About Industrial Visit:
On 27th January 2023, An Industrial Visit to ISRO was organized by the department of MCA to enhance student’s knowledge on advance technology. It was a half day visit by around 100 students along with 4 faculty members.
ISRO U R Rao Satellite Centre (URSC) is the center of ISRO responsible for design, development, assembly and integration of communication, navigation, remote sensing and satellite missions.
For the benefits of students there is a space exhibition center at URSC. Students were able to see the exhibition. It includes the models of ARYABHATT, APPLE and INSAT series etc. In the two types of satellites- Remote Sensing and communication satellite, IRS-1A was the first remote sensing mission undertaken by ISRO.
The concept for assembling of satellites was shown to us. Currently scientists were working on two communication satellite. A video depicting the moon mission of CHANDRAYAAN was also displayed. A working model was demonstrated on the video. Various images of several countries (including India) taken at different angles from the satellites were seen. Different electronic devices used in satellites were explained. And students got to know their own weight on different planets (Mars, Moon, Earth etc.).
At last, Mentor answered many of the doubts which students had about satellite launching. Students also gained knowledge about how television signals are broadcast with the help of satellites. Also the mentor explained the procedure to get job in ISRO.
Outcome:
- They understood about various job opportunities at ISRO
- They understood about research opportunities at ISRO
- The students were able to understand the importance being updated with the latest
- They understood advancements on technology
