What is the daily schedule of IISC Bangalore MS students?
The schedule is more or less the same for all postgraduate students at IISc.
Some are night owls, while others wake up early each morning. The mess opens between 7:30-9:30 am for breakfast. The classes commence at 8, and run till late the afternoon. So the early risers are the ones who eat their breakfast in the mess.
The schedule of postgraduates is quite hectic over here. Most of them work in the labs till night, after their classes. The canteen of IISc Bangalore is called Prakruti. It is where you’ll find students and professors enjoying their evening tea. It is also the place where geniuses sit and think upon mathematical problems.
Those who finish their work early opt for some outdoor activities in the evening. They play Hockey, TT, Lawn Tennis and Basketball in the Gymkhana. You can even find some professors over there. At night, some postgraduates go for night strolls post dinner, while others are busy working in the labs. Unlike the rest of the city that sleeps after 11pm, the IISc campus is awake at all hours.
This question does not have a single answer, so I tried answering for every kind of postgraduate student on this campus.

Every student has their own different schedule. However, a general day for an MS student at IISc Bangalore can be summed up in the following points given below.
-
Breakfast is provided every morning from 7.30 AM to 9.30 A.M. Some of the students have classes from 8 A.M., so they have to get up before that, have breakfast, and go to class. For those who don’t have classes, they have to attend labs for their research work.
-
Lunchtime is from around 1 P.M. to 2 P.M. After having lunch the students again have to go to their labs to continue the work.
-
Students generally take evening breaks for snacks and tea in IISC canteen- Prakruti. Sometimes you will find professors accompanying the students for tea. Many students play some outdoor games during this time.
-
Then again students go to their labs and work until dinner time. After dinner, many students hang out with their friends or watch movies or go for a walk. Sometimes if the workload is high, they have to work even after dinner.
MS students spend most of the time in their labs. They also have to adjust their T.A. work in this hectic schedule whenever required. This is how the day of an MS student looks like from Monday to Saturday. On Sundays, they relax in their rooms or go to movies, spend their day with their friends.
