[[File:Iisc-Founder.jpg|right|thumb|[[Jamsetji Tata]], founder]]

After an accidental meeting between [[Jamsetji Tata]] and [[Swami Vivekananda]], on a ship in 1893 where they discussed Tata's plan of bringing the steel industry to India, Tata wrote to Vivekananda five years later: "I trust, you remember me as a fellow-traveller on your voyage from Japan to [[Chicago]]. I very much recall at this moment your views on the growth of the ascetic spirit in India... I recall these ideas in connection with my scheme of Research Institute of Science for India, of which you have doubtless heard or read."<ref>

Impressed by Vivekananda's views on science and leadership abilities, Tata wanted him to guide his campaign. Vivekananda endorsed the project with enthusiasm, and Tata, with the aim of advancing the scientific capabilities of the country, constituted a provisional committee to prepare a plan for setting up of an institute of research and higher education. The committee presented a draft proposal to [[Governor-General of India|Viceroy]] [[George Curzon, 1st Marquess Curzon of Kedleston|George Curzon]] on 31 December 1898.<ref name="history">{{cite web | url=http://cts.iisc.ernet.in/IISc_History.html | title=A Historical Perspective | publisher=Indian Institute of Science | access-date=19 October 2012 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130528235745/http://cts.iisc.ernet.in/IISc_History.html | archive-date=28 May 2013}}</ref> Subsequently, [[Sir William Ramsay]], a [[Nobel Laureate]], was called on to propose a suitable place for such an institution who suggested Bangalore as the best location.

The land and other facilities for the institution were donated by [[Maharaja of Mysore|Maharaja]] [[Krishna Raja Wadiyar IV|Krishnaraja Wadiyar IV]] and Tata. The maharaja donated about {{convert|371|acre}}<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.iisc.ernet.in/content_Aboutiisc.html |title= :: Indian Institute of Science ::|website=iisc.ernet.in |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111230014431/http://www.iisc.ernet.in/content_Aboutiisc.html |archive-date=30 December 2011}}</ref> of land; Tata gave several buildings towards the creation of IISc.

The constitution of the institute was approved by Viceroy [[Gilbert Elliot-Murray-Kynynmound, 4th Earl of Minto|Gilbert Elliot-Murray-Kynynmound]], and the necessary "vesting order" to enable it to function was signed on 27 May 1909.<ref name=hindu>{{cite news|last=Warrier|first=BS|title=The IISc stamp on science research|url=http://www.thehindu.com/education/research/the-iisc-stamp-on-science-research/article2844709.ece|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130204052632/http://www.thehindu.com/education/research/the-iisc-stamp-on-science-research/article2844709.ece|url-status=dead|archive-date=4 February 2013|access-date=22 August 2015|newspaper=The Hindu|date=30 January 2012|location=Chennai, India}}</ref> Early in 1911, the maharaja laid the foundation stone of the institute, and on 24 July, the first batch of students were admitted to the Departments of General and Applied Chemistry under Norman Rudolf and Electro-Technology under Alfred Hay. Within two months, the Department of Organic Chemistry was opened. In 1958, the institute was [[deemed university|deemed a university]] by the [[University Grants Commission (India)|University Grants Commission of India]].<ref name=Deemed>{{cite web|url=https://www.ugc.ac.in/oldpdf/Deemed%20University/Deemed%20University%20Final%20List%20as%20on%2006-10-2017.pdf |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20221009/https://www.ugc.ac.in/oldpdf/Deemed%20University/Deemed%20University%20Final%20List%20as%20on%2006-10-2017.pdf |archive-date=2022-10-09 |url-status=live|title=List of Institutions of higher education which have been declared as Deemed to be Universities as on 06.10.2017|date=6 October 2017|access-date=30 October 2017|publisher=[[University Grants Commission (India)|University Grants Commission]]}}</ref>

