The IISc Alumni Cell

The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) can be described as India's intellectual powerhouse in science and technology. As a premier research institution of India since 1909, IISc has contributed in a significant way towards the scientific and technological growth of India and has produced outstanding leaders and creative visionaries to inspire institutions, industries, and business houses. IISc has assiduously built up and maintained very high standards in research and teaching and has excelled in accepting scientific and technological challenges to find economically viable solutions. In its long history of almost 100 years, IISc has time and again proved that scientific and technological innovations are the basic needs for the economic prosperity of the country. The Institute will be celebrating its centenary during May 27, 2008 - May 26, 2009.

The Indian Institute of Science is truly proud of its brilliant alumni who are currently positioned all over the globe and have distinguished themselves in all spheres of high-end science and technology.

The IISc Alumni Cell was formed in February 2007 to coordinate the networking of all the IISc alumni and create a single global IISc community. The vision of this website is to provide to all the IISc alumni a pleasant and friendly interface to their alma mater.
