Speaker: Sreerup Raychoudhuri
In this (non-technical) session, the history and evolution of modern science in India
will be broadly surveyed. After a brief preamble, the introduction of scientific
processes by the British will be mentioned, and followed by a description of the
spread of western education. The contributions of several pioneering Indian
scientists in the colonial period will then be reviewed. Finally, the growth of major
scientific and technological institutions in post-independence India will be outlined.