At the time of the inception of IISc in 1909, [[Morris Travers]], [[Sir William Ramsay]]'s co-worker in the discovery of the noble gases, became its first director. For Travers, this was a natural continuation of his work on the institute, since he had played a role in its founding. The first [[Indian people|Indian]] director was the Nobel Laureate [[Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman|Sir C.V. Raman]].<ref name="hindu" />

The institute was the first to introduce a master's programs in engineering. It has also started integrated doctoral programmes in biological, chemical, physical, and mathematical sciences for natural science graduates.<ref name="history"/>

== Campus ==
The institute's Main Campus is fully residential and is spread over 400 acres of land in the heart of Bangalore city. It is located in the north of Bangalore, about 6 kilometres from [[Bangalore City Railway Station]] and [[Kempegowda Bus Station]], on the way to [[Yeshwantpur]]. It is connected with city's [[Namma Metro]]  Sandal Soap Factory metro station and by various bus stations of [[Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation]]. The institute is about 30 kilometres southwest of [[Kempegowda International Airport]]. As a research hub, it is in the vicinity of a number of other research institutes, [[Raman Research Institute]], [[Indian Space Research Organisation]] (ISRO), [[Institute of Wood Science and Technology|Wood Research Institute]] and [[Central Power Research Institute]] (CPRI), are close to IISc. Most of these institutes are connected to IISc by a regular shuttle bus service.<ref name="iiss_campus">{{cite web | url=http://www.icors2012.org/about_iisc.html | title=23rd International Conference on Raman Spectroscopy | access-date=19 October 2012 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120420031308/http://www.icors2012.org/about_iisc.html | archive-date=20 April 2012}}</ref> 

The main campus houses more than 40 departments marked by routes such as the Gulmohar Marga, the Mahogany Marga, the Badami Marga, the Tala Marga, the Ashoka Marga, the Nilgiri Marg, the Silver Oak Marg, the Amra Marga and the Arjuna Marga.<ref name="campus">{{cite web | url=http://www.iisc.ernet.in/faculty-corner/prospectivefaculty-whyiisc.php | title=In the heart of Bangalore | access-date=23 October 2012 | archive-date=10 October 2012 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121010210457/http://www.iisc.ernet.in/faculty-corner/prospectivefaculty-whyiisc.php | url-status=dead }}</ref> The campus features six canteens (cafeterias), a gymkhana (gymnasium and sports complex), a football ground and a cricket ground, five dining messes (halls), one multi cuisine restaurant, nine men's and five women's hostels (dormitories), an [[air strip]], a library, two shopping centers and residences of the faculty members and other staff, besides other amenities.

[[File:IISC Bangalore 01.jpg|thumb|One of the oldest buildings of IISc]]

The architecture of the Main Building, which today houses the administration and the Faculty Hall, is classical in style, fronted by a grey, handsome tower. In front of it stands the work of [[Gilbert Bayes]], a monument erected in the memory of [[J. N. Tata]]. At its feet is an inscription that serves to remind future generations of the generosity of Jamsetji Tata and the persistence with which he worked for the welfare of India. The building, as one of the prominent landmarks of Bangalore, was designed by C. F. Stevens and Company of Bombay in 1912–13.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.bangalorebest.com/WondersOfBangalore/IISC_Bangalore.asp | title=Building as landmark of Bangalore | access-date=17 April 2013 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130403095000/http://www.bangalorebest.com/WondersOfBangalore/IISC_Bangalore.asp | archive-date=3 April 2013}}</ref>
===J. R. D. Tata Memorial Library===
[[File:Jrdtml2.jpg|thumb|alt=a collegiate architecture-style building with some trees around it. |The Main Library of Indian Institute of Science]]

J. R. D. Tata Memorial Library is the main library of IISc. Apart from the main library, the institute also has independent departmental libraries. The library moved into the present premises in January 1965, built out of grants provided by [[University Grants Commission (India)|University Grants Commission]] (UGC), in commemoration of the golden jubilee celebrations of the institute in 1959. In 1995, the library was renamed as "[[J. R. D. Tata]] Memorial Library". The [[National Board for Higher Mathematics]] (NBHM) has recognised this library as Regional Center for Mathematics for the south region and continued to award a special grant towards subscription of Journals in Mathematics.

