DST Inspire Internship Program Centre

About DST Inspire Internship Program Centre

The Department of Science and Technology (DST), Government of India has given us the opportunity to conduct DST INSPIRE Internship Program at Panjab University, Chandigarh. The INSPIRE Internship Programs are intended to expose students to the excitement and methods of science, research and innovation, just prior to the time when they make their career decisions (normally after 12th standard).

Nobel Laureates, Academy Fellows and Eminent Scientists from IISc, IITs, IISERs, NIPERs, CSIR, ICMR, DST, DBT, central/state universities, research centers, TIFR, BARC, NCL, JNCASR, NBRC, NCBS etc. in the science streams (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Life Sciences and Earth Sciences) will be invited to motivate young generation with their scientific experiences. The students will take part in thought provoking lectures, open discussions, laboratory demonstrations, hands-on innovative experiments, encourage group activities, facilitated self-learning, close interactions, and motivation towards independent thoughts and inquiry-based questions. All the participating students will be provided travel expenses, accommodation (outstation candidates), meals and study materials for all five days of the camp. There is no registration fee. Every year, Panjab University will organise 3-4 such DST Inspire Internship Program
