Organised in collaboration with Pakistan Science Foundation (PSF) and Embassy of France, the expo was inaugurated by French Consul General Christian Ramage and Chairman PSF Dr. Manzoor Soomro.
Speaking on the occasion, the Consul General appreciated the University and highlighted how education in the different subjects of science is being imparted in the schools in France.
Chairman PSF Dr. Manzoor Soomro briefed about the activities undertaken by PSF for the promotion and popularisation of science in the educational institutions of Pakistan.
"Education in an "inquiry based science" at the grass root level is what we need," he underscored.
He added that the teachers as well as students both need to keep abreast of the new developments and breakthroughs in science and that they should also adopt the modern methods of learning science.
Dr. Soomro said that a majority of students and teachers were not attracted to the subject of chemistry which they find 'monotonous' and 'complex'.
"It is with this understanding that the PSF in collaboration with the partners is making efforts to win due recognition and importance which the subject deserves," he said.
Pro Vice Chancellor of Sindh Agriculture University Dr. K.B. Mirbahar also addressed on the occasion. (APP)