The annual budget of the library is over Rs. 100&nbsp;million<ref>{{cite web|title=About J R D Tata Memorial Library|url=http://www.library.iisc.ernet.in/About.aspx|access-date=17 February 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120219141034/http://www.library.iisc.ernet.in/about.aspx|archive-date=19 February 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref> (almost US$2,500,000) of which subscription towards periodicals alone is about Rs. 90&nbsp;million. The library currently receives over 1,734 periodical titles, of which 1381 are subscribed, while the remaining titles are received as gratis or on an exchange basis. About 600 titles are accessible through the library subscription. In addition, over 10,000 journals are accessible online, thanks to INDEST subscription. The total holdings of the library exceed 411,000 documents.
The buildings for the metallurgy and aerospace departments were designed by the German architect [[Otto Königsberger]] in 1940.<ref>Rachel Lee (2012) [http://dev.abejournal.eu/index.php?id=356 Constructing a Shared Vision: Otto Koenigsberger and Tata & Sons.] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140107143526/http://dev.abejournal.eu/index.php?id=356 |date=7 January 2014 }} ABE Journal 2</ref>

A 10th century ''hulibete veeragallu'', or hero stone commemorating a fight with a tiger, was discovered on the IISc campus in the late 1970s by two children of a professor who lived there.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://connect.iisc.ac.in/2020/03/the-land-on-which-we-stand/ |title=The Land on Which We Stand |website=Connect |access-date=2024-10-27}}</ref>  Veeragallus were typically erected to honor individuals who died in acts of valor, usually civilians.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.karnataka.com/history-and-heritage/hero-stones-veeragallu/ |title=Hero Stones (Veeragallu) |website=Karnataka.com |access-date=2024-10-27}}</ref> They are found mostly in the Karnataka region, dating from the 8th to 17th centuries.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hero_stone |title=Hero stone |website=Wikipedia |access-date=2024-10-27}}</ref>{{Circular reference|date=February 2025}} Those with inscriptions are especially helpful to historians as they provide more context about the event and martyr.

While the IISc veeragallu lacks an inscription, experts believe it dates to the 10th century when the Western Gangas ruled Bangalore. The sculpture is partially damaged, but you can still see the martyr's left hand gripping a bow and his right hand about to shoot an arrow at an attacking tiger.

This is one of only three known ''hulibete veeragallus'' in Bangalore. The others are located at Bangalore University (7th or 8th century) and in Madivala (14th century).

=== Challakere Campus ===
A second campus is in [[Challakere]], on a {{convert|1500|acre|km2}} lot of land. Research centres and labs here include the Talent Development Centre, Skill Development Centre funded by [[Hindustan Aeronautics Limited|HAL]] under CSR Act, Solar Power Research Center and a Climate Observatory. The Centre for Sustainable Technologies has commenced its activities here under the project "C-BELT" i.e., the Centre for Bio-energy and Low-Carbon Technologies.<ref>{{cite web|title=Indian Institute of Science|url=https://www.iisc.ac.in/challakere-campus-infrastructure-development/|access-date=1 May 2020}}</ref>

[[Janardhana Swamy]], then Member of Parliament from the Chitradurga Lok Sabha as well as a notable alumnus of IISc and Amalan Biswas, then DC of Chitradurga District played significant roles in setting up the IISc's new campus at Challakere.<ref>{{cite web|title=Indian Institute of Science – Challakere Campus|url=https://iisc.ac.in/challakere-campus/|access-date=4 Jul 2022}}</ref> They were instrumental in identifying all the required 1500 acres of land for the new campus, getting the existing building leased from the Sheep Farm, obtaining the various needed approvals from the government, and having the initial funds released from the State.

