IISc

(Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore)


The Indian Institute of Science offers a unique 4-year Bachelor of Science
(Research) programme. The graduates of this programme will obtain a
Bachelor of Science (Research) degree in a specialization. This programme
is carefully designed to offer specialization in a science subject, but the
knowledge imparted carries a strong flavour of engineering and an
exposure to social science disciplines. Students specializing in a Major
subject are encouraged to take courses on other subjects, thus
maintaining the strong interdisciplinary flavour of this Bachelor of Science
(Research) programme. All students take core courses in Physics,
Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, Engineering and Humanities in the first
one and half years (I, II and III semesters). While 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 subjects 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.
One full year of participation in a research project identifies the Bachelor
of Science (Research) programme as a uniquely research based one. Such
research based interdisciplinary undergraduate programmes are well
suited to meet the present vocational and post-graduate requirements of
the modern world.
Students who complete all the requirements for the award of the Bachelor
of Science (Research) degree have the option of getting a Master of
Science degree by studying at IISc for a fifth year.
If you graduate from IISc and decide not to pursue Phd, then organizations
like ISRO, BARC, CSIR, DRDO, HAL, CEERI, TIFR and other R&D government
organizations picks you up. Apart from that there are many R&D private
companies like Hindustan Lever, IBM, Microsoft, Google, Biocon, etc.
