to the permanent campus. In transit campus everything is best in class. We have 24/7 Wi-Fi, electricity, water facility. Labs are far better than some of the IITs. A central library (with subscription to some the most prestigious journals, magazines and research papers) is also present to facilitate research and study. Currently hostels are good but are outside the campus and we have to share room with 1 other person but in permanent campus we get single person rooms in hostel. Mess food is good and tasty. Sports facilities are limited in transit campus but at permanent campus everything is best in class. We have a doctor and medical attendants in the campus.

Faculty: The professors here are excellent, they are highly qualified (most of them have done their studies and research in foreign institutions) and knowledgeable. For exams IISER Berhampur has credit system in each semester. We have to maintain credits for each subject in order to pass.

Our college is research-oriented, and it is set up by MHRD with progressive infrastructure.

Placements: Our college does not provide placements. If you are interested in placements, you can go to any engineering college. But if you are interested in pursuing research as your career goal, then IISER Berhampur is a good choice.

Infrastructure: Facilities like Wi-Fi, a library and computer labs are available. The hostels are congested with little air, and sunlight comes.

Faculty: The maximum professors are helpful and supportive. But some professors are a little egoistic. The course curriculum is very good, relevant and practical. You can learn a lot and also it will benefit you in the future. Semester exams are tough. The courses are very good, and it is delivered by good faculty members. Hands-on experience is provided, but due to COVID, it is restricted now.

Other: The first batch from IISER BERHAMPUR passed out in the year 2021. About 16 students are from Biology, and they did PhD in good institutions in India like IITs, IISERs, NISER, IISc, etc., as well as abroad like EMBL Europe. Annual fests are organised on the campus, but if we compare it with other colleges, it is dull. Scholarships are only given to some students based on their pass out year of class 12 and its result. IISM. An annual sports meet is held between all IISERs.
