Project work (twice a year)

This is the most interesting activity of DNA Club where the students were asked to perform a project on a particular topic provided by RRA. The projects were given to the students, which varied from a day to a week, a short individual project or in group depending upon the topic. During the project work, the students were taught the basic concept of scientific experiments on which they were going to perform. The students were asked to collect their own data and interpret the results of their work so as to make them devote to their work. This was done so as to stimulate them in the field of scientific research and development and create interest in pursuing it as a career.
