What Students Say

Likes

The expansive campus of IISER Bhopal is one of its standout features, offering a vast, open environment that enhances the overall student experience. The ample space allows for a variety of activities and fosters a sense of freedom and community.
The campus at IISER Bhopal is meticulously maintained, with clean, well-kept surroundings that reflect a commitment to providing a healthy and pleasant atmosphere for students. The beautifully landscaped areas add to the serene environment.
Our institute helps foster a sense of research atmosphere among the students and promotes interdisciplinary projects and research work

Dislikes

The clubs and societies at the institute are not much active which becomes an issue if one really wants to connect and build a certain hobby or interest
People here are very much academically inclined which sometimes misses out the practical application aspect.
Since it is a relatively new institute than other institutions of national importance, people are not very aware of it

Course Curriculum Overview

If one wants to enter the domain of science research and development be it in the field of natural sciences, engineering sciences or economic sciences, the BS-MS curriculum builds one's foundation to enter that realm.

Class Size: 400Course Fees: INR 98600 per year

Internships Opportunities

Internship opportunities are great in this institution. Since people are very passionate about their respective domains, it helps them to find internships at various other organisations or institutes easily. Also the LORs provided by the professors turn out to be highly valuable

Placement Experience

Since IISER Bhopal is a research based institute, the placements here are not judged as in aspect of job placements after bachelor's degree, rather people here generally go for higher studies. But regardless the knowledge and experience gained here by people help them apply for any organisation off campus

Fees and Financial Aid

The yearwise fee depends on what batch the student is, basically what year a student joined the institute. Roughly it is around 10000 rs per year including hostel, academic, non academic and other charges. For each new batch joining, there's a slight hike in the fee but overall it remains the same. For the entire integrated BS-MS program, one can expect the fee to be around 500000rs

Campus Life

My overall life at iiserb has been quite good so far. From friends who are involved into similar interests to great professor, from great campus facilities to great weather everything has been great. It is definitely recommended

Hostel Facilities

Hostel facility provided here is good. The infrastructure is taken care of and maintainance work go on time to time. Special dedicated cleaning staff is there who are accessible by the hostel residents anytime.

Hostel Fee: INR 30000 per year

Admission

I as an engineering student chose this college over traditional engineering colleges because of my interest to explore the field of research and development in computer science. This was a major reason for me to select IISER Bhopal

Faculty

The marking scheme exams systems and all depend very much on the faculty we are talking about, but in general the professors here are really among the top researchers and scientists all over the nation

A brief review of IISER Bhopal

Course Curriculum Overview:

Curriculum is very research driven, and it is very flexible too. Course is as per the New Education Policy and is relevant to modern industrial needs. However the Curriculum is all around Pure Sciences, like the B.Sc but just the college is much better than a normal BSc college. First two year is given to students to get along with subjects that they want to study in future, in the third year they choose their Majors. Quizzes are frequent and occurs biweekly, while Exams occurs every month and so.

IISER BHOPAL : A HOME FOR MANY

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum trains students in various research fields, including lab and theory. The course prepares a student to get either a industry position, or PhD position. The course curriculum can be improved by porividing more exposure to students who havent experienced, these fields. Exams are good, easy if youve understood the course content. These exams are based on a wide information of the topic, and are not limited to just one textbook.

My thoughts on IISERB

Course Curriculum Overview:

Since I am just in my first year right now, the courses I have are fairly introductory. But since we have to study PCMB, Earth Science, Programming and a Humanities course just in the first year, it's fairly hard to manage. we have 2 quizzes, a mid sem exam and an end sem exam in each semester typically at the end of each consecutive month (4 month semester). The marking scheme, syllabus, paper pattern, time, difficulty etc are all subject to change according to the professor.

IISERB review by a fresher

Placement Experience:

As it's a research institution, more emphasis is given to academia and research instead of placements. We have an active placement cell, but still, it's lackluster compared to engineering colleges. The average package hovers around 10 lpa, and only a handful of people get placements. Most opt for Phd or an MBA.

Knowing IISERB engineering sciences

Placement Experience:

Mostly from 8th semester onwards students become eligible for sitting in placements and getting preplacement offers in their applied companies. Companies like nomura Bank ,Barclays and Dr Reddy's lab have visited the campus in the past. Mostly all the students get placed because less number of student sitting for the placements. According to last year data around 31 lakhs per annum was the highest package and the average was around 10 lakhs per annum. My plan is to get into a foreign university for my higher studies.

A brief review of IISER Bhopal

I didnt applied to many other colleges, I wanted what this college provided, and got here. The course and faculties, the exposure and Insights we get here was very promising to me. Students can get here by applying to IISER Admission Test (IAT), form of which is released every year in April May.

My thoughts on IISERB

I was interested in Physics from the very beginning of my JEE prep but had no idea that IISERs even exist and thought that if I want to study physics at the best possible level in India, IIT was the way. So I naturally aimed for it but I guess I didn't work hard enough and in the end, I failed to make it there. I only started exploring other options after my JEE attempt when I came accross IAT 2024 registration form. I then researched about IISERs and concluded that this is also a good option for my goal and decided to study properly for then next 20 days (amount of time that was left for my IAT attempt). Finally, I got in....Read More
