What is the differnce between IISc and IISER?
IISc Bangalore is more than 110 years old and it is the first choice of most students for Science, Engineering, and Technology-related courses. Seven IISER were established recently with the goal of providing quality education in pure science. IISERs were established with the expectations that they would reach global standards in the field of basic sciences and offer intensive research like IISc.
IISERs offer courses such as BS-MS, integrated Ph.D., and Ph.D. to students. Although IISERs were established recently, they have good faculties and research facilities. Getting admission at IISc is more challenging compared to IISERs.
Comments
Among IISc and IISER, the former is the better option.
- IISc is the oldest science institute in India and it is recognized worldwide.
- At IISc, most of the faculties are top researchers and highly experienced. Whereas, faculties in IISER are comparatively young and have less experience.
- IISc takes admission on the basis of JEE Mains, JEE Advanced, NEET, and KVPY. Whereas, IISER takes admission on the basis of JEE Advanced, KVPY, and SCB (IAT). Admissions at IISER are not as competitive as IISc.
However, the research culture at IISER is quite good. If you have the option to join IISc, you should go for it, otherwise, IISER is also a good option.
