The Institute of Mathematical Sciences (IMSc) (sometimes also referred to as Matscience) is a reputed research centre located in Chennai, India.^[1]^[2] It is a constituent institute of the Homi Bhabha National Institute.^[3]

IMSc is a national institute for fundamental research in frontier disciplines of the mathematical and physical sciences: theoretical computer science, mathematics, theoretical physics, and computational biology. It is funded mainly by the Department of Atomic Energy.^[4] The institute operates the Kabru supercomputer.^[5]

History

The institute was founded by Alladi Ramakrishnan in 1962 in Chennai.^[6] It is modelled after the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, New Jersey, United States. It went through a phase of expansion when E. C. G. Sudarshan in the 1980s and R. Ramachandran in 1990s were the directors. Amritanshu Prasad is currently the director of the institute^[7].

Academics

The institute has a graduate research program to which a group of students are admitted each year to work towards a Ph.D. degree. IMSc hosts scientists at the post-doctoral level and supports a visiting scientist program in areas of research in the institute.^[1]

Campus

Located in South Chennai, in the Adyar-Tharamani area, the institute is on the Central Institutes of Technology (CIT) campus.^[8] The institute maintains a student hostel, flatlets for long-term visitors, married students and post-doctoral fellows, and the institute guest house.^[8] IMSc has its own faculty housing in Thiruvanmiyur near the seashore.^[8]
