A yearly seminar of the National Council of Science Museums for students of Classes VIII to X: state and UT winners selected with the State Education Departments present a six-minute talk on the year's theme at the national round and compete for a one-year scholarship.
The National Science Seminar has run since 1982. Participants make a presentation of up to 6 minutes on the theme, followed by a 2-minute question-answer session; marks are given for science content, novelty in use of visuals, fluency in speech, ability to answer questions and a written aptitude test. The 2025 brochure lists a one-year scholarship (₹4,000 per month for the winner and ₹2,000 per month for nine special prizes, as read from a scanned brochure) and books or science kits for all participants.
