Overall: Admission to the B. Sc. program at IISc Bangalore takes place via 4 modes: JEE Mains, JEE Advanced, IAT and NEET. Till 2021 there was a KVPY mode of entry but it was replaced by IAT (IISER Aptitude test) since last year. Cutoffs for different categories via different exams canbe checked at official website of the UG department of IISC: bs-ug.iisc.ac.in. The only eligibility criterias are to successfully pass class 12 examinations from a recognised board and to clear the cutoff of any of the 4 exams mentioned above in your category. Applications for the program are to filled at the official webiste in april-may every year. If you clear the cutoff then the institute will reach you on your official email-ID with a provisional offer letter and you will be invited for an in-person counselling session to the Bangalore campus in June. There are 3 rounds of counselling, and at the in person counselling you are given all the information about the program, fees and future prospects.

Infrastructure: The college has a very vibrant social life. There are 2 fests held across the year. The first fest is RHAPSODY, the annual fest of IISc held inseptember of every year. It includes several concert Apart from that, several smaller libraries like Ranade library are found in departments. There are several music, dance and educational clubs on campus which regularly host events and competitions. There are regular club meetings and academic excursions which make laerning fun.

Faculty: The internship opportunities are open second year onwards and are very easy to obtain. Two types of internships are available: industrial and academic. Academic internships involve working under a professor with his team on their project over the course of a summer break. For this the student can approach any professors on campus, or even at other universities in India or abroad. However, these internships generally do not involve any stipends. Industrial internships are provided by the campus placement cell and generally involve a stipend depending on the job you get. Several companies come on campus to take interns for industrial research training.

Hostel: The hostel facilities provided by the campus are top notch. The hostels have been divided into blocks, with UG students being assigned E block, U block and S block. The rooms are well equipped with beds, fans, cupboards, and lights. The rooms in E block are twin sharing, while single occupancy rooms are available in U & S block. Room allotment is random. The hostels are assigned on the first day of coming to campus and are very cheap at 5000 per month. The hostels are located at a central location of the campus so that classrooms are nearby. The food provided at the campus is ofexcellent quality. There are 5 messes A and B be North Indian veg and North Indian non veg, C and D being South Indian veg and South Indian nonveg,and E mess providing a composite diet. The menus are decided by a mess committee elected from the students by the students. 4 meals are provided everyday, breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner. Special items are made on festivals, dessert and beverages are there.

Deep into Academics
By Debanjan Saha
Feb 12, 2024 11:43:57

Overall: This college is already well known for it's reputation. The college atmosphere is more serious compared to IIT since greater number of Masters and PhD students. I think I don't need to say anything about academic part. The food is great, better than all IIT. You can choose your mess based on the region of India you come from. Hostels are decent. Campus is great.

Placement: A major portion of the students don't look up to placements since they join foreign universities for higher studies. Although placements are great and major companies come to have the cream of the country.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is the best in India you can find. Every type of labs and workplaces. New infra are also being built. Also has the best library with huge collection of books and journals.

Faculty: You know the best professors of India come to IISc. They will be better than any other colleges. On a key note, good in research does not imply good at teaching. So in some courses you might get a good researcher as your prof but he might not be that good at teaching. But don't worry as there will be your nerdy friends to help you out.

Hostel: The undergraduate students get decent hostels. The best hostels are given to the PhD and Masters students. New hostels are being built, after which I think the hostel problem will be resolved. Also the institute increased intake in recent years, so there is a bit of lack of accommodation. So small personal rooms are being shared by two persons, which is not the worse but is pretty bad.

IISC, Bangalore is the Best Choice
By Mayuk
Mar 31, 2021 0:07:47
4.5

Overall: IISc is a temple of science. Studying on this campus is a great opportunity. We get exposure to all disciplines of science and mild exposure to Humanities. I DON'T agree with what others feel about IISc making it sound like a nonsense course. In fact, the course does not focus on a single subject but rather takes an interdisciplinary approach to the sciences. I feel that this approach is crucial nowadays as the various disciplines of science do not have a clear-cut boundary. This is the 21st century and just studying one discipline of science won't do any good to you. A bit of everything is always better.

My Experience at IISC, Bangalore
By Ashish
Mar 31, 2021 0:07:02
4.5

Overall: You have a lot of extra-curricular activities that you can take part in. Almost every sport, cultural activity, etc have clubs which you can join. You can start learning instruments, you can volunteer to teach children, etc. It has been an amazing 2 months for me here. Classes like humanities provide us a platform to interact with eminent people and put forth our opinions and debate about them, like for example the ethics of science and stuff. There are absolutely zero raggings on the campus. The seniors have been great, have become great friends, and help whenever needed.
