  3. Indian Association forthe Cultivation of Science Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science ( IACS) is proudly the oldest institute in India to have pursued the field of Basic Sciences. The institute has over the period own numerous accolades and awards. Some of the Notable award holders are CV Raman ( Nobel), Four TWAS Prize holders. IACS to its has awards SS Bhatnagar Prize like furthermore, institutes members, students have also won numerous prizes and awards. Moreover, the institute from its formative days has kept on changing and evolving. Presently it sits on a nice green property atKolkata. The institute is near Jadavpur University, moreover, the Central Glass and Ceramic Research Institute and Indian Institute of Chemical Biology are near it. Established 144 years ago the institute lately received the status of Deemed University in2018. Furthermore, the institute is a premier school for fundamental basic sciences and researches. Primarily, however, the most focused fields are Physics chemistry and chemical biology. The houses the brightest of minds on its campus thus it also successfully publishes around 500 articles, journals, and research papers everyyear.

  4. IMPORTANT FACTS ANDFIGURE

  5. HISTORY Dr. Mahendra Lal Sarcar the second MD Graduate from Calcutta Medical College. In July 1876 founded the Indian Association Of Cultivation Science (IACS). In its initial days, IACS operated at Bowbazar a locality in Kolkata. IACS during its formative period saw the likes of Father Lafont, Jagadish Chandra Bose, Asutosh Mukherjee, Chunilal Bose, and Pramathanath Bose. Pandit Iswar Chandra Vidyasagar and Kesab Chandra Sen as its member. Moreover, the institute is where C.V Raman made his prized discovery in Physics which led him to win the Nobel in1930. Furthermore, the institute’s rich history received a boost when CV Raman started his school of research which witnessed talents from all parts of India joining the institute. Furthermore, the institute was in its prime the only place of such Research- based study thus it saw overpour of talents as well. Therefore, many notablescientists like S Bhagavantam, L Srivastava, N K Sethi, C Prosad, also received the opportunity to workhere.

The major ranking educational college mechanism in the world is QS and in India it is NIRF both these rankers evaluate the colleges and institute rigorously. Therefore various ranking factors and parameters are at play while ranking a college some of the most important parameters are. The infrastructure o the college,student to faculty ratio, faculty knowledge base, and foreign and national students ratio. The institute according to CWUR is at 1071st place internationally and is 19thnationally.
