NCSM says it administers 26 science centres and museums across India. The NCSM network page lists Regional Science Centre, Tirupati as one of the South Zone satellite units under Visvesvaraya Industrial and Technological Museum in Bengaluru.

(ncsm.gov.in) NCSM says its centres and innovation hubs are designed to engage young people in creative and practical science activities. The council’s description of Innovation Hubs says they support model making, basic experimentation, design work, fabrication and other hands-on learning formats. (ncsm.gov.in) The Tirupati centre has also hosted recent science programming tied to biology and nature. NCSM’s activities page says a “Biomimicry — the science inspired by nature” gallery was inaugurated at Regional Science Centre, Tirupati on January 26, 2026. ### What has the centre said about how the camps will run? The May 23 notice said the camps will cover hands-on labs and coding exercises, signaling that the Bioscience and Robotics tracks will be activity-based. (ncsm.gov.in) The post did not, in the material reviewed, spell out a daily timetable or participant cap. The registration information was posted through the centre’s social account rather than through a separate detailed release visible in the sources reviewed. (ncsm.gov.in) Based on that post, the immediate action for interested families is to use the registration details attached to the RSC Tirupati announcement before the May 25 opening day. ### What should interested participants watch next? (x.com) May 25 is the scheduled opening date for both camps, according to the centre’s May 23 announcement. The same RSC Tirupati account that published the notice is the place where registration details were posted and where any follow-up instructions or updates would most likely appear before the sessions begin on Monday.
