To popularise science, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) signed a Memorandum of Agreement with the Centre for Nano and Soft Matter Sciences (CeNS) for the establishment of a HAL Advanced Academic Initiation Centre, under its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives. Pradeep Kumar, General Manager (HR), HAL signed the agreement with Prof B L V Prasad, Director of CeNS. D K Sunil, CMD, HAL, who was also present, said, “The HAL Advanced Academic Initiation Centre will enable CeNS to reach out to a greater number of students and foster curiosity among young minds, especially those from rural areas who have limited exposure to advanced scientific concepts.” Prof Prasad appreciated HAL’s initiative and said it will go a long way in demonstrating various scientific facts to large groups of students with relative ease.
