Popular Science Lecture Series on Innovations
The Centre celebrated Innovation's week programme for the benefit of students & teachers from 16th to 20th January 2010 during City & Northern India Science Fair. Research is the process by which people create new knowledge about themselves or the world around them in order to answer a question or solve a problem. Similarly engineering feats try to create things, which never existed before to help mankind based on knowledge acquired. Science Fair aims at bringing this aspect of thinking, problem solving and researching attitudes in young minds. The objective of organizing lecture series was to inculcate awareness about the role of creativity in innovation.
