The verdict
Strong fit
At ₹1 lakh total fees from India’s #1 university, the ROI is unmatched. You get a ₹9.5L average CTC and recruiter access to ISRO, ONGC, and environmental consultancies — all within a tight 30-student cohort. Strong pick if research, field work, and climate sciences excite you. Skip if you want a big-batch corporate-tech pipeline instead.
