IISc Bengaluru: the premier research institute of India

Dislikes

Construction: Since the undergraduate community is new, several of the builidings are still under construction like the new boys hostel and sports complex

Hostel Facilities:

The hostel facilities provided by the campus are top notch. The hostels have been divided into blocks, with UG students being assigned E block, U block and S block. The rooms are well equipped with beds, fans, cupboards, and lights. The rooms in E block are twin sharing, while single occupancy rooms are available in U & S block. Room allotment is random. The hostels are assigned on the first day of coming to campus and are very cheap at 5000 per month. The hostels are located at a central location of the campus so that classrooms are nearby. The food provided at the campus is of excellent quality. There are 5 messes A and B being North Indian veg and North Indian non veg, C and D being South Indian veg and South Indian nonveg, and E mess providing a composite diet. The menus are decided by a mess committee elected from the students by the students. 4 meals are provided everyday, breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner. Special items are made on festivals, dessert and beverages are there.

Anil Kumar J's Review On Indian Institute Of Science - [IISc], Bangalore

Hostel Facilities:

Hostels are some thing that disappoints any one here. About 90% of the strength would get single occupancy rooms. The institute charges us room rent, etc etc and also deducts our HRA. The worst part here is the complaints and maintenance cell which is good for nothing. They dont bother about their duty. One of the worst of its kind. Room rent is Rs.650, maintenance charges are another Rs.600, amenities charges are another Rs.600. Mess is one of its best kind here. We have 2 south Indian and 2 north Indian messes. One of each is a pure vegetarian mess.

IISc Bangalore: 2 Answered Questions

Is it necessary to stay in hostel if you study at IISC bangalore?

Saikat BanerjeeStudied at Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore (IISc)

No, it is not compulsory to stay in a hostel if you are a student at IISc Bangalore. You can become a day scholar too, but trust me if you do so you will be missing out on a huge part of your experience, hostel life. But there are several merits of staying in a hostel.

The lush green campus and the serene experience of cycling to and fro the hostel is a unique experience.
The night walk with your friends after a long tiring day will help you boost your stress.
Staying in the hostel is safer than staying outside as the hostel and campus are well-guarded and strict security measures are taken.
Attending seminars becomes easier as you can reach the venue within 5 minutes.
The most important part of staying in the hostel is group studying and group assignments.
The classes have no fixed timings so as a day scholar you might find it difficult to come back again.
The mess and hostel charges are very low and you get excellent facilities even at such a low price.
Students get to spend their leisure time doing their favorite activities including swimming pool, basketball court, badminton court, hockey ground, cricket ground, archery classes, aerobics classes, and many more.

So, it depends on you if you want to enjoy the comfort of your home and become a day scholar or enjoy your hostel life to the fullest.
