Dear Summit ,

IISER

Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISERs) are a group of premier public research institutions in India. The institutes were established by the Gov of India through the MHRD to provide quality collegiate education in basic sciences coupled with cutting-edge research at the undergraduate level. The institutes were formally established by the parliamentthrough the National Institutes of Technology, Science Education and Research (Amendment) Act, 2010 (an amendment to the National Institutes of Technology Act, 2007). IISER you on get one year for your Msc project which in my opinion is not good enough because around 6 months you need to get use to lab and lab work and you can hardly can do some good amount of work in rest 6 months and keeping in mind that you have prepare for other competitive exams like GATE ,NET,GRE , so you definitely need some good amount of time for that.Every IISER does not give summer internship. IISERs are funded by MHRD.

  • INSPIRE Scholarship for Higher Education (SHE) is a scholarship programme implemented by the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Government of India. It is a scholarship scheme that comes under Innovation in Science Pursuit for Inspired Research (INSPIRE), a flagship programme of DST.

NISER

In NISER you get 2 years of time for your Msc project which is quite enough to do a good research work and if you work hard an smartly you can publish a research paper within that time period which is quite an achie IISER',although it definitely depends on your project and stream.In NISER you get Rs 20,000 for summer internship which covers books , kindle,hard disk, stationary,living and travel expenses ,so without giving any second thought about money you can freely apply in any good college for your summer internship which is quite helpful for your experience and your CV.

  • NISER has been included in the list of a selected few institutions where students directly qualify to receive a scholarship under the Scholarship for Higher Education (SHE) category of the INSPIRE (Innovation in Science Pursuit for Inspired Research) programme launched by Department of Science & Technology, Government of India.

I hope it will helpful to you

Hello aspirant,

To get into NISER, a candidate needs to qualify NEST which is a compulsory test to give to get admission. A candidate should at least get the minimum percentile which is 60% (that is around 100 marks as the NEST is out of 180). The cut-off changes every year so 60% is the average or minimum percentile required.

Thank you.

Dear Aspirant,

If you want to pursue research then the best institute in India is Indian Institute of Science. The best advantage it has over the IIT-Bombay is that the students there will get to see the research up close.
