“INSPIRE”, science internship camp begins at SMVDU | | | Early Times Report JAMMU, May 28: The third five-day, Department of Science and Technology (DST), sponsored "Innovation in Science Pursuit for Inspired Research (INSPIRE)", Science Internship Camp was inaugurated in the university campus. In his inaugural address, Prof. R.N.K.Bamezai, Vice Chancellor, Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University said that INSPIRE is a small step and if taken seriously it can transform our country in foreseeable future. He said that it is not constant exposure that matters, sometimes, it is just one initiative or a drop here and there that can make a whole lot of difference. He said that INSPIRE has all the elements to help motivate the younger generation, and to transform them into capable human resource in S&T. Inventions often happen by chance, however that does not mean that students should not organize themselves. Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University has become the first University in Jammu & Kashmir to host over 800 students from all over the state in two INSPIRE Camps held last year in April and June, 2010 respectively. These students were mentored by over 40 eminent scientists from all over the country. 26 mentors were fellows of multiple science academies. With these camps we have set yet another quality benchmark. The basic objective of the INSPIRE camp is to communicate to the young attendees the excitement of creative pursuits of science and attract talent to the study of science at an early stage and build the required critical human resource pool for strengthening and expanding science and technology system in R&D base. Under the above scheme SMVDU is organizing its Third INSPIRE science internship summer camp. This camp is meant for the top 1% performers in class 10th board examination, and who, are presently pursuing science in XI and XII standard. All the students are to be hosted on our campus. They are to be given exposure with invited fellows of various science academies, awardees and scientists of national and international repute who will interact with the students through lectures and interactive sessions.
