NUST (PI: Dr Wajahat, Co-PIs: Dr Latif and Dr Taha) has successfully landed a competitive grant of Rs 163M, to provide 75 STEM trainers to 150 Federal Government Schools in Islamabad. These trainers will coach primary grade students for two years.
We have recruited and deployed these coding fellows (mostly NUST pg students) to the majority of the schools during the last few weeks, Hopefully NUST will uplift the computation thinking across the entire next generation of students.
This success comes at the back of the efforts of the SEECS Murabbi team which ventured into STEM areas last summer.
