For many students, these small questions can develop into a genuine interest in science, technology and innovation. But learning science becomes more interesting when students can experiment, build things and see how scientific concepts work in real life.
At Kalinga University, we believe students learn better when they put their knowledge into practice. Through the Science Working Model Competition 5.0, we want to encourage young minds to explore their ideas, develop an interest in science and create models that can help solve real-world problems.
Kalinga University invites students of Classes 9 to 12 across India to participate in the competition on 21st November 2026. It is an opportunity to move beyond textbooks, build working models and present their ideas.
A Little Encouragement Can Make a Difference
Parents and teachers can encourage students to try hands-on science activities, ask questions, and build things themselves. Starting early can help children develop an interest in science and learn to find solutions to everyday problems.
Ideas That Can Shape Tomorrow
Students can explore scientific concepts through working models based on themes such as:
- Science for Sustainable Living
- Technology for Everyday Life
- Health, Wellness & Human Life
- Agriculture & Food Technology
- Artificial Intelligence, Robotics & Automation
- Future of Smart Cities
- Clean Energy & Green Future
- Water Conservation & Management
- Environment, Climate & Biodiversity
- Innovations for a Better Tomorrow
An Opportunity to Take Your Ideas Further
The competition offers a total prize pool of INR 62,000/-. The best model will also receive incubation support from the Kalinga Incubation Foundation (KIF), giving students an opportunity to take their ideas further.
