I want to pursue teaching.Can I pursue teaching after IISER OR IISC ?
Greetings!
If you are someone who loves science and Research then iiser is the best for you . IISERs offer the best training in basic sciences and unparalleled exposure to advanced analytical techniques, the fact that these Institutes are relatively new is the main reason for the lack of awareness about their existence. After doing a PhD, post your BS-MS course, you can join any CSIR labs or University or research lab as a staff scientist or principal investigator.
If you want to teach in future, even then iiser is good for you , After completing your BS-MS, you can teach at coaching classes like FIT JEE, etc. This is considered a lucrative job as the pay packages are good. Teaching job in any school/University after qualifying the requisite exams like UPSC, B. Ed, NET, etc.
Thankyou
Well, although most of the students of IISERs apply for PhD in various universities of India and the world, but a handful of them do go for placements in their final year.
They get placed mostly in the R & D departments of various companies.
In the year in which I joined IISER-P, around 8 students got placed in LAKME R & D department with package of 1 crore.
In the very same year, one student from IISER-K also got placed with a similar package abroad.
So, although out of 200 students of various IISERs(at my time maximum intake of 5 IISERs was 200 each), only about 10–15 get placed but packages are generally good.
But, if you just want to earn money, join an engineering college and clear CAT. You will earn more. Teaching is a good option.
All the best :)
