Virtual labs to allow students to conduct experiments without physical setup

Today, HRD Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal 'Nishank tweeted about MHRD’s 'Virtual Lab' initiative. The initiative has been launched under the National Mission on Education through ICT. Virtual labs will allow students to conduct experiment and improve their experiment skills virtually, without the need of physical lab. “Experiment with experiments from the comfort of your home with 'Virtual Labs'. As the name suggests, it offers you scientific tools to enhance your experimental skills even without a physical laboratory setup. Interesting?” tweeted Dr. Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank (@DrRPNishank). This platform will allow students to access the labs remotely from the comfort of their homes. Labs are available from various disciplines of Science and Engineering. These labs will cater to the needs of the students of all levels whether they be higher education - undergraduate, postgraduate, or research. The project is a collaborative effort of 12 participating institutes including 7 IITs (IIT Kharagpur, IIT Roorkee, IIT Guwahati, IIT Delhi, IIT Bombay, IIT Kanpur, and IIT Madras).
