About VGST:
Vision Group on Science and Technology (VGST), Department Of Information Technology, Biotechnology and Science & Technology, Karnataka Government is constituted under the Chairmanship of distinguished scientist Bharat Ratna Prof. C. N. R. Rao. The objective of VGST is to encourage and promote Science and Technology education and research in the state. VGST plays a vital role in catalyzing, strengthening educational institutions to meet scientific and technological needs. To accomplish this, VGST is involved in developing, in stages, mechanisms to bring a paradigm shift in the Basic Science Education, research and taking science to the masses through a wide range of initiatives.
VGST emphasizes for a strong foundation in the pure sciences with prudent investment to reap rich dividends in the future. For the year 2017-18, the VGST has formulated a set of 7 programmes to promote science education and research in the state.
