Placements: You should not worry about the job. These institutes aim to provide scientists, not millionaires. But yes, from here you can go in any field related to science or you can do PhD. Placement record is not high because many students prefer doing PhD instead of job. Here, you get decent scholarships. Also, the fees is quite low as compared to other institutes.

Placements: IISER gives a great opportunity for an internship in a wide variety of colleges in and outside India. They have collaborations with a lot of universities and laboratories.

There the interests arises due to the science that is communicated to us through popular articles or clips in newspapers, magazines or t...

Placements: It is a research institute and mainly focuses on research. It does not provide any placements. However, anyone can get it on their own. I suggest taking admission in it only if you have a keen interest in research and would like to study further as students from such reputed institutes get PhD offers from various prestigious universities.

Placements: After getting a BS-MS degree from IISER, most students apply for a Ph.D. Those who go into research are generally paid well. Job opportunities are plentiful. Most students go for internships in their chosen fields, in and outside the campus and gain a lot of experience.
