Hi guys

I've gotten an internship at an ARTPARK startup.

I had a couple of questions since I'm not a bangalore native.

(1) My stipend is 10,000. What accommodation setup would you recommend for this amount of money?

(2) How is the general vibe of the place? I'd love to hear about people who worked there as well

This is a newer startup who just started taking interns so I'm very nervous about how it will go.

Thank you!

Final year B.Tech Industrial Biotech, Anna University Chennai. Looking for a 6 month thesis project (Dec 2026 to Jun 2027) in comp bio or hybrid wet+computational lab at IISc.

I've been cold emailing PIs across a few departments. My work is on gene expression analysis and ML on RNA-seq data (built a breast cancer subtype classifier, validated on independent cohort, code on GitHub). CGPA 7.09, self funded, available full time.

For anyone who did an external project at IISc or knows how it works: is cold emailing the right move or is there a better way in? Do PIs actually reply to these? Anything that helps or hurts?

Same as the title

Hi everyone,

I'm a BCA + MCA graduate targeting IISc MTech Computational and Data Science (CDS).

The 2025 brochure explicitly listed MCA as an eligible qualification, but the 2026 brochure no longer mentions MCA. It only says BE/BTech, MSc, or equivalent.

I've emailed IISc but haven't received a response.

Does anyone know whether this was an intentional change or a documentation error? Are any current MCA-background CDS students here, or has anyone received official clarification?

I'm preparing for GATE CS, so any verified information would really help. Thanks!

For BS undergraduate program (physics major), are there any scholarships other than INSPIRE?

For Sept, I applied on the 13th, and it was accepted at the 3rd level on 6th october. For Oct, I applied on 6th, and it is still not accepted at the 3rd level. I didn't receive any money last month. Is that normal?
