IISc is widely regarded as India's finest institution in its field, and has made significant contribution to advanced computing, space, and nuclear technologies. The Institute was the first to introduce Masters programmes in engineering. It has also started integrated Ph.D. programmes in Biological, Chemical, Physical and Mathematical Sciences for science graduates.
Four-year Bachelor of Science (B.S.) Programme:
Admitted students take core courses in Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, Engineering and Humanities in the first one and half years (I, II and III semesters). Specialization is introduced rigorously in the following year and a half (IV, V and VI semesters). The students are free (and are also encouraged) to choose electives from streams other than their own specialization during this time. The course culminates with a research oriented project in the fourth year (VII and VIII semesters) supervised by a faculty.
