“Understanding SCIENCE” - Summer camp for High School students
Science –a magical genie of today has indeed helped us in myriad ways and changed our very lifestyle over the ages. IISER Bhopal a premier educational Institute in the country, actively engaged in quality research and teaching believes in creating awareness, developing more interest and sharing the joys of science with school children all over India. Aimed at students who have just cleared their class IX and XI examinations, IISER Bhopal invites applications from students interested in attending a short summer camp (17th – 22nd May, 2010) at its premises.
The summer camp will consist of interactive theory classes, along with an exposure to laboratory work guided by IISER faculty members. Our efforts are to make science as interesting and exciting as possible for the participants, so that they not only understand the basic principles of science, but also learn how to apply them in their daily lives. The objective of this program is to promote “conscience-based-learning” and inculcate in students an aptitude to appreciate the role and contribution of science in the betterment of mankind. The program has been designed to create harmony between learning and applying scientific knowledge towards the development of the society.
