(Notification) CBSE Science Exhibition : 2017-18

Introduction

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has been taking many initiatives to provide interactive, participatory, hands-on, innovative and  creative learning experiences to students studying in its affiliated schools. One such initiative  is the organization of  Science Exhibition at Regional and National levels every year. The activity aims at providing a common platform to schools, teachers and students to give shape to their innovative ideas and learn from each other’s experiences. The exhibitions also  provide a medium for popularizing Science and  increasing awareness  among stakeholders about the close relationship between Science, Technology and Society.

The Science exhibition for the academic 2017-18 is likely to be organized in different parts of the country at REGIONAL LEVEL in the month of November/ December in 2017. The NATIONAL LEVEL will be conducted after the completion of the Regional Level and dates for the same will be notified later.
