Front-ranking scientists from all over the world visit the Institute frequently. Such visits typically center around a set of formal lectures. A public lecture targeted at a general audience is often a part of these visits.

The Institute is part of the Theoretical Physics Seminar Circuit (TPSC) programme.

Over the years, the Institute has hosted several Nobel Laureates, Fields Medalists and other scientists of eminence, often for extended periods of time.

Visiting scientists at IMSc may choose to stay either in the Guest-House or in self-contained flatlets equipped with kitchenettes.
