The Crucible Of Indian Science

THE CRUCIBLE OF INDIAN SCIENCE _{THE STORY OF IISC}

In the late 1800s, industrialist Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata dreamt of an institute where science could shape India's future. Through collaborations with the royal family in Mysore (now Mysuru) and the British Government of India, his vision came to life in 1909 with the establishment of the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) in Bangalore (now Bengaluru). Over the last century, IISc has not only become a beacon of scientific and engineering research, discoveries and innovations, but has also been the spark that lit the way for many other institutes. This comic book takes you through these streams of history as visitors to the campus explore how a vision bloomed into an extraordinary reality of advancing science and nation-building.

The book celebrates not just the milestones of IISc but also the spirit of curiosity and creativity it nurtures in all its students. It is the story of how a century-old institute continues to shape the future and why its legacy matters to every one of us.
