Brochure for the Don Bosco Egmore Science CentreTRANSCRIPT
The next Einstein or Newton might probably discover his calling here - Don Bosco Birth Bicentenary Science Centre
is the engine of progress. It is the escalator on which humanity ascended
to a higher plane of existence. Underscoring the importance of science, R&D
has become the new buzzword and academic-industry collaboration has
entered an exciting phase. Nations are clued in to the fact that innovation
is key to leadership. Today, it is vital for educational institutions to leverage
this fact and do all it takes to inculcate the scientific spirit in young minds
and create an environment conducive for scientific enquiry within the
school. Don Bosco, Egmore, known for its holistic approach to education, is
therefore proud to announce the commissioning of its new, state-of-the-
art science centre, christened the Don Bosco Bicentenary Science Centre,
within its campus.
Science
To excel, to lead, to make a
difference-this is the credo that
students of Don Bosco follow.
Celebrating a legacy As the bicentenary of our inspirational founder
approaches, Don Bosco, Egmore, has unveiled
an ambitious programme of transformation and
renewal under the banner of ‘Vision 2017’. As part
of this exercise that we are building a new science
centre within our campus where young minds
can indulge their passion for science supported by
modern technology and state-of-the-art facilities
in a comfortable and air-conditioned ambience. The
centre will have a basement and three floors. The
ground floor will house the chemistry lab, the first
floor the biology lab, the second floor the physics
lab while the basement will be used for music
lessons and robotics.
Don Bosco, founded by St. John Bosco, an Italian
educator saint, has always followed a unique
pedagogy which stressed the all-round development
of its students. Today, Don Bosco has become
synonymous with education that foregrounds
values along with academics. With a curriculum
that stimulates creativity and individuality and
innovative educational tools adapted to changing
needs in education and industry, we have managed
to carve out a unique position in the educational
sector. By providing our students a learning
environment that fosters their natural curiosity
and allows them freedom of self-expression, we
empower them to face the world with confidence
and self-assurance.

A team effort - An invitation to generously contribute For the Salesians of Don Bosco, education has
always been a way of engaging with the community
and supporting its most vulnerable members-the
youth-by weaning them away from vices and
helping them become productive members of
society. Now it is we who need your support to
honour St. John Bosco’s glorious legacy and take it
forward to the future. We invite all members of the
large Don Bosco family, comprising past and present
students, their parents, staff benefactors and
well-wishers to contribute towards this effort and
partner us in our endeavour to commemorate our
great founder by making the Don Bosco Bicentenary
Science Centre a reality. Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Robotic Laboratories
