Impact of KVRSS
Starting with three students participating for Research Awards in 2001 to more than 10,000 students participating annually, KVRSS has steadily increased the number of events and extended the coverage, both at school and research level over the years. Starting with Andhra Pradesh and moving to cover the southern states and then encompassing pan India, KVRSS is now an established Society working towards science popularisation and promotion.
Two major projects of KVRSS fructified in 2021-22. The Science Innovation Centre (KVRSS-SIC) and Mobile Science Lab (KVRSS-MSL). The two projects have been envisaged to give school students a fun - filled and hands-on experience in learning the concepts of Science and are aimed at particularly those schools which lack adequate lab facilities, both government and private. The innovation Centre is located in KVRSS office and caters to school students in the nearby areas whereas, Mobile Science Lab is designed to cater to schools in and around Hyderabad. These two facilities support about 7000 students annually in the learning of concepts in Science.
