Only come here if you actually want to study Science, not for the name that it is a top institute.
Placements: There is no such placement opportunity here. Being a research institute, it actually not supposed to provide placements to their students. Yes, you can apply for better Ph.D. opportunities, which will provide you stipend. Although, the institute has an underdeveloped cell which may help you for placements in further years.
Infrastructure: Labs are the best thing you may find here in this institute as it is funded on hefty basis by the government and also there are such people to guide you in this. Hostels are pretty good, as they have paid automatic washing machines, sufficient spaced rooms, and other facilities.
Faculty: To be very honest, curriculum is actually pretty much strict and tight scheduled. Exams are not much different for any other colleges. For particular courses there are particular professors who make their own criteria for passing an exam and the question paper pattern.

Good infrastructure and facilities. Absolutely satisfied with faculty and studies.
Placements: If you are looking for placements, then it is not a place for you, Here students mailny focus on research, then Ph.D. Although there are placements in college, not as many as IIT. Students do Ph.Ds abroad or in India and get a stipend. Many students preferred doing Ph.D. from abroad.
Infrastructure: Faculty members are excellent; all of them are very cooperative; they are best in their own particular areas. Labs here are fully equipped (best), library 24x7, Wi-Fi available in whole campus, hostels are good, mess food is very good compared to other places, at most all sports and games, 24?7 medical facilities (free). Want to know more, then visit the Iiser Kolkata site.
Faculty: Teachers are excellent in their own particular field (best); they are all Ph.D. holders and very cooperative. Here you will not remember things; you will understand it and learn to apply it in real life. Exams are not focused on memory but on understanding. If you come here, one thing is for sure: you don't have to memorise things. If you understand, then you pass the exam. Exams are focused on understanding why you may find them difficult because you will not be able to find questions as they are in your notes but based on them, but as I said earlier, if you pay slight attention in class then you are good to go. CGPA matters here; CGPA is certainly important. You should have a good CGPA because there are subjects that have minimum CGPA criteria.
Other: The best thing is that if you become a researcher, you can discover or invent new things, although it takes time but it's worth it.

The administration is slow.
Placements: In IISERs, students are encouraged to become scientists; hence, many students go for a Ph.D. in their respective topic of interest. Therefore, we can't expect any kind of placement from here but students get selected for Ph.D.s at top universities abroad or in India as well.
Infrastructure: Talking about the infrastructure, lecture hall and research complex is great. But the hostels here are not well built. The food here is comparatively better than at other colleges. For a person like me who seats moderately, it costs around 2,000 per month for the food. The location of the college itself is bad; there is no proper transport available, and the main city is quite far away.
Faculty: In the bio department, the faculty is knowledgeable but lacks the skill of teaching. The coursework until the 2nd year focuses on building students' interests in interdisciplinary subjects, which focuses more on the fundamentals of the subjects. After the third year, we get a good look at how to work in labs and stuff. The curriculum labs are great for building foundations, but not all students get hands-on due to the lack of management and the crowding.
Other: I chose this course considering my interests in research and lab work. But coming here made me realize that this was not me and that this isn't my passion. Thankfully, this course allows some freedom. Some students opt for an MBA and go business-side. I am exploring new options that fit my personal interests.

Best faculty members and good infrastructure.
Placements: If you are coming for a job, then it is not a good option. Because most of the students choose to study further and do a Ph.D. in their specific subject. Since students do not choose jobs, placement cells are not that developed.
Infrastructure: The overall college infrastructure is excellent and we can say the same; over-top IIT and AIIMS infrastructure is also here. We get everything on the campus. There is no need to go out for anything. They have all academics classes and labs.
Faculty: We are provided with the top faculty or the top most teachers present at the national level. Our schedule is made by college and it is also on the official site of our college. We have exams on a regular basis and the question paper is set by the teacher itself.
Other: Our campus is controlled by students so that's why it is good and in the way we want.

Most students secure placements in space research institutes. The college provides proper placement training to the students.
Infrastructure: IISER Kolkata has very good infrastructure for the Master’s in Space Physics course. Labs with all the necessary equipment are available for students’ experiential knowledge. The college has Wi-Fi, a library, a canteen, and hostel facilities. Overall, all the facilities are very good at this college.
Faculty: Faculty at this institute is highly qualified and knowledgeable. Most teachers are Ph.D. holders from reputed institutes.

All about IISER Kolkata .
Placements: The institute is meant for students who are interested in research; there is no placement. Like, very few students sit for placements. Generally, students prefer that Ph.D. internships are not in companies; you will intern in some professors labs, which you have to find ourselves.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good all over IISER. WiFi is maintained. Labs are well-equipped, and classrooms have comfortable chairs and spacing. The library is well managed; you will find every book that you need during your coursework. The quality of the food is good. Medical facilities are average, as are sports.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful. They take your feedback regularly and work on it. All of them have PhDs, and many have post-doctoral degrees. The curriculum is multidisciplinary, which is what is needed in today's research world. Semester exams are not that tough, and you will get good marks if you study.
