IIST Thiruvananthapuram All Questions

Hi,

IIST offers b.tech in engineering physics which is a 4 years course, it doesn't offer b.sc in physics.

It offers courses under :-

B.E/B.tech (total 4 courses, 4-5 years and Entrance Exam required is JEE advanced. )

M.E/ M.tech (total 15 courses, 2-5 years and Entrance Exam required is GATE,JEE advanced. )

Phd (1 course, 5 years, no such entrance exam required.)

Dear student,
Since the total marks of jee advanced keep on changing each year therefore I will mention the percentage of marks to be scored in jee advanced to get admission in iist. For general category it is 20%, for obc it is 18% and for sc/st/pwd it is 10%. Although a student needs to score some minimum marks in physics, chemistry and maths individually. For general it is 5% in each of them, for obc 4.5% and for sc/st/pwd it is 2.5%

see as per ISRO off campus recruitment notifications for position of scientist B , the eligibility criteria is  mentioned in the notification is Candidates must complete BE/B. Tech or equivalent qualification in first class with an aggregate minimum of 65% marks or CGPA 6.84/10. however there is no surety that what will be ISRO on campus eligibility and it subjected to change time to time. however IIST considers as one of the best institute In India, so completing your m.tech from iist would surely help you to secure a job in reputed organization, but you must do hard work and sincere to your studies.
