IISER is an autonomous institution awarding its own Masters and Doctoral degrees. Students are encouraged to carry out research projects during the vacation periods in the first four years of their Masters programme in various research institutes outside IISER.

IISER model of education is concept-based and inquiry-driven, as opposed to the more traditional content-based models. There is a strong emphasis on the interdisciplinary nature of today’s science, and recognition of the importance of research experience.

IISER offers many courses including 5 Year BS-MS programme in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and inter-disciplinary areas, Integrated Ph.D. Programme, Ph.D. Programme, Post Doctoral programme and summer visiting students programme. The institution also offers facilities for doing research in these areas.

The Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research ( IISERs ), are a group of premier science education and research institutes in India. These institutions have been declared by Act of Parliament as institutions of national importance and are intended to be the IITs of basic sciences.

Seven IISERs have been established across the country, namely IISER Kolkata  in West Bengal, IISER Pune in Maharashtra, IISER Mohali in Punjab, IISER Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh, IISER Thiruvananthapuram in Kerala, IISER Tirupati in Andhra Pradesh and IISER Berhampur  in Odisha.

There are three channels of admission. Candidates will be admitted to IISER only through these channels.

1. Kishore Vaigyanik Protsahan Yojana ( KVPY ) channel