The Integrated PhD program is designed to offer opportunities to 3-year BSc graduates for pursuing advanced research in areas of biological, chemical, mathematical, and physical Sciences, leading to the PhD degree. In 2024, IISc launched new short courses on Computational Structural Reliability.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Bharat |first1=Monali |title=Gain Expertise in Computational Structural Reliability with IISc's Advanced Course |url=https://www.brutimes.com/news/education/gain-expertise-in-computational-structural-reliability-with-iiscs-advanced-course |website=Bru Times News}}</ref>

==== Post-graduate coursework programs ====

The two-year M.Tech. program is available in almost all engineering departments. Most MTech programs have a set of hard core courses specified as an essential requirement whereas students can take rest of the credits from many courses available in their parent or other departments and also do a dissertation work on the topic of their choice.

Master's degrees offered by the institute are classified into two categories: degrees by coursework (M.Tech., M.Mgt., and M.Des.) and degrees by research (M.Tech. research).

The Department of Management Studies offers a Master of Management program exclusively for engineering graduates. The Center for Product Design and Manufacturing<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.cpdm.iisc.ernet.in/ |title=CPDM, Indian Institute of Science |publisher=Cpdm.iisc.ernet.in |access-date=26 October 2012 |archive-date=28 October 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121028065328/http://www.cpdm.iisc.ernet.in/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> offers the Master of Design (M.Des.) course. Started in 1996, the M.Des. program is a two-year, full-time postgraduate program.

In keeping with India's recent National Education Policy (NEP 2020), IISc has launched the Master of Technology (Online) degree program, a fully online program, for practicing engineers and scientists from academic year 2022–2023. The degree program is for professionals who are sponsored by organisations, who already have a BE/BTech/Equivalent degree and wish to upskill or re-skill themselves in streams like Data Science and Business Analytics, Artificial Intelligence, Electronics and Communication Engineering.

The institute has recently announced MSc program in life sciences and chemical sciences starting from academic year of 2022–23. These 2 years master's degree programs consist of foundational and flexible coursework and hands-on laboratory training. The design is aimed to develop experimental skills in advanced techniques for research, leading to an independent thesis research project. Students enrolled in the M Sc programs can personalize their coursework and research projects.<ref>{{cite web |title=Indian Institute of Science Bangalore |url=https://iisc.ac.in/admissions/msc-programmes/ |access-date=2022-03-07}}</ref>

==== Undergraduate program ====

An undergraduate program in science for students after Class XII was conceived during the Centenary Celebrations in 2009. The first batch of students was admitted in 2011. The program offers a four-year Bachelor of Science (Research) and a five-year integrated Master of Science course in six disciplines: Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science, Material Science, Mathematics, and Physics. The course aims at exposing the students to the inter-disciplinary nature in which scientific research is done in many upcoming fields.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.iisc.ernet.in/ug/subjects.html |title=IISc UG Website |publisher=IISc |access-date=3 July 2013 |archive-date=16 July 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130716185032/http://www.iisc.ernet.in/ug/subjects.html |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/education/IISC-opens-doors-to-undergrads/articleshow/8834335.cms |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130525221859/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-06-13/education/29652343_1_iisc-programme-bsc |url-status=live |archive-date=25 May 2013 |title=IISC opens doors to undergrads|author=Sruthy Susan Ullas |work=[[The Times of India]] |date= 13 June 2011}}</ref>

Admission to the undergraduate programs is through one of two channels:The JEE Advanced and the IISER Aptitute Test.  (as of 2025)

