SCIENCE LABWe are living in a scientific era. Science has changed our life altogether. It has entered every sphere of our life. Students, researchers and scientists depend on science laboratories. A laboratory is a facility that provides conditions in which scientific or technological research, experiments and measurement may be performed.

Laboratory is a place which serves two fold purposes.
1 It provides a stage and appropriate place for placing all the necessary material and equipment related to the learning activities in a subject.

In this way laboratory aims at providing a good platform for the integration of theory with practice in a subject.

MATHEMATICS LAB
Mathematics is the king of all Sciences. Without Maths life cannot be imagined. We find Numbers, Shapes, Measurement, Time and Money to play a vital role in our day to day life.
