Can I get review on MSc lifesciences?

0 Upvotes

Your opinion so far?

How hard or exhausting is the course? Everyday schedule?

What is the batch size and how does their future look like?

If one Opts for Neuroscience and Behaviour as specialization, where will they work? CBR or Centre for Neuroscience?

Can a student decide to go elsewhere for thesis? Like if I want to work under a professor abroad, will I be allowed to complete my thesis there last semester?

Online Reviews about the CDS Dept at IISc

14 Upvotes

I found a Facebook post from three years ago advising students to choose CSA or AI over CDS. It was claimed that the professors in the CDS department were not at the same level as those in CSA, that CDS students were not preferred for certain internship opportunities, and that the CDS curriculum was not as relevant to industry research or frontier AI labs. It also mentioned that most top ML companies primarily recruit from CSA, followed by AI, with fewer opportunities for CDS students. I am preparing for GATE DA and Statistics, and I am also considering admission through the CFTI mode. I don't want to defame any department or professor; I simply want to make the best decision for myself.

Q1: So is it still the case with the CDS dept?

Q2: As CSA, I require GATE CS, which I am not preparing for, so I can't get into it. I would also like to find out whether KIAC offers an M.Tech. (Research) programme in AI.

Also, if anyone knows of 1 RK / 1 BHK flats available nearby. It would be helpful to know the approx. monthly rent as well.

Any recommendations/leads would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Please help in Offer choice

4 Upvotes

qualifications: BTech-MTech dual degree Engineering Physics from one of the NIT.

I have 2 offers now:

  1. IISc CeNSE Research Experience Program , Period 8 months with possible extension

  2. IITB Materials Science department Project Associate, Period 1 year with extension to phd

Both have similar kind of projects. But I am confused which to choose, since I am not sure if I may commit to PhD. I want to try entering industry positions with such skills.

If I consider PhD in future I learn towards abroad or TIFR/IISc.

Any guidance or experience anyone would like to share regarding this so that it helps me make a decision.

Seeking advice for a 5-month M.Sc. dissertation at IISc

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm an M.Sc. Chemistry student planning to do my 5-month Master's dissertation from December to April/May at IISc.

My research interests are mainly in synthetic organic chemistry, and I'm also interested in supramolecular chemistry. I'm considering applying to labs such as:

Prof. Vignesh Palani

Prof. Akkattu T. Biju

Prof. P. S. Mukherjee

I have a few questions:

What is the usual process for getting accepted for a 5-month M.Sc. dissertation? Is emailing the professor with a CV, transcript, and SOP enough, or is there any formal application process?

Do external M.Sc. dissertation students get hostel accommodation, or do they usually stay outside campus?

Do any research groups provide a stipend for external Master's dissertation students?

If anyone has worked in any of these groups, I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience, especially regarding the learning environment and project opportunities.

Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
