ISRO is starting a program for students in class 11 called “Young Scientists.” The program’s goal is to pick 150 students from across the country who are in Class IX as of March 1, 2022, in a school in India.
Key Highlight:
- To teach young pupils, especially those from rural areas, about space technology, science, and applications, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is organizing a special program named “YUVIKA” (Young Scientist Program).
- A total of 150 students from across the country will be selected for the program, which will begin on March 10, 2022, and end on April 10, 2022, at 4 p.m.
- The provisional YUVIKA – 2022 selection list will be announced on April 20th.
- That’s because they’re the “future building blocks of our nation,” according to India’s space agency, based in Bengaluru.
- The YUVIKA-2022 residential program runs from May 16 to 28.
The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) is running a special program for school kids called “Yuva Vigyani Karyakram” (YUVIKA) or “Young Scientist Program.” The goal is to teach young people about space technology, space science, and space applications, especially those in rural areas.
The space agency is called “YUVIKA” or “Young Scientist Program,” and it’s for kids who go to school. It started to register for the program on March 10, and the last day to apply is April 10.
The program’s goal is to pick 150 students from across the country who are in class 11 on March 1, 2022, and who live in a school in India.
Application began on March 10 and ended at 4 pm on April 10. The preliminary selection list for YUVIKA – 2022 will be made public on April 20. Isro.gov.in is the place to go if you want to apply.
If you get good grades in class 8 and participate in science fairs at the school, district, and state level in the last three years, you’ll be in.
The program’s goal is to make young people aware of how science and technology are changing. They are the “future building blocks of our country,” says the space agency based in Bangalore.
The program also aims to get more students interested in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) careers and research.
This year’s homestay program will last two weeks, from May 16 to May 28, and it will be for two weeks at a time. The schedule will include talks by well-known scientists, demonstrations of experiments, visits to facilities and labs, one-on-one meetings with experts, and practical and feedback sessions.
Five ISRO centers will host the event: Vikram Sarabhai Space Center (VSSC), Thiruvananthapuram; U R Rao Satellite Center (URSC), Bengaluru; Space Application Centre, Ahmedabad, and the National Remote Sensing Center (NRSC), Hyderabad; and North-East Space Application Center (NE-SAC), Shillong. The event will also be streamed live on the Internet.
