What Students Say

Likes

Campus is quite good. Seniors are really good. And no ragging at all.
Wifi is unlimited, you can watch YouTube and other websites but gaming is Blocked in this wifi. And porn websites are also blocked and that is quite good for new students
Computer centre is always open 24/7 . You can go there and study on your desktop freely.

Dislikes

Some of professors are not good . Like i was in physics department and i really didn't like some professors because of there attitude and lack of sincerity.
Hostel management is not quite good. Lack of washing machine and improperly managed
Food in the mess. Mess food is not so special there. It is below normal

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Course curriculum are different for different departments students. Like i was in physics department,, they give assignment, quizes and and midsem and endsem and the marks their varry depending on the course teacher decision. I selected physical science and i am quite satisfied with my course selection as the lab experience was very good. Teacher take 2 or 3 teaching assistant to help the students in the classroom, Teaching assistant are actually seniors and they help students in very friendly way.

Class Size: 40Course Fees: INR 90000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

Overall Semester fee per semester( per 6 months) for BS-MS course is approx 43000 to 44000 which includes 7500 for mess establishment charge and hostel and wifi charges. Uf we talk about only tution fee , it is 33000. For sc-st , tution fee is waived. They only have to pay other charges excluding tution fee that is approx 9000 to 10000. If you are qualified kvpy then you get inspire scholarship which is 70000 per year approx. Othan this , if you belong to poor family being obc and general, yes there are funds available for their easiness but you have to ask for it in the academic section. I got admission in 2019 that time per semester fee was 41000 now, in 2024 it is 44000 per semester, now you can easily calculate how much it is increasing per year.

Campus Life

4.5

There are many social clubs in this college. I was not involved in clubs but clubs was performing quite good. Social club like EK PEHEL is fantastic club to help the poor kids around the town. Student of our college teach the poor kids freely and provide books and all necessary things to them.

Hostel Facilities

For bs ms students, it was mandatory to live in the campus hostel. Hostel rooms were big , 2 students per room from 2 year to final year but for first year, 3 students per room. Girl and boys hostel are seperate but they can visit each other room by submitting their id card at the security bench.

Hostel Fee: INR 12000 per year

Admission

I took admission in this college on the basis of jee advanced score. I took admission because i was eligible for the fellowship but i didn't get because the government removed the scheme that year. So i was quite disappointed. I also selected in IIT MANDI bio engineering and INDIAN INSTITUTE OF PETROLEUM (IIP) and i was gett guaranteed placement in iip vizag. It was my wrong decision not to go there.

Faculty

Faculties have seperate appartment to live in the campus. Almost professors are quite good scientist. They have done excellent work in their field. You can visit their lab and can experience the amount of knowledge they have. Some professors lack teacher experience beside they are good scientist. Amd some are excellent in teaching the class.

IISER Kolkata review by student

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course for the first year is easy overall , maybe challenging for biology students because involvement of Maths in the curriculum but they can decrease their load by practicing Maths problems, asking doubts, approaching the instructors or their personal mentors. Otherwise the course is mixed in a good way with theoretical and practical part. Labs are conducted of Physics, Chemistry, Biology and CS in first year. You can choose CS as an minor in higher classes.

Placement Experience:

Campus Placement season starts here in IIT Kharagpur in the end of the pre-final semester or the fisrt semester of the final year. Companies start visiting the campus in the month of December every year for Phase 1, and in January for Phase 2. Top Product based companies like - Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Samsung, Netflix, Uber, Zomato etc..come for placements and give high CTC like 40 LPA and even above for Software profiles. There are various profiles available in companies coming for placements - software, Data, machine Learning, Finance, Product, consulting, UI/UX designing and so on. Almost 80 % students get placed in our college every year and number of offers is as close as 1800 every year. Many students get pre-placement offers as well, after the completion of their internships and they are not eligible for placements. I am planning to sit for palcements this year and aiming for software, data analysis, consulting and UI/UX designing roles.

I was a NEET aspirant but couldn't make it their due to high cutoff and latest year scam. I decided to choose BAMS college but got a good rank in IISER Aptitude Test so decided to come here. This was because IISER is always a good option for good exposure in the world of research and IISER Kolkata is one those prestigious institution. For admission in an IISER one has to clear an entrance test called IAT(IISER Aptitude Test). Secure good rank and should clear the cutoff. After clearing the cutoff one can secure a seat in one of the 7 IISERs, IISc Bangalore, IIT-Madras(for one specific course)....Read More
