              Having started in 1914, publishing the Journal of the Indian Institute of Science is among the earliest activities of the Institute. This demonstrates the significance the founding members of the Institute attached to publication of the research output of the Institute faculty members and students. Over the years, the Journal has undergone several changes. With the centenary celebration of the Institute fast approaching, the Editorial Committee of the Journal decided to have a refreshing departure from its present scope of publishing contributed articles. Keeping in mind the changing technical advancement in the publication of scientific Journal, and with the objective of making the scope and content of our Journal different from those of other Journals, it was felt that the Journal of the Indian Institute of Science should publish only Review Articles which will be of interest to a wide cross section of researchers. Through such a change in focus, it is hoped that the Journal will have a character altogether different from those of other Journals and will serve the interest of both young and experienced researchers. We are certain that the Journal issues will be of great archival value.

Starting from 2007, our Journal has changed its format to invited reviews on special themes Guest Edited by IISc Faculty Members. In view of this we have stopped accepting unsolicited manuscripts or original papers from various sources.

Thank you for your interest in our Journal.
