After the pandemic, we have resumed the conduction of Bangalore Science Forum Summer school from 2023. It began with admission of a whopping number of 40 students. 5 students joined in the subsequent days.

The 52nd Summer School in Science was inaugurated by Y.K.Jayaramappa, Director BASE and presided by Dr. H.N.Subrahmanya President, NES of Karnataka in the presence of  Shri.Y.G.Madhusudan, Vice President, NES of Karnataka, Shri.V.Venkatashiva Reddy, Hon.Secretary, NES of Karnataka, Shri.B.S.

REPORT   

We were privileged to attend the inauguration of the 52nd Bangalore Science forum. The inauguration was facilitated by four honourable guests. The guests came up and encouraged us and shared a lot of knowledge in the field of science. Their thoughts were very inspiring, and gave us a boost to look forward to this great initiative. They also interacted with us and gave us a lot of positivity and motivated us to actively be part and make the program successful.

After this event there was a interesting session by prabhavathi ma’am about VLSI technology, we heard Kamala ma’am saying that prabhavathi ma’am is a wonderful, courageous, hard working woman . She gave an idea about An integrated circuit or monolithic integrated circuit,which  is a set of electronic circuits on one small flat piece of semiconductor material, usually silicon.Large numbers of miniaturised transistors and other electronic components are integrated together on the chip. This results in circuits that are orders of magnitude smaller, faster, and less expensive than those constructed of discrete components, allowing a large transistor count.

At the end, we were given instructions for the camp. First we were told of the timings and all the things that will be done in the camp. Then we were told of all upcoming guests and a few institutions we were visiting in the later days. Then we were told that we should not inform any one of the co-ordinators whenever we take a leave or go in the middle of the camp. It was also said that we should ask more questions to the teachers and write down everything they would say.

Thank you
