For Curious Students

Your Research Journey
Starts Here

You don't need a perfect score or a famous school. You need a question and the will to pursue it.

Who Can Apply

Bodhaayan is for you if…

You are a student from a rural, semi-urban, or marginalised urban community in India.

You have genuine curiosity about how things work — in nature, technology, health, energy, or any domain.

You have a question, problem, or idea you want to explore scientifically — even if you don't know where to start.

You are between 14 and 22 years old and currently enrolled in school or college.

No prior research experience required. Bodhaayan is designed for beginners.
