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.

Professors are really nice, they are well qualified and provide the best knowledge.

Placements: Students are eligible for the placement in their final year of the course. We have BS-MS, MSc, IPhD and PhD currently. Students from BS-MS are more likely to be placed. Though placement is less as students mostly go for research after masters. We have a placement cell that notifies about the opportunities in industries and academia. As my plans are to pursue a PhD after getting this degree, I never got interested in a placement opportunity.

This is a good institute if you are interested in research.

Placements: For Masters, students are eligible from the 4th semester for placements. A large number of companies will visit and a maximum number of students are placed every year. The highest package is 10 lakh per year. And the average package is 3 lacs per year. More than 90 percent of students are placed every year. I am trying to get placed in a good company.

The natural beauty, greenery, culture, and people are very good.

Placements: Placement Experience: Students are eligible for placement in their final year of the course. We currently have BSMS, M.Sc., Ph.D. and Ph.D. Students from BSMS are more likely to be placed. However, placement is less, as students mostly go for research after their masters.

Campus life is the best in our college.

Placements: The placements cell is growing and has not yet fully developed. Very few companies in consultancy, data Science, etc. approach the Institute for recruitments. Mostly, engineering and economic sciences students are placed with an average placement package of 7 LPA. Some companies recruiting are Deloitte, Dr. Reddy's Lab, etc. Other BSMS students generally go for higher studies abroad and in the country.

Campus of IISER, Thiruvananthapuram, is amazing.

Placements: People joining IISER and other research colleges generally go for higher studies like Ph.D. after BSMS. After 6th semester in BS, the students are eligible for campus placements. In BS, the average package offered is 17 LPA and for BSMS, it is around 7 LPA. Some top recruiters are TCS, Deloitte, SBI Atotech, Reddy's Lab, etc. The percentage of students getting placements in BS is high being around 80 percent, but in BSMS, it is less because the students prefer higher studies rather than going fo...

IISER: Beautiful College for Pure Science Research.

Placements: IISER TVM has just started its placement cell. But with that being said, good placement offers are coming. However, IISER is a Science Institute where research into pure Science is given importance. So, most students go abroad for Ph.D. And of course, there are many who opt for the civil service and Jobs as well. Most students do internships during the summer break, starting from their first year. In fact, internships are encouraged even if there are no credits for it for the foundation years. t...

Review of IISER Thiruvananthapuram.

Placements: There is a placement cell in our college as well, which helps students to get jobs. However, most of the students in IISER, after five years of BS-MS, pursue Ph.D. abroad. Almost 75-85% of the students get Ph.D. opportunities outside India every year. ISRO and DRDO also recruit students for junior scientist jobs from here after BS-MS. Most of the students got internships at IITs, IISc, TIFR, IISERs, and some students at foreign universities as well, like Harvard, Stanford, Max Planck, etc.

Absolutely satisfied because of good ambiance faculty and really good infrastructures and facilities

More than 80% of students from my batch got internship during this summer in different IISERs and in different prestigious institutions in India .

It has a competitive and enriching environment with helpful professors, but no great placements.

Placements: Most of the students from IISER TVM opt to do a Ph.D. The stipend for a Ph.D. varies from 800 to 2000 euros. They apply in the US and Europe for a Ph.D. position. There are very few students who go to industry after BSMS. There is a new placement cell here that is trying to help students get jobs.

Absolutely satisfied by campuslife and facilities.

Placements: There will not be campus placement to any company from the campus. Students who complete their masters degree generally go for Ph.D. The certificate has great value internationally so it will be easy to get Ph.D. abroad (it also depends on academic performance). .

It is one of the best institutes in India for science and research aspirants.

Placements: IISER TVM offers not only a professional degree but also a research degree. Here you will get placed in research positions in top-class universities around the world. The campus does not have any placement committee/office. Students only have to explore on their own and apply for programs in universities or directly for open positions with faculty members whose research work they like.
