Indian Institute of Science, one of the premier research institutes of India, is a fully residential institute. There are many independent hostel blocks, some of which are for ladies and some for gents.

These hostel blocks together can house about 3000 plus students who stay on campus.

Limited accommodation for married students is also available on campus. There are single and double room apartments for married students to stay with their families.

There are four different Mess facilities for students to choose from, depending on their tastes.

Two of the messes serve only vegetarian dishes and two other messes are combo-messes that serve both veg and non-veg.

All in all, the hostel life in IISc is one of the most enviable among the student community, providing the students with a conducive atmosphere for research and learning.
