IISER Mohali 2024 glimpses.

Placements: Placements are very low and often low package if available. Usually data science minors may opt for placements. Most people opt for PhDs after BS-MS. Since it is not a professional course, there's flexibility in choosing careers. Some may even go for corporate jobs or government jobs unrelated to their topic.

A good all rounder institute, and one of the best places to pursue research in India.

Placements: IISER Mohali doesn't have placements like typical engineering colleges. It is a research institute, and hence students opt to pursue higher education instead, I. e. PhDs. There are no packages offered but students wishing to work in the industry find jobs in R&D departments of companies. Many students wish to work as professors and go into education. You have the option to take a BS exist as well, without completing the whole BSMS course. Internships are provided to pursue research within the co...

College is your type if you are an aspiring scientist.

Placements: The placement environment here is not yet developed, though there is an opportunity cell that handles all this, which is also quite new. Moreover, most students after graduation from here pursue Ph.D. and postdoctoral studies, and for these, IISER Mohali provides good exposure and ample opportunities.

IISER Mohali offers the best quality facilities, faculty and placement opportunities to students.

Placements: In the IISER, Mohali, around 40–45% of the students get placements in our course. In our course, the average package offered was between 4 and 7 LPA. Various research and development companies visit our college for placements. The top roles offered were researchers, project heads, research interns, etc. in our course. Students also get internship opportunities at this college.

Absolutely satisfied with the faculty and really an incredible experience to have in life once.

Placements: Most people probably wanted to do their respective doctoral work in foreign countries but did not get placed. The highest package was 10 lacs and the lowest was 6 lacs. Most of the companies were looking for research associates. You can get an internship anywhere around the world.
