The Institute of Mathematical Sciences (IMSc) is a research centre located at Chennai, India. The institute is also known as Matscience. [1]
The Institute of Mathematical Sciences (IMSc), founded by Sampath Kumar in 1962, is a national institution for fundamental research in the mathematical and physical sciences. It went through a phase of expansion in the 1980s when E. C. G. Sudarshan worked as the Director. The present Director of the institute is R. Balasubramanian. [1]
The Institute has an active graduate research program to which a select group of students are admitted each year to work towards a Ph.D. degree. IMSc hosts a large number of scientists at the post-doctoral level and supports a visiting scientist program. [1]
IMSc has an outstanding scientific library, a computing facility which contains the fastest academic computer in India (as of mid 2004) and a dedicated high-speed network. The Institute hosts several national and international scientific meetings every year. [1]
Located in South Chennai, in the Adyar-Taramani area, the Institute is on the verdant Central Institutes of Technology (CIT) campus. The Institute also maintains a student hostel, flatlets for long-term visitors, married students and post-doctoral fellows, and the Institute guest house. IMSc has its own faculty housing in Tiruvanmiyur near the seashore. [1]
IMSc is a national institute for fundamental research in frontier disciplines of the mathematical and physical sciences: theoretical computer science, mathematics, and theoretical physics. In these areas it is among the best institutions in India. It is funded mainly by the Department of Atomic Energy. [1]
