When considering the IISER Aptitude Test (IAT) and admissions to IISc Bangalore, it's important to understand the program structure. Here's a clarification:

• IISc Bangalore's Program:
  • IISc Bangalore, through the IAT, primarily offers a 4-year BS (Research) program. Therefore, the program you would be admitted to is a Bachelors of Science (Research) degree.
    
    
  • It is important to note that the IISER aptitude test is used for admissions into the 5 year BS-MS dual degree programs in the IISER's, and the 4 year BS programs in IISC and IIT Madras.
• BS-MS Dual Degree:
  • The 5-year BS-MS dual degree is a characteristic program of the IISERs (Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research). This program combines a Bachelor's and Master's degree.
    
    
• Key takeaway:
  • If you are accepted into IISc Bangalore through the IAT, you will be enrolled in a 4-year BS (Research) program, not a combined BS-MS program.

Therefore, you will be enrolled in the Bachelor of Science (Research) degree. To further your studies to a masters degree, you would need to apply to a masters program after the completion of your bachelors degree.

I hope this clarifies the program structure.
