Activity-IV“Optics Outreach” programme

• A one day work shop on “Light Based Technologies”

under “Optics Outreach” programme was conducted on

28th January,2017,at Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya(JNV),

Mamunoor, Warangal, Telangana, which is located 50

km away from National Institute of Technology

Warangal. The aim of this activity is to give awareness

about the current application of light based technologies

in our daily day to day life and to motivate younger

student towards Optics and Photonics technologies.

SPIE Student members interacted with the students and

demonstrated the exhibits related to LASERS and basic Optics.

Various Demonstrations on basic Optics by SPIE member

(M.Sc(Tech)) students to 9th -12th standard students of

Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya, mamunoor.

Activity VI

SCIENCE EXPO-2017India is a fast developing country and it needs to be

strong both technically and economically to compete with

the developed countries and achieve self-sufficiency. Our

country has achieved many milestones in the field of

science and technology. ISRO is creating wonders and

attracting the whole world by periodic and successful

launching of bulk of satellites. But still there is a need for

indigenous products. The government is also supporting

startups through schemes such as make in India and

encouraging young people to choose scientific research as

a career.

In this context the OSA student chapter, & SPIE

student chapter NIT Warangal felt the need of encouraging

student community towards science and technology by

involving them in making innovative science projects.

This event is aimed at the students of 8th to 10th standard.

Students can make their own science projects with the

help of faculty and exhibit in the Science-Expo. This

event also helps students to interact with professors and

get to know about the current and future trends in the field

of science and technology.

SPIE Discussion forum-Monthly informal discussion on various

current research topics by the students

Optics Outreach: To disseminate the fundamental knowledge

of various optical phenomena of day to day life, we are

planning to organize a Youth outreach program in the month

of August 2017.The main focus of the program is to promote

the optical knowledge to secondary school children. X

standard students from various schools will be gathered to a

convenient place and concepts of light will be explained with

help of demonstrations, exhibits and lectures.

Industrial Tour: For the assimilation of the optical knowledge,

to acclimatize the industrial work culture, and to further the

professional development of the students, an industrial tour to

a well reputed photonic industry is planned. SPIE chapter

members can get an in depth awareness of the industrial

production of photonic instruments by this event.

Industrial awareness program: We want to arrange an

interaction program between photonic industry people and

science and technological students by this event. Industrialists

will give an awareness of the present industrial technical needs,

and skills to be adopted by the students. We are planning

to gather technical students of all disciplines from various

academic Institutions and Industrial people to a common platform

to discuss and exchange their ideas and views.
