IISER Thiruvananthapuram, BSMS

Remarks

I have never been to Kerala and then I got seat in Thiruvananthapuram through jee stream. First I thought of joining near my home but once I saw the campus and its greenery, I decided to join. Later I got to know that we get monthly scholarship of 5k rupees but later after joining it got cancelled to jee students.

Course Curriculum Overview

My syllabus updates mostly depend on particular faculties but mostly every faculty teaches sufficient knowledge to that particular course. Once or twice a week we have lab sessions which are very helpful for future Phd aspirants. Faculties are very supportive but show a little partiality when selecting students for their labs. I feel Mr.Ravi Maruthachalam is better in my opinion.

Class Size: 40

College Events

4.5

We held ishya which is an inter college cultural fest, anvEsha which is an intracollege science fest and itsav which is an intracollege sports meet. We also have inter college sports meet between different iisers called iism.

Campus Life

Firstly sports facilities are very bad when compared to that of other categories. Wifi is mostly uninterrupted and fast, Size of the temporary library is fine but permanent library is supposed to be big hopefully. Equipments in labs are up to date and advanced.

Experiences so far

Likes

My experience at lissah has been mixing of challenges. Psychology depart has supportive teachers and classes is good
Campus is peaceful and it’s so greenery there are opportunities to take part in different academics
I also like that the psychology department has its own lab and practical exposure and Lissah is well known for psychology itself

Dislikes

I feel that there could be more programmes activities and opportunities for students to make college life
Location could feel like quiet and it’s not in town area
Those who prefer more active atmosphere I would not recommend here

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose bsc psychology because I was interested in understanding human behaviour. The curriculum covers different areas of psychology along with subjects such as major psychology minor statistics and physiology then English mdc . Since I am still in my first year I have only experienced the initial part of course

Faculties are good. Most them are very friendly
Class rooms and canteen are also good. Not the best
Fees are very low comparing to other collages

Dislikes

Not giving good placements. Only 1 or 2 good companies good. Others are average
I'm not interested hostel. But my friends in hostel always saying that the food is not good.
Some faculties are not treat all the students equal. Not every only some

Placement Experience:

Placement are not the best. But EY , federal bank, TCS are some the prominent companies that are coming. The negative thing about placement is most of them are offering marking jobs. So if you are someone who is interested in operations this is not the collage you want to in.

Decent infrastructure. hostel infrastructure is also clean and better than most colleges

Dislikes

Very poor campus life. No importance for cultural programmes and activities
Very poor and degrading environment for women. Faculties and other staff are very judgemental.
Very low packages for average students. Placement training is regularly being provided, but it is too hectic to be managed along with curriculum.

Placement Experience:

students become eligible for placements after sixth semester. Major companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant, e.t.c are recruiters. about 5-10 students are recuited on average by these companies. highest package was offered by south indian bank in 2023 (10 LPA). average packges are around 2 to 3 LPA.

Likes

Our seniors passed out with flying colors joining different companies or starting their own. There's a good focus on peer learning and student communities which is pretty nice. Canteen food is decent and labs are great
Most people and professors are friendly and they encourage you to try out new things.

Dislikes

Hostel water , busses are pretty fast. Sometimes roads are a bitt rough

Course Curriculum Overview:

Course curriculum is under KTU syllubus do it's fine. There is a change in curriculum coming 2024 which i assume would make a lot of good changes. The curriculum gives you a head start For most of your work, you need to on your own but the faculty is there to help. The frequency of exams is weekly tests + monthly exams. Its not too difficult of an exam.

Review of TOC H institute of science and technology

Likes

I feel like staffs in my department are pretty good, atleast they fullfill their duties to cover the portions in right time
We have placements training, offered free of cost by college itself
Notes and necessary materials for studying are provided from college itself, and most teachers don't force on buying textbooks or other materials

Dislikes

College is located in aarakunnam, which is a bit remote area hence for various needs we often need to travel a few kilometres even for basic necessities
The road to collage entrance is a steep road, and currently it's under construction (it's been a yr)
Students are required to park their vehicles outside the college, as there is no parking facilities for students inside campus

Placement Experience:

Currently placements are bit low, due to inflation, but compared to other colleges like KMEA, etc we have better placements similar to Muthoot and all. We have placement training, and other supports which can help us crack aptitude exams and prepare for placements Almost 70-80% students are placed every year, with an avg package of 4LPA

One of the most beautiful campus in india

I applied for two colleges and got those two too. I got for bsc chemistry in one of them, which I was not interested in. And biochemistry in other. I didn't choose any of those because I wanted a integrated degree and wanted to study in an institute of national importance. That's why I chose this institute. I applied for two and got those too. I wrote many entrances for practice. Then at last I give IAT EXAM for iiser admission. In my times there was three channels (KVPY, IAT, JEE ) to enter iiser. I entered through iat channel. Iat means IISER aptitude test. The mark of this exam is not provided on the rank card. For the rank cutoff I will say it will be around AIR 2000 for general category. This information is regarding the IAT 2023...Read More

IISER TVM through my eyes

There was a written exam that was MCQ and online proctored exam. After clearing that written test, candidates were called for online interview round 1 and if one cleared that, there was another round 2. After clearing all these three steps, candidates were provisionally selected. Let me mention one thing here that all these processes were online from home and well proctored while web cam was on whole time. One can easily find the application form that is activated in the month of March-April and last date is usually 30th April, exam is conducted in month of May and interview in June. Application fee was 1000? as far as I remember....Read More
