===Alumni associations===
IISc has a parent alumni association (AA) in Bangalore<ref>{{cite web |url=http://iiscalumni.com/ |title=IISc Alumni Association &#124; IISc alumni association website |publisher=Iiscalumni.com |access-date=27 August 2019 |archive-date=1 September 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190901193935/http://www.iiscalumni.com/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> and several branches elsewhere including USA (IISCAANA).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.iiscaana.org/front-page-features/about-us/ |title=About Us |publisher=Iiscaana.org |access-date=27 August 2019 |archive-date=30 August 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190830194519/http://www.iiscaana.org/front-page-features/about-us/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> Of recent parent association is involved in several disputes.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/education/news/iisc-alumni-association-makes-news-for-all-the-wrong-reasons/articleshow/66390582.cms |title=IISc Alumni Association makes news – for all the wrong reasons – Times of India |website=[[The Times of India]] |access-date=15 February 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190215160145/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/education/news/iisc-alumni-association-makes-news-for-all-the-wrong-reasons/articleshow/66390582.cms |archive-date=15 February 2019 |url-status=dead }}</ref> One of the reasons appears to be efforts by some to allow Non-IISc degree holders to become a part of the AA. Similar situation is created in IISCAANA
by allowing several non-IISc members to be active in the team. IIScAANA allows those who did not complete degree to become members by adding a clause
'completed at least one semester of course work in IISc'<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.iiscaana.org/membership-registration/membership/ |title=Membership Fee & How to become a Member ? |publisher=Iiscaana.org |access-date=27 August 2019 |archive-date=1 August 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190801113335/http://www.iiscaana.org/membership-registration/membership/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> for membership eligibility.