===Central computing facility===
The Computer Centre, established in 1970 as a central computing facility, became Supercomputer Education and Research Centre (SERC) in 1990 to provide computing facility to the faculty and students of the institute. SERC was created and fully funded by the [[Ministry of Human Resource Development]] (MHRD), Government of India to commemorate the platinum jubilee of the institute. It houses India's first petascale supercomputer [[Cray XC40]], the erstwhile fastest [[supercomputer]] in India.<ref>{{cite web|title=SERC&nbsp;— India|url=http://www.serc.iisc.in/facilities/cray-xc40-named-as-sahasrat/|access-date=29 July 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181129113328/http://www.serc.iisc.in/facilities/cray-xc40-named-as-sahasrat/|archive-date=29 November 2018|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=ET&nbsp;— India|url=http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2015-05-22/news/62504128_1_tianhe-2-petaflop-most-powerful-supercomputer|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150526012025/http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2015-05-22/news/62504128_1_tianhe-2-petaflop-most-powerful-supercomputer|url-status=dead|archive-date=26 May 2015}}</ref>

Apart from functioning as a central computing facility of IISc, the SERC is engaged in education and research programs in areas relating to supercomputer development and application.  The centre is also involved in several sponsored research projects in collaboration with several high-profile government and private agencies.

===Academic and industrial collaborations===

The Indian Institute of Science collaborates with various government organisations like the [[Indian Ordnance Factories]], [[DRDO]], the [[ISRO]], [[Bharat Electronics Limited]], [[Aeronautical Development Agency]], [[National Aerospace Laboratories]], [[Council of Scientific and Industrial Research|CSIR]], Department of IT ([[Government of India]]), [[Centre for Development of Advanced Computing]], etc. IISc also works in collaboration with private industry and research labs. A few organisations have been incubated by the Society for Innovation and Development (SID) on campus, including Morphing Machines and SandI, while Gamma Porite is currently under incubation. IISc actively promotes and supports ventures by the faculty, the students and alumni. [[Strand Life Sciences]] and [[Ittiam]] are some success stories of this initiative. In March 2016, a science start-up, incubated at the IISc, built the world's first food-grade DNA/RNA stain. This might cut the time taken to diagnose conditions such as HIV to a day, from 45 days at present.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.business-standard.com/article/current-affairs/iisc-start-up-builds-world-s-first-food-grade-dna-rna-stain-116030200721_1.html|title=IISc start-up builds world's first food grade DNA/RNA stain|last=Reporter|first=B.

===Alumni associations===
IISc has a parent alumni association (AA) in Bangalore<ref>{{cite web |url=http://iiscalumni.com/ |title=IISc Alumni Association &#124; IISc alumni association website |publisher=Iiscalumni.com |access-date=27 August 2019 |archive-date=1 September 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190901193935/http://www.iiscalumni.com/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> and several branches elsewhere including USA (IISCAANA).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.iiscaana.org/front-page-features/about-us/ |title=About Us |publisher=Iiscaana.org |access-date=27 August 2019 |archive-date=30 August 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190830194519/http://www.iiscaana.org/front-page-features/about-us/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> Of recent parent association is involved in several disputes.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/education/news/iisc-alumni-association-makes-news-for-all-the-wrong-reasons/articleshow/66390582.cms |title=IISc Alumni Association makes news – for all the wrong reasons – Times of India |website=[[The Times of India]] |access-date=15 February 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190215160145/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/education/news/iisc-alumni-association-makes-news-for-all-the-wrong-reasons/articleshow/66390582.cms |archive-date=15 February 2019 |url-status=dead }}</ref> One of the reasons appears to be efforts by some to allow Non-IISc degree holders to become a part of the AA. Similar situation is created in IISCAANA
by allowing several non-IISc members to be active in the team. IIScAANA allows those who did not complete degree to become members by adding a clause
'completed at least one semester of course work in IISc'<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.iiscaana.org/membership-registration/membership/ |title=Membership Fee & How to become a Member ? |publisher=Iiscaana.org |access-date=27 August 2019 |archive-date=1 August 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190801113335/http://www.iiscaana.org/membership-registration/membership/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> for membership eligibility.
