ALL ABOUT IISER PUNE

4.1Helpful

Likes

Most liked thing that there is no ragging in college and all senior are just like big brother and sister, this thing i so loved. Also there is very much greenery in campus which look very nice mainly in rainy season.
All the professor are very brilliant and help student time to time for internship till last date and explain all the phenomenon and clear doubt by simply taking a appointment.

Dislikes

The Thing i don't like is the distance of college from pune city is about 10 km which is makes us very deductive for going us to the main pune city. So we go only 2 to 3 time in a month to pune city.

Campus Life:

In iiser pune main events are KARAVAAN and MIMAMSA which is very famous. As karavaan is annual fest which is 2-3 days festival in college which included all the enjoy things which is typically take in month of october, mimamsa is grand fest like but it is a competition of colleges in which aroung 1000 college of india participate and only 4 college chosen. After that they come at iiser pune and the top team won 4 lakh. The main thing i like it is that it is totally conduct by students, which make it really good. Also there is other club like disha which teach tooor chilidren of basti , art club , drama club, dance club etc. Also you are welcome in any club which helps you to explore in all field which is very helpful. Also there is sports complex, gym , football and cricket ground etc. Also the class is very modern like every classroom is well maintained and is very neat and clean.

An overview of IISER Kolkata: academics, research, hostel, mess, etc

4.3Helpful

Likes

IISER Kolkata has very good academic infrastructure. The Research complex is really very big. Teaching labs, lecture halls and all other complexes are centrally air conditioned.
The Student Monitored Canteen serves very good quality food. If you are a non vegetarian, you will not miss you home food much (of course home food is the best). I have stayed in hostel for 8 years befor joining IISER, and trust me iiserK is the best

Dislikes

Single room accomodation is not provided to hostelers as there is shortage of hostel rooms in iiserK.
Far from the city of Kolkata, it has pros and cons both. The good thing is there is lot of space and Greenery but the disadvantage is that we have to go really far for shopping and other necessities.

Campus Life:

Annual fest of IISER Kolkata is Inquivesta, generally takes place between March and April. Library is well equipped with all necessary books of different fields of science. There is a good collection of journals too, college also provides access to lots of science journals through the Myloft app. Sports facilities are also very good but yes we cannot compare it with old IITs. The cultural clubs of IISER Kolkata are awesome, IISER Kolkata has been the champion of interest IISER -niser-iisc cultural meet in 2022, 2023 consecutively. There are different clubs like, music club, coding club, drama club, astronomy club, dance club, cricket club, tennis club badminton club, and a lot of other clubs. There is a club called "Ek pehal" , it helps underprivileged children thought different outreach programs like providing them free tuitions in weekends and vacations, organising different cultural and training programs for them, etc .

The campus hostels and the environment is very good. It brings you mental peace. The mess food is also good enough. The professor allow you to work in their labs to gain more experience as a first-year student. Even you can join a Lab

Dislikes

For the First year has to study all five subjects and it becomes pretty hectic after sometime
A first year student studying five subjects will obviously get lower grades as compared to the other years

Campus Life:

There are many clubs in the campus. For example dance club, football club, sports, all kinds of sports you can think of inter batch competitions and there are many student social groups which focus on educating the poor children of the society especially Kolkata. There is a society called ek pal, which focuses on upbringing And enrichment of children from the lower zones of society. There are also Many science magazines published by the students on the work of their Professor.
