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

ALL ABOUT IISER PUNE

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.

IIT BOMBAY Dream of a millon

Placement Experience:

Student become eligible for campus placements from their 7th semester. Everyday company that you can think of is there in IIT Bombay and there are some companies that only with IIT Bombay in India. The highest package goes around 4 crores and the average package is around 25 lakhs. Almost everyone who applies for placements is placed and a few students wait for higher studies and some prepare for management exams and some of them prepare for government exams so all the students do not sit for placements.
