Executive Summary :

The project aims to provide Andhra Pradesh students with the opportunity to learn about the latest technologies and showcase their talents in science and technology. Pragati Engineering College, one of the state's top engineering colleges, is organizing awareness camps in rural areas to promote science and technology. The main objectives include fostering curiosity, creating awareness about the usage of technology, stimulating scientific thinking, changing students' mindsets, exposing them to the outside world, and organizing student-based activities. The project will include seminars, guest lectures, awareness camps, poster expos, awareness campaigns, health camps, and competitions. The project will address issues such as lack of science and technology learning activities, basic understanding of scientific facts, teaching methodology, lack of idea on latest trends, and lack of understanding of the pros and cons of the current scientific system. It will also help bridge the gap between corporate and rural students, encourage students to choose successful careers, and help them understand risks in free apps and cyber security.
