The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) is a premier post-graduate institution of research and higher learning located in Bengaluru (formerly Bangalore), India. It offers postgraduate and doctoral research programmes to over 2,000 students working under the supervision of more than 400 faculty members in 48 departments ranging from aerospace engineering to molecular biophysics to management. According to journal Current Science IISc currently ranks first in India in terms of research output (citation and impact factor). It also ranks first among Indian universities (and South Asian universities) in the "Academic ranking of world universities" conducted by the SJTU, China.

The IISc campus is located in North Bengaluru in Karnataka state in India. Known popularly as Tata Institute in the city, IISc is located on the way to Yeshwantpur from Majestic. IISc is easily accessible from Kempegowda Bus Station (known as Majestic) by bus or by auto-rickshaws. IISc is about 7 kilometres from the Majestic area. Bus routes 252, 256, 258, 273 and 276 serve this Institute from Majestic.

Degrees offered by the institute may be broadly classified into two categories: Degrees by Research (Ph. D, integrated Ph. D and M.Sc. (Engg.)), and degrees by coursework (M. E. / M. Tech. / M. B. A. / M. Des.).

Research programmes leading to M. Sc.(Engg.) / Ph.D. degrees are the main thrust in many departments. The programme has a limited amount of course work, essentially to prepare the student to carry out the research, but the main emphasis is on the thesis work. Research students constitute the largest group on the campus and the Institute awards about 200 Ph. D and M. Sc.(Engg) degrees each year, which is probably the largest for any institution in India. The annual intake of research students is approximately 250 with several candidates sponsored from educational institutions and industries.

The Integrated Ph.D. programme is designed to offer exciting opportunities to motivated and talented B. Sc. graduates with a keen sense of scientific enquiry for pursuing advanced research in frontier areas of Biological, Chemical and Physical Sciences leading to the Ph. D degree of the Institute.

Two year programmes leading to M. E. or M. Tech. by course work are available in almost all engineering departments. A unique feature of the M. E. / M. Tech. programmes at the institute is the credit system which allows students to tailor the courses to suit their aptitude and interest. Most M. E. / M. Tech. programmes 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. These courses attract highly motivated accomplished students, in addition to several sponsored candidates from R & D labs/industries and also from educational institutions under the Quality Improvement Programme (QIP).

The Department of Management Studies, one of the oldest management schools in the country (established in 1948), offers an MBA programme exclusively for engineering graduates. The Center for Product Design and Manufacturing offers the Master of Design course. Started in 1996, the M. Des. programme is a two-year full-time graduate programme.

The International School Bangalore (TISB) is a private, unaided primary and secondary education institution located in the outskirts of Bangalore, India. It was established in 2000, founded by Dr. K. P. Gopalkrishna, and is a sister school of the National Public Schools, Bangalore. Students of TISB typically take the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) examinations at the end of the 10th grade, followed by a two-year International Baccalaureate diploma.

The International School Bangalore (TISB) is regarded as one of Bangalore's top schools. The students largely come from rich backgrounds, or Non Resident Indian families who wish to have their children schooled in India, owing to the fact that the fees range around US$12,000 a year and there are no scholarships or financial aid available. Most students who come to TISB are attracted by the plush lawns, impeccable facilities, and the prospect of going to a top university after completing the IB Diploma Program.
