The Indian
Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has launched a special programme for School
Children called “Young Scientist Programme” “YUva VIgyani KAryakram” (युिवका) from this
year. The Program is primarily aimed at imparting basic knowledge on Space
Technology, Space Science and Space Applications to the younger ones with the
intent of arousing their interest in the emerging areas of Space activities.
ISRO has chalked out this programme to “Catch them young”.
The
residential training programme will be of around two weeks duration during
summer holidays and it is proposed to select 3 students each from each State/
Union Territory to participate in this programme covering state, CBSE, and ICSE
syllabus. Those who have just finished 9th standard (in the academic year
2018-19) and waiting to join 10th standard (or those who have started 10th Std
just now) will be eligible for the programme. The selection will be based on
the 8th Std marks. A few seats are left for the programme from various states.
The interested students can register online from 25th March 2019 (1800 hrs) to
03rd April 2019 (1800 hrs).
The
selection is based on the academic performance and extracurricular activities.
Students belonging to the rural area have been given special weightage in the
selection criteria. The list of the provisionally selected candidates from each
state will be announced on 06th April 2019. The provisionally selected
candidates will be requested to send the supporting documents through E-mail to
ISRO. This Email ID will be intimated to selected candidates. After verifying
the relevant certificates, the final list will be published on 13th April 2019.
The progamme is planned at 4 centres of ISRO during the second half of May 2019.
