Science Quest 2025

The Science Quest Residential Programme is the flagship IIT Palakkad outreach initiative established in 2019. This is a residential science camp in memory of the Late Prof. M. C. Valsakumar, former Professor of Physics and Dean (Student Affairs) at IIT Palakkad. The camp aims to instill a spirit of inquiry, critical thinking, and love for science and mathematics in students. This camp also provides a platform for interactions between students from various parts of the state and researchers at IIT Palakkad. We hold interactive sessions on various topics in science, engineering, and mathematics, and several hands-on sessions are conducted, where scientific concepts are introduced through experiments. The camp runs uninterrupted for 10 days during the summer holidays.
