| Apr 16, 2020 at 15:48 | comment | added | I_wil_break_wall | My little experience during my Ph.D. tells that it matter to larger extent as in tier 2 not many professors are active in research they are more active in teaching and academic activities. Funding is also less in tier 2. | |
| Apr 16, 2020 at 14:36 | comment | added | Carl Witthoft | Why do you think the "level" of the institution will either enhance or degrade your ability to do research? Separately -- if you are just looking for lots of co-authors, then the size of Uni matters, not its reputation. | |
| Apr 15, 2020 at 20:37 | comment | added | J... | @cag51 11-20 in India is around 600-800 global, comparable to mid-lower tier state universities in the USA, if that's familiar to you. | |

| Apr 15, 2020 at 14:17 | comment | added | cag51♦ | @mast - I think so, if only because I don't have a great intuition for what the 15th best school in India is like, or how much "worse" it is than the tier-1 institutes. | |
| Apr 15, 2020 at 11:40 | comment | added | Mast | @cag51 Would global ranking matter at all? | |

Fixed the question formation - missing auxiliary (or helping) verb - see e.g. <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4yWEt0OSpg&t=1m49s> (see also <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kS5NfSzXfrI> (QUASM)). Removed meta information (this is implied and is not necessary).

| Apr 13, 2020 at 21:56 | comment | added | cag51♦ | You say these institutions are 11-20 in India; what would those rankings work out to globally? | |
| Apr 13, 2020 at 21:56 | comment | added | cag51♦ | "Joining as a faculty" normally implies a permanent position -- is that the case here? | |
