Best research Institute in the world.
Placements: This course provides research, and that's what most students pursue for higher education rather than pursuing a job. That is why here, there is no average package, but I can tell you the median package that was offered is 18 LPA according to the data for 2021-2022 and 8 LPA for 2022-2023. Recruiting companies are Adobe, Oswal, and many more. 90-100 percent of students got internships at research institutions. The top roles offered to students are research analysts, researchers, and scientists.
Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is very good, with best-class facilities. The 3 Gbps Wi-Fi network, and labs are very good, and even the computer lab is also very good. The classroom is also very good with smartboard facilities and projectors. The food quality is also very good, but the problem here is that the spiciness is very low.
Faculty: Professors are very helpful, well-qualified, and with the best knowledge. The teaching quality is very good, and they provide extra time after the class for doubt sessions. The course curriculum for mathematics is such that it focuses on developing skills rather than just learning.
Other: This college is the only place where both research and industry experience are gainable due to faculty members from diverse backgrounds in mathematics, and that's what I want, so I chose it. All things are better, but I only want the entrepreneurship cell here, which is not here.

Overall best College for Master Of Science Course.
Placements: The average salary for Master of Science graduates from IISER Thiruvananthapuram is 22 LPA, with one student recently receiving 25 LPAs from top companies. Companies that hire students include Mahindra Group, Tata Group, and Mu Sigma. Most students receive internship opportunities, but many do not participate in placements.
Infrastructure: The hostels were clean and well-equipped, and the Wi-Fi connectivity issues that had been reported previously have been resolved. The hostels are located remotely from the academic area and the rest of campus, which allowed for mobility to other locations.
Faculty: The teachers and professors at IISER Thiruvananthapuram are experts in their fields and very approachable. They are also open to constructive conversation. The curriculum focuses heavily on research-based learning, covering both the history of science and new discoveries. The semester exams are easy, and the pass rate is 72%.

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.

It is the best college for MSc.
Placements: This college offers best placements all over India. We currently have BSMS, MSc, IPHD, and PhD students. BSMS students have a higher chance of getting placements. But, placements are less as most students go into research after their master's. We have a placements cell that informs students about opportunities in industry and academia. Around 70%-80% of students get placed here.
Infrastructure: The college hostel rooms are very good. Balcony faces beautiful mountains, clouds, and greenery. We have wall-mounted cupboard, track, table, chair, and bed in the room. Rooms are double-seater. We have washing machines in our hostel. The food is very good in both quality and taste. It is a student-run mess, and they always ensure to provide the best.
Faculty: Teachers in my college are very helpful and qualified, and quality of teaching is excellent. Teachers have good knowldege about the course. Curriculum of our college is defined as per the requirements. Course makes students industry-ready, and students have gotten very good jobs. The pass rate is 65%.

Best institute for research.
Placements: IISER Thiruvananthapuram has a median salary package of 18 LPA. Top companies that recruit students are Adobe and TCS, as well as many research institutions. About 75% of students are placed for higher studies, and the remaining students are employed. Approximately 100% of the students get internships, and the top roles offered are scientist, research associate, and data scientist.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure at IISER TVM is very good. The Wi-Fi speed is 3 Gbps, the labs are well maintained, and construction of the library is ongoing. The hostel has good facilities, including double occupancy rooms with beds, study tables, and almirahs. The food is of good quality and overall the hostel is very hygienic.
Faculty: The teachers are well qualified. They all have Master's degrees and Ph.D.s from great universities like Oxford, Cambridge, and Stanford. The course curriculum is relevant, and the course is helpful for those who are interested in research, academia, and industry. The semester exams are easy if you study continuously. The overall pass percentage is 90-95%, and the subject-wise pass percentage is 80-90%.
Other: I chose this course because I wanted to learn data science as well as mathematics, and only IISER offers data science with research. From 2024 onwards, IITs started offering it, but I had to choose a college in 2023, so I chose IISER. The things that could be better at this college are the placement cell, the salary packages, the finance department, the coding clubs, and the entrepreneurship cell. There are many scholarships available.

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.
