An integrated BS MS from IISER or B.S from IISc.Which one is better?

Sudeshna Dutta 2nd Jul, 2019

Hello Riya,

A BS-MS degree is like no other. It is amazingly liberating and diversifying. You can take up a variety of career options with this in your hand. You won’t be constricted by the usual border lines available to most other traditional degrees - you don’t have to necessarily go for specialization, or write the GRE to get an MS admit abroad, or get a job via campus placements, or do the MBA, or start preparing for the UPSC.

In fact, you can take up any of these, depending on your interest and aptitude.

The BS-MS program gives you a very unique training in multi-disciplinary sciences which makes you highly qualified to venture into a variety of career openings. A number of answers to this question have mentioned specific examples, so give those a read.

Compared to a traditional science graduate, a BS-MS graduate from IISER has superior technical knowledge, hands-on experience, exposure to inter-disciplinary research, and wider scope for further growth. This is made possible due to the one-of-a-kind structuring of a the curriculum which serves to make one a dynamic, versatile researcher with a potentially wider variety of interest areas.

The ideal career path after your BS-MS, if you are interested in academic and research would most probably be a PhD. And it is here that you’ll have an edge greater than what your peers from other programs will, mainly for the reasons mentioned above.

However, if you are really looking to diverge from this line, once again, opportunities abound. And the best part is that the multi-disciplinary education across subjects you will have received during your BS-MS training will ensure that you are able to quickly adapt and fit in almost anywhere.

IISERs currently offer an amazingly wide variety of courses, and a number of these are mandatory for students - for instance, two years of core courses in PCMB (yes, all four), Earth and Environmental Sciences, Economics, etc. - and then, your major subject, as well as multiple options for you to take minors as per your choice and interest. In short, you’ll be getting an amazing platform to explore your interests, your aptitude, and pursue a career based on these.


Hope this helps,

All the Best!

For aerospace engineering indian institute of science, bengaluru is best? Or indian institute of space science, thiruvananthapuram is best?

Anirudh Bhat 28th Jun, 2019
Hi
Firstly speaking, I would say both these institutes are really good and have built a reputation for themselves in India. Also aerospace engineering is a really competitive course so you will need a lot of passion to complete this degree. So I would say it's mainly on how you approach the subject rather than the universities. Both these universities have really good infrastructure, faculty, and other facilities. But speaking of current standings Indian institute of science Bangalore is rank number 1 so if you are selected in IISC Bangalore I would recommend you choose that over Indian institute of space science Thiruvananthapuram.
Good luck

How many seats are available in IISc Bangalore for B.Sc biology?

Shruti Patwal 27th Jun, 2019

Dear Candidate,

IISc Bangalore is one of the best research colleges in India. It has an intake of 120 students. However, the number of students called in for counselling is slightly greater than 120. For admission to IISc Bangalore, a student needs to clear the KVPY exam. By the end of the academic plan or year, no batch remains at a mark of 120. Due to less marks few students may leave the college in the first year itself.

Compare msr in iit delhi,PhD in iisc and phd in ncbs(tifr) in biology. Which will be best?

ojaswiyolo Student Expert 25th Jun, 2019

Hello

your decision to pursue post-graduate education would definitely have a significant impact on your long-term career prospects

As you may be aware, IIT Delhi was recently recognized as an Institution of Eminence (IoE) by the Government of India.At IIT Delhi, most of the academic Departments/Centres/Schools offer M. Tech. and Ph.D. programmes, while some of them also offer an M.S. (R) programme. Major policy changes now permit the student to switch from one programme to another any time after one semester of joining. For example, a candidate joining an M. Tech. programme can apply for the switch to a Ph. D. programme in the same Department (or even in another eligible Department), after completing 12 credits of courses with a minimum GPA of 8.0. All his/her credits, if relevant to the new programme, can be transferred and thus make his/her transfer to the new programme as a student with advanced standing. Similar, flexibility exists for switching between other programmes. For more details please read http://www.iitd.ac.in/brochure/information-brochure.pdf

Now for IISC:IISC is India's premier research institute. They have latest facilities and well equipped labs. Most of the faculty members are quite friendly and are also doing good research. Students end up spending 6-7 years on an average for a PhD. There have been issues regarding the administration which is reportedly bad but it ofcourse would look good on your resume if you do your PhD from IISC. Also it is important to have a good advisor/ instructor throughout the PhD journey as during it you would have to produce papers having quality and in good quantity.

Moving on to NCBS: It used to be a part of IISC but has now relocated to GKVK. They both almost provide the same facilities but obviously IISC has seen it for more number of years, is old and known to almost every person in the science domain. IISC has world ranking in life science but NCBS has reportedly higher funding and special focus on biology. One major factor that enhances the quality of life on campus is their on-campus child-care and after-school program. They aim to provide a facility that recognizes the needs of working parents while providing children with a nurturing environment. Life is already hard for a PhDstudent and there is cut throat competition in IISC so if you want to have peace while doing your PhD you might consider NCBS as a better option.

All this being said all the three are amazing in their own ways however if I were to choose I would not go just by the name and fame. I would have chosen NCBS as it is primarily foccused on life science research but what I choose should not be important. It is your decision so make it on your own. All the best.
