IISER & NISER
Unlike the IISERs, which will be governed by the Ministry of Education, Government of India, NISER operates under the umbrella of the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE).
- IISER you only get one year for your MSc project which in my opinion is not good enough because around 6 months you need to get use to lab and lab work and you can hardly can do some good amount of work in rest 6 months and keeping in mind that you have prepare for other competitive exams like GATE, NET, GRE so you definitely need some good amount of time for that.
- Every IISER does not give summer internship.
- IISERs are funded by Ministry of Education.
- In NISER you get 2 years of time for your MSc project which is quite enough to do a good research work and if you work hard an smartly you can publish a research paper within that time period which is quite an achieIISER', although it definitely depends on your project and stream.
- In NISER you get Rs 20,000 for summer internship which covers books, kindle, hard disk, stationary, living and travel expenses, so without giving any second thought about money you can freely apply in any good college for your summer internship which is quite helpful for your experience and your CV.
- NISER is funded by DAE.
