College fee is decent, and the college provides all facilities as well.

Placements: Placement cells do bring lots of companies to the college campus in placement drives. The average package was 10 LPA and the highest package was, in my batch, as per my knowledge, 25 LPA. IISER offers 100% placements and around 250 companies visited for placement drives. Companies like TCS, Capgemini, and Infosys visited the campus to offer recruitment opportunities to the students.

Infrastructure: Our college has one of the best infrastructures. In the main building, we have classrooms and many labs, such as computer labs, physics, chemical, and electrical labs. The interior is well-maintained and regularly cleaned washrooms. The college offers hostel facilities for both girls and boys on the campus itself. There is tight security and they are separately located away from the boys' hostel. The mess food is also good and fully hygienic.

Faculty: Faculty here are very supportive and friendly, so they are easily approachable. They solve the doubts of the students very firmly, and there are lots of different faculty members to teach different subjects. The method used by the teachers is both seminar-based and also on whiteboards. The digital board depends on the subject and topic as well.

A college that provides high placement opportunities and excellent teaching.

Placements: Placements are very good. The placement cell is very active and they also provide placement assistance also by CRT programs. The highest salary package offered by the companies is 24 LPA and the average salary package offered is 8 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Adobe, Tata Group, TCS, Infosys, ISRO, Biocon, etc., visit the college for placements. Many students got internship opportunities in the final year.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are well-structured with ventilation and fresh air from the trees. The academic block has 4 floors and there is a life too. The college library has a vast collection of books, journals, and digital resources. The college offers residential facilities for both boys and girls. Our college has a good option in sports like volleyball, basketball, etc.

Faculty: Faculty members are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They always support students and make them strong.

Professional behavior of Dr. Rajendra Kurapati of IISER TVM.

Placements: Only a few students from Physics or Math are given opportunities to work in companies and most of them apply for a Ph.D. The new placement cell that was set up in 2022 offers internship opportunities. The credentials of each student are the most important factor in them getting a Ph.D. position abroad. The titles of the institute, IISER, might not help if the student has low grades, and they must strive to keep their CGPA above 7.0 at least for a chance to get admitted into universities in the US. I felt that the average students (CGPA 7.5–8.5) in each department would get admitted to universities in the US with a QS rank of 300–900, which is pretty low. There is a high level of competition among students and achieving good grades is very difficult.

Infrastructure: The hostels had good facilities and were kept clean. There were problems with Wi-Fi connectivity in the past, but now new routers have been installed on every floor. The BSMS students reside in hostels that are located far away from the academic section and the rest of the campus and therefore accessibility to other places is limited.

Faculty: The professors are knowledgeable but the teaching quality depends on each professor. Some are good and some are not. If you want to pursue pure science, then this place is very good and has a good curriculum. I don't think it makes a student industry-ready, but it prepares them for Ph.D. applications. The exams are extremely competitive and students pass with a D grade. Depending on the course, the number of students who didn't pass could be around 20% for the toughest to 4% for the least toughest courses. Course difficulty depends on the professors; some give previous-year questions, some don't.

Other: The courses are affordable, and the crowd is alright, with extremely helpful seniors who don't rag or bully. There are some professors who display abusive behavior. For example, Dr. Rajendra Kurapati. I worked under this professor for a year and experienced instances where I was bullied, publicly humiliated, targeted and abused. I was harassed by a Ph.D. called Mahesh ML in this lab and the proof not only victim-blamed me but also gaslit me and tried to suppress me. He would have fits of range for the smallest of mistakes and always stir up drama. The Ph.D.s in the biomaterials lab are extremely gossipy and almost never talk about science. This lab was the worst in terms of a healthy work environment. The proof always engages in favoritism, where he assigns one student to get credit for many papers but bullies and lashes out at the rest of the people.

Fully satisfied with the available facilities and has great infrastructure.

Placements: Our college training is nice and they organize workshops by industry professionals. Last year, the highest salary package offered was 25 LPA and the average salary package offered was 11 LPA. In the summer campus drive around 80% of students got placed in top MNCs. College offers various opportunities like summer internships and final-year project internships.

Infrastructure: College size is big and college buildings are also well-maintained. In the college library, we have a massive collection of books and magazines. Labs are well-maintained, and they provide an excellent atmosphere to teach students practical knowledge. College hostel is available near to college and we have hostels for both boys and girls. In the hostel, they provide all facilities and the food quality is also excellent.

Faculty: Faculty members of our college are very good and supportive for students. Faculty members are very good at teaching and they are approachable. Most teachers use PPT for teaching. Exams are moderate with 2 mid-term exams and 1 is final exam. Students can pass the exams if they have good knowledge of the topics. Pass percentage is 70%.

Overall best College for Master of Science Course.

Placements: Nearly 80% of our graduates are employed, and private companies hire our graduates. The average salary ranges from 12 LPA to 25 LPA, while the highest salary in 2020 is 35 LPA. Some students choose to become data scientists, software engineers, and so on. Companies like IBM, Google, TCS, etc., recruit students from our campus.

Infrastructure: Every day, it has 10 GB of Wi-Fi. The public is welcome to visit the hospital. The teachers are excellent, and the school is excellent. It is also open around-the-clock and features a library. The cuisine is of good quality, and the ingredients are fresh. The hospital is good. Every slot machine has them, and they are all different.

Faculty: You will find these lessons difficult if you do not follow the trends. But there isn't much of a problem, and you can get a good score and you can get a good CG if you do your stuff honestly. There is no pressure to do anything here, and you will have plenty of time for your studies. The exam is easy, and the pass rate is 70%.

IISER TVM - A beautiful place to pursue your scientific interests.

Placements: At IISER TVM (and generally across all IISERs), placements are not the primary focus. Students do not enroll here merely to secure a job, but to genuinely explore their passion and pursue a deep understanding of various scientific disciplines. While placements in Data Science are notable, not many students opt for direct placements. Most choose to pursue higher education, such as Ph.D. programs, after completing their BS-MS degrees. A significant number of students secure admissions in prestigious institutions both within India and internationally.

Infrastructure: The campus of IISER TVM is well-equipped with modern infrastructure. Free Wi-Fi is accessible everywhere on campus, including hostels, mess, academic blocks, and the library. Hostel accommodations are clean and spacious, with shared rooms (initially for 2 students, later increased to 3). Classrooms are primarily located in the Lecture Hall Complex (LHC), with capacities ranging from 250 to 300 students. Separate buildings exist for Physical, Chemical, and Biological Sciences, with another dedicated building under construction for Mathematical and Data Sciences. The library, though limited in physical books, offers a vast collection of e-books and online resources, including research papers and journals in various fields such as Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, Data Sciences, Environmental Science, Economics, and Literature. The mess provides good quality food, and several affordable eateries within the campus offer a variety of options. The campus also has a 24x7 health center to cater to students' medical needs. Sports enthusiasts have numerous options, including volleyball courts, cricket nets, a football turf, an indoor stadium for badminton and table tennis, a basketball court, and dedicated grounds for football and cricket. Most sports facilities are equipped with professional coaches. For extra-curricular activities, there is a music room, a dance room, and a student recreation center.

Faculty: The faculty members at IISER TVM are highly qualified professionals who are approachable and friendly. The courses are designed to be flexible, preparing students to face competition in the scientific world. The grading system is fair, with multiple quizzes, one mid-semester exam, and one end-semester exam, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation.
