This is what we intend to do in Experient Science Labs.
Our methodology is built on involving students in the experiments, reflecting on it using their analytical skills and critical reasoning to get a better understanding of the concepts resulting in long-term retention of knowledge and concepts.
To do this, we have set up a lab for students equipped with state-of-the-art infrastructure, selected mentors from the best universities in India, and designed an array of scientific and tinkering activities. Our state-of-the-art lab on Sarjapur Road, Bangalore offers an immersive experience to the students. Spread over 2700 sq.ft., the lab offers 300+ exploration and experimentation activities and limitless tinkering activities in the areas of Physical Sciences, Life and Environmental Sciences, Electronics, and Engineering.
