NIMHANS Bangalore Placements 2025: Highest Package, Average Package, Top Recruiters

Hello,

At NIMHANS (Bengaluru), hostel facilities are available for research staff like JRFs, SRFs, RAs, and project fellows, but allotment depends on availability and priority.

Facilities:

• Separate hostels are available for male and female research staff (like Bhavani Hostel and Staff Hostels).

• Rooms are generally shared and include basic amenities like bed, table, and Wi-Fi.

• Accommodation is limited, so not everyone is guaranteed a room.

Application Process:

1. After joining, submit a hostel application form to the Hostel Office or Warden.

2. Attach a copy of your appointment letter and ID proof.

3. Rooms are allotted based on seniority, joining date, and availability.

4. Pay the hostel fee (if applicable) and follow NIMHANS hostel rules.

Yes, NIMHANS provides hostel rooms for research staff, but you must apply through the hostel office soon after joining since seats are limited and allotted on a priority basis.

Hope you understand.

Hello,

Here is a simple comparison by which you can choose one of these :

SCTIMST (Trivandrum)

• Good for public health research and hospital-based studies.

• Strong in community health and health technology.

• Smaller MPH batch, more personal attention.

• Kerala location may offer local public health exposure.

NIMHANS (Bengaluru)

• More recognised nationally for public health and mental health.

• Strong faculty and research in epidemiology and biostatistics.

• Larger network and better exposure to diverse public health projects.

• Bengaluru offers more internships and job opportunities post-MPH.

So, SCTIMST is better for personalised learning; NIMHANS is better for wider exposure.

Hope it helps !

hi,

Congrats on getting MPH admission at NIMHANS! It’s actually a really good institute, especially if you’re interested in mental health, neurology, or public health connected to these areas. If you want to focus on mental health and related public health work, NIMHANS is honestly one of the best places in India.

But if you’re aiming for a wider exposure in public health—like working in big hospitals, international health projects, community medicine, or policy making—then AIIMS or JIPMER might give you more variety and bigger opportunities. AIIMS usually has the best overall exposure, more research options, and a stronger public health network across India and even abroad.
