Course Curriculum Overview

5

The course here is heavy. You have to learn mathematics thrice as the other bachelor courses in India, statistics is twice as the other bachelor's degree and the physics courses here are equivalent to the courses in a normal bachelor's degree and CS courses are quite similar to what is studied in IIT in first two years. And one has to do all these courses within 3 years here. So the curriculum is heavier than any other university in India. But the positive part is we get to learn so much. We are efficient enough for mathematics, statistics, and CS jobs and of course research jobs. If one can handle the pressure it's amazing.

Internships Opportunities

4.5

Every year professor here took students for research projects/ summer projects (this is only about the math department). There are many departments, if you look at the LIS/QMS department they get very good internships. They earn up to 1 lakh/month via those internships.

Fees and Financial Aid

There is no fees required at ISI. Here if you get above 60% every semester you will get a stipend of 5000/- per month and an additional contingency grant of 5000/- per semester. Only the hostel will cost you 200/- per month.

Campus Life

4.5

We have a small community of students who live full of life. Seniors are helpful. The library is amazing the wifi here is not that good. The sports are good. Every year we have an annual student fest, a freshers, a farewell and every major sports tournament.

Hostel Facilities

4

Good, that's all I can say. Not very nice and luxurious but quite comfortable. The double rooms are big and single rooms are small. Double rooms are like heaven. There is no refrigerator, which is problematic in the hostel.

Admission

The time I entered the admission process was difficult. Nowadays it's a lot easier. You just need to write one exam to enter here. In my time there were interviews and the questions used to be a lot more difficult than now.

Faculty

5

All the faculty here are very professional and friendly at the same time. They are expert in the field of their research. It is the premium quality of this institute. You can approach them whenever you like, they will do their best to help you. The student to prof. the ratio is very nice unlike other collages as there are very few students who get selected every year. Most of the faculty are active in research and they have earned their Phd from the named foreign university from famous mathematicians, so their recommendations are very powerful.

Other Applied Colleges

IIT Kharagpur - Indian Institute of Technology - [IITKGP] | Bachelor of Technology [B.Tech] (Electrical Engineering)

I gave JEE advanced when I was already in ISI (as the course at ISI started earlier). I got JEE advanced rank 3982, for that I got the branch (mentioned above) but my main interest was in mathematics that's why I didn't opted for IIT KGP. Also I know ther

Course Curriculum Overview:

Semester 4, my course included the concepts of Radioactivity which has been a fascinating topic for me, and wanting to learn that aspect pf chemistry was a reason that lead me to choose this course. the curriculum is not sufficient or up to date for current further academic pursuits. the course curriculum should include more scientific instruments commonly used in labs and the teachers could preferably be more positive with their attitude and create an atmosphere where learning is chased. where the teaching doesn't feel like they're just doing their job and finishing their hours by reading ppts off a laptop. the exams themselves are fair and well prepared. perfectly balanced to score based on how much you've learnt.

The methods of teaching is good but we need new ways like learning with games. The timing of exam is 3 hours for eights marks, and the difficulty is the benches are not comfortable

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible from the 5th semester. The university also conducts placement drives and skill development workshops. Out of the various companies, some of the reputed ones include Goldman Sachs, KPMG, EY, Deloitte, De Shaw, etc. The average package is around 7 to 8 lakhs but 60% students opt out from placements for further education. I plan to study a master's degree in business economics after my undergraduate studies.

Placement Experience:

Most of the students after completing four years, continue to stay here to get Masters degree after one more year and pursue PhD from world renowned institutions. Very few people (<7/100) per batch will sit for campus placements and most of them will be selected with a good annual package of 30000 at an average. Some students, mostly Physocs majors can give government exams like ICRB, GATE to join ISRO and BARC as scientists
