hello

 the training received during the IISER program equips students to pursue a career in academia, R&D institutes, and science-based industries. ... That being said, there is nothing that stops the students from opting for a career as an engineer after completing a BS-MS from an IISER.

previous year cutoff can be checked at https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/iiser-merit-list-and-cutoff.

hope it helps.
