Indian Institute of Science(IISc) was started in 1909 through the pioneering vision of J.N. Tata. Since then, it has grown into a premier institution of research and advanced instruction, with more than 2000 active researchers working in almost all frontier areas of science and technology. IISc is an institute of higher learning and is constantly in pursuit of excellence. It is one of the oldest and finest centres of its kind in India, and has a very high international standing in the academic world as well.
Unfortunately, due to the terrorist attack security is beefed up.
The kiosk at IISc is a haunt for students, profs and illegal entries from neighbouring colleges, who just cant seem to get enough of the superb fare available. A lovely place to relax, under the calm and hobnobbing with the most brilliant minds on the planet.
