The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) was established in 1909 as an aftereffect of the joint endeavours of Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata, the Government of India, and the Maharaja of Mysore.

IISc has 39 offices, units, or focuses, 3500 understudies, and around 500 scholarly and experimental staff, upheld by 600 managerial faculty. Out of this populace of understudies, around 2200 are in different PhD programs, very nearly 900 are enlisted for different Masters degrees, while around 400 are enrolled in the recently settled, research arranged, four-year Bachelor of Science (Research) system, of which the primary group will graduate in 2015.

In the late years, with new focuses, for example, CiSTUP (The Center of Infrastructure, Sustainable Transportation, and Urban Planning), the Divecha Center for Climate Change, the Center for Earth Sciences, the Center for NeuroScience, the Center for Excellence in Nano Science and Engineering (CeNSE), and the Robert Bosch Center for Cyber Physical Systems (RBCCPS), the Institute has overwhelmingly advanced between disciplinary examination.

Degrees

Degrees offered by the foundation might be extensively grouped into two classifications: Degrees by Research (PhD, incorporated PhD, BS (center science and interdisciplinary points) and MS (Engg.)), and degrees by coursework (ME/MTech/M.Mgt/MDes).

Undergrad Program

An Undergraduate project was imagined, for understudies who had finished Class XII, amid the Centenary Celebrations in 2009. The principal clump of understudies was conceded in 2011. The system offers a four-year Bachelor of Science (Research) course in six orders, in particular Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science, Material Science, Mathematics and Physics.

Rankings

IISc is positioned 147 all inclusive in QS World Rankings of top colleges in 2015.[53] IISc has additionally been positioned sixth in the criteria of examination by the Times Higher Education Rankings for the BRICS and Emerging Economies Rankings 2016
