Hello

Not much difference. The B. Tech courses offered by IIST , the curriculum is similar to that of IIT.

if you are strong passionate about avionics, space, aerospace Engineering. and in future have any idea of pursing higher studies then go for IIST

But if you don't have any specific interest , any highly concise about placements then to be in safer side select IIT .

Hope this Helps

ALL THE BEST!

IIST Thiruvananthapuram and IISc. Bangalore are the two top institutes of India for space research. In order to get admission in these institutes through JEE advanced you need a very good score because their cutoff are very high.

For aerospace engineering in IIST the cut off for general category in JEE advance 2020 was 29.80 % of total marks and in 2019 it was 34.14% .

For aerospace engineering in IISc the cut off in JEE advance 2020 for general category was under AIR 250 .

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%

hi,

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.
