HAL partners with CeNS to promote science
In an attempt to popularise science and promote social outreach, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) on Friday signed a Memorandum of Agreement with the Centre for Nano and Soft Matter Sciences (CeNS) for the establishment of a HAL Advanced Academic Initiation Centre, under its CSR initiatives.
The HAL Advanced Academic Initiation Centre will be established at the CeNS' Arkavathi Campus in Karnataka. It will serve as a dedicated hub for science education under CeNS' flagship Vigyaani Vidyarthi Vichar Vinimay (V4) programme, which has already engaged over 20,000 students from 200 institutions and introduced them to the latest advancements in science and technology.
'The HAL Advanced Academic Initiation Centre will enable CeNS to reach out to a greater number of students and foster curiosity among young minds, especially those from rural areas who have limited exposure to advanced scientific concepts,' said D.K. Sunil, chairman and managing director, HAL.
