Master of Statistics (M.Stat.)
70% of students from our department get placed every year in MNCs, and they have a perfect internship period before applying full-time. The top companies that came last year were Google, PNB Bank Services, SBI Bank Official Services, and IT. 46% and 76% are the last 2 years of internship percentage. | Wi-Fi and labs are pretty much professionally maintained and there are 6 or 7 Wi-Fi routers and networks all over the campus. But they need to improve the library management system; the queue is sometimes too long. And there are only a few books in the current edition on statistics. Food quality is fine but I can't say too much about it as sometimes the quality changes. | Teachers are helpful and there are so many faculty members available for each core subject, and most importantly, our teachers are friends with us as they are young, as we are maybe 5 or 8 years old. Another thing not to be forgotten is that statistics are important for business analysis so they are very relevant to the course curriculum. Exams are standard; always read, study and be your best. | Good placements happened in 2021 and 2022 and it is now still ongoing. | Campus crowds are always higher in the summer and lower in the winter. I love statistics, so I took it for future preference.

Stats (Hons) from ISI so I directly got admission in this course without any interview or selection process, but in case a student is not from the same they need to undergo examination and selection process. Job opportunities at our campus are very appreciable as industries top companies come to the campus and select candidates for most interesting roles with compatible salaries.

College Infrastructure: The college is more than 100 years old but the infrastructure is quite well maintained even till today. Specially the biology laboratories and computer lab are like that of world class research institutes. | Academics: Students get stipend for their good academic performance here (60% plus). All the professors are PhD holders mostly from top most indian universities excellent in science. Many of them are alumnis of the college itself.The curriculum is very theoretical but our course is very much industry-oriented. But passing semester exams here is never a cake walk like engineering collegea. | Placements: ISI has the track record of placing 100% of the applied students.

So the return of investment is high. Student get shopping packages after graduation and decent stipends also during their studies.The hostel and mess fees along with personal expenses may cost 40000 a year altogether. | Campus Life: Campus life Is boring. As there are not many students in a single batch hence there are very less interactions among the students. People taking interest in co curricular activities are very much less . There are no good eating places inside campus as well. Also limited sports facilities are present that too only for football and cricket. | Others: Come only if you are passionate about maths.

Our college's pass percentage is 98%. | Overall, it was a fantastic experience .

Bachelor of Statistical Data Science (Hons)
Our course is started this year only, hence no placement record is available. But considering past placement records of other courses, ISI has an impeccable number. The top recruiters were Adobe, Amazon, Apple, Google, BlackRock, Morgan Stanley, optiver etc. For roles like data scientist / analyst. | The class is well equipped with all modern facilities. It has 2 air conditioners, 2 speakers , 1 desktop for the teacher, and 2 s project screen for students. Along with that, a whiteboard is also there. For the BSDS course, there is no hostel accommodation provided. | The teachers are so well experienced and much more qualified in general. Each class is of 1 hour and 20 minutes, and each tutorial class is of 1 hour duration. The course curriculum is much relevant to modern-day industry jobs. The course is introduced for the purpose of making students industry-ready and also eligible for higher academic research. The semester exams are quite difficult in the sense that it can't be passed just by studying before the exam like in engineering colleges. | Knowing the new BSDS course of ISI Kolkata | The gender ratio is much worse, and the campus is not well maintained.

Bachelor of Statistical Data Science (Hons)
Our batch is the first batch of BSDS course, hence there is no placement record available as of now because we will be the first graduation batch. But taking into consideration the placements of other courses, ISI has nearly 100% track record in all of them. Last year the highest package was 63 LPA and last to last year it was 89 LPA for MS QROR and MS QE courses respectively. The top companies visiting the campus are Adobe, Morgan Stanley, TCS, Cognizant, FAANG Companies, etc. | For Bachelor of Statistical Data Science course, there is no hostel accommodation in any of the locations Kolkata, Bangalore, or Delhi. The classrooms are well-equipped with all the modern facilities like Wi-Fi, speakers, and projectors for the hybrid nature of the course. The quality of the mess food is quite good as expected from a hostel mess. The menu covers both North Indian and South Indian food styles. | The faculty here are very much well-experienced in their particular field of research and they have many publications in highly reputed journals. The course is quite relevant for making students industry-ready in the field of data science. The semester exams are quite difficult in the sense that one cannot pass exams just by studying one day for the night like engineering colleges. Proper efforts need to be put in to get good grades as there is no relative grading system. | ISI Kolkata BSDS (Hons.) Programme. | I chose this course because it was a perfect blend of Maths and Computer Science. The course would have been better if it was in proper offline mode rather than being in hybrid mode. The campus life *** because there are not many events, the gender ratio is less, and in general, there is nobody to talk to casually.
Bachelor of Statistical Data Science Hons
College Infrastructure: The course is newly launched in hybrid mode and is run in parallel across 3 centres i.e. Kolkata, Bangalore and Delhi But the good part is all the faculty members keep visiting different centres throughout the semester. | Academics: Academic standards here at Indian Statistical Institute is quite high. The semester exams are very challenging and need great efforts to pass with flying colours. The faculties are active researchers in their respective mathematical fields and are hence are great source of knowledge and motivation. | Placements: ISI has a 100% track record when it comes to placements. As our BSDS course is newly launched it has no past record but as it is an industry oriented course so the expectations are high. Most probably the undergraduates will be allowed to sit for placements along with the masters students. | Value for Money: The course fees is around 2 lakhs per year which is pretty decent as compared to IITs but the only problem is there's no hostel accommodation. Hence even if you spend so much you have to spend more on food and accommodation differently apart from your tuition fees . | Campus Life: Campus life is not that great . As the batch sizes are small there is very small fraction of people who are interested in other things like sports and extra curricular activities apart from studies. Still the institute club hosts some monthly events . There is also gym and a football ground inside the campus for the students . | Others: Only come to ISI iff you are passionate for maths and Don't come just because you are good at solving jee level problems. After coming to ISI , surviving without having any backlogs can become a really tedious task for you if you are not passionate for the subject.
Bachelor of Statistics Hons
College Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is quite nice as the institute is more than 90 years old and well maintained. All the classrooms including ours contains projector screens white boards digital boards as well as Wi-Fi accessibility. | Academics: I am studying Bachelor of statistics honours because the course is quite theoretically good to pursue. The quality of teaching is pretty nice as all the professors and mostly pass-outs of reputed research Institutes. Our course at masters level makes Students job ready not at bachelors level. | Placements: The track record of ISI in placements is unmatchable although the institute does not allow bachelor students to sit for placements except Bachelor of statistical data science. But at masters level the placements are very nice. The mean package is quite high ,sometimes around 20 LPA. Last year highest package was 63 LPA from SQC department. | Value for Money: We get stipend for securing more than 60% in a semester and maintaining more than 75% attendance. We don't pay anything to the institute for our studies rather we get stipend. Also at the end of the semester if someone secured top positions then the institute offers prize money of 2000 as well. Hence the education is worth it. | Campus Life: Campus life is very poor and below average. Limited sports facilities are available. Even the institute does not have separate grounds for Major sports like cricket and football. Students use the same ground for both. The annual fest is called integration but in 2025 it's not being organised.
