The selection will be based on the academic performance and extracurricular activities.
Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has launched from this year a ‘Young Scientist Programme’.
Called ‘YUva VIgyani KAryakram’, the Programme aims to impart basic knowledge on space technology, space science and space applications to youngsters to arouse their interest in this emerging area.
ISRO has chalked out this programme to “Catch them young”. The residential training programme will run for two weeks during the summer holidays. Three students from each State/Union Territory will be selected to participate in this programme every year. Those who have finished VIII standard and are in IX standard will be eligible.
The selection will be based on the academic performance and extracurricular activities. Students belonging to the rural area will get a special weightage. ISRO is in touch with Chief Secretaries of States/UTs, and the list of selected candidates is expected by the March end.
