What Students Say

Likes

beautiful campus and great off campus life
college offers a lot of freedom to dive deep into any carrier you wanna choose later on
great infrastructure and great peer group

Dislikes

the academic load gets sometimes too much to bear
nothing as such till now but the mess food can be better
the TAs in some of the courses need to chill a little bit

Course Curriculum Overview

2.5

curriculum is moderate and some of the courses are typically tough to understand. student ratio is okayish. Faculties are great in their fields and are very helpful academically. Exams are tough and the grading is relative.

Class Size: 34Course Fees: INR 250000 per year

Internships Opportunities

can't comment much on this but yeah it depends on your department and your CPI if you're not in the circuital branches. Need to gain more insights from seniors before I type something on this so yeah. Also, you can apply for off-campus internships if you think you can't get internships in any of the companies visiting your college.

Placement Experience

3.5

Great placements provided you work for the same and it gets really competitive here during the internship and placement season. The highest packages are generally international packages and they differ each year but the overall average package stays around 21-22 lakhs per annum.

Fees and Financial Aid

scholarships can be availed and they are on the basis of either your parental income or your grades( minimum CPI of 6) so it's easy to avail if you're eligible for the same. Caste-based scholarships are also present. The fee for my course was nearly 250000.

Campus Life

great campus life and great infrastructure. fests include majorly MOOD INDIGO and technical fests like TECHFEST. Both of these fests are known widely and invites a great number of student to explore our campus.

Admission

admission process involves you writing jee mains and after that, you qualify for jee advanced and then if you get a decent enough rank you get a chance to get admission to IIT BOMBAY which is the dream of every jee aspirant.

A brief view into IISER Pune

Likes

High productive discussions are encouraged. The classrooms are well maintained
The labs are well maintained and provides as much time as needed
The mess provides very good food and is quite subsidised

Dislikes

The fee is rising for junior batches which might not be affordable

Placement Experience:

Our college encourages diversification but due to the primary aim being research, most people go for a career in academia but placements are also provided in major companies but the percentage of students going for this choice is low.

IISER PUNE REVIEW

Likes

The college provides flexibility of choosing your own subject of interest or specialization.
It is a highly affordable college with fees much lower than other government colleges as well
There are no restrictions on in timings of hostel on campus.

Dislikes

The college does force you to study subjects like HSS, ECS where they teach sanskrit and earth sciences in first sem which might not be very useful in the future.

Placement Experience:

Students are eligible for sitting for summer internship programmes of iiser pune. Not many software companies visit this college for placements as most of the students of this college sit for higher studies for their PhDs or publish research articles. However a student who wishes to get a job in corporate can get an online course of computer science done and apply for off campus placements as the IISER PUNE tag value along with good skills are more than enough for you to get a high paying job.

Likes

Sports facilities are very good and easy to access.

Dislikes

There is nothing in this college to be disliked

Course Curriculum Overview:

Course contents are good but could be too lengthy for some as the semester is only of 4 months which is not sufficient for such large course contents. The grading is relative which gives fairness to everyone.

Likes

Learning Environment, Curious and Enthusiastic people
Academic support like extra classes, Fun activities like Fest and Karvaan
Great professors, Ta’s , opportunities for internships and placements

Dislikes

Maintaince of the sports facilities can be better
Mess food experience is not too bad not too good
Can show more enthusiasm towards sports activities like IISM which is a tournament

Course Curriculum Overview:

The courses which are offered are very up to date and give and actual conceptual understanding of the topics the courses are such that it is relevant to the real world applicantions and program our mind in thinking in a research and analytical perspective. I think the current course curriculum is enough and really good no need to improve further. Frequency of exams are 2 months Midsems and endsems and quizzes in Between then.

The Brand of IIT Bombay

Likes

The lecture halls are equipped with modern technology, high speed internet connectivity and charging sockets on each desk.
The canteens as well as restaurants inside the campus are quite affordable for college students.
The library is very well maintained and spacious. It's air conditioned and contains all the resources you'll ever need.

Dislikes

Many washrooms in the hostels have still not been renovated.
Official work is quite slow and time consuming. Also the planning of events is not efficient and many times the activities clash with each other.

Placement Experience:

Placement opportunities at IIT Bombay are very good. But getting a high paying job depends on an individual - how skilled and qualified they become after 4 years. If you lay focus on academics and build your personality with all the resources and networks you have IIT Bombay, you'll definitely land at a very good place in your life. There are also startups and business opportunities. Entrepreneurship is encouraged by the departments.

ALL ABOUT IISER PUNE

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.
Campus is very nice and hostel are very well ventilated and about food i like it because there is some hotel like feeling that you pay at that time and eat. You have not to pay it along sem fee also eat what you want like veg , non veg etc.

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.

Placement Experience:

As there was placement in the year 2021 which is nearly 56 percent. Around 20 companies visited campus like TCS, AKASH, CIPLA etc. for placement. But most of student do not like placement becuase they have their plan about research so they do phd and post doc in their career which they think best according to their opinion. But in 2021 the avg. package was 8 lpa and each participant have 2 offer. Also the highest package is 13 lpa, which is very nice as compare. but the main reson is research that's why placement is not so higher.

Likes

Research atmosphere and friendly faculty
Hostel accomodation and meal quality in mess
Infrastructure and high end instruments in advanced laboratories

Dislikes

Small campus with limited area for casual stroll

Placement Experience:

Campus placements although do exist, since it is a research organisation, most students aim for a higher degree and aim to get into top research institutes in the country and abroad. There is an entrepreneurship cell that helps in entrepreneurial activities in campus. After the degree I plan to apply for a PhD project at a reputed university that would help me propel my research career in the subject of my liking
