YSP Sciences, is a 5-day certified programme, offering high school students an early exposure to the different Science disciplines (Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Computer Science and Maths) at the college- level through engaging discussions on cutting edge topics in these fields. YSP Sciences is an ideal programme for high school students looking to pursue their higher studies in the Science streams. Students get access to advanced software, labs & equipment under the expert guidance of Ashoka’s reputed Science faculty. Discussion groups and break-out sessions give students opportunities to apply their learnings to develop & create solutions to challenging real-world problems. To further help students in their academic & career journeys, the programme includes interactive modules where students can explore future pathways in their subjects of interest with leading academicians, counselors & industry leaders.
YSP Computer Science (YSP-CS) is a certified, 5- day, residential programme designed for students in grades 9,10,11 & 12 interested in the field of computer science and its allied disciplines. YSP-CS provides students a deeper and wider exposure to the discipline in line with Ashoka’s multidisciplinary approach to higher education. Taught by a globally renowned & experienced faculty (details below), the programme is designed to inspire, motivate and prepare students for higher studies, whether at the senior secondary school or college level or even for life beyond. Given the foundational nature of computer science today across fields of study and in our daily lives, the programme is equally relevant for students who may pursue other disciplines but seek a better understanding of cutting-edge technologies that are transforming the future. The programme does not require students to have any prior CS experience.
YSP also offers motivated & talented students the option of taking a YSP Advanced (General + Sciences) or YSP Advanced (General+ Computer Science), over a 10-day certified programme on campus. The academic & personal enrichment over the 10-day period covering an interdisciplinary exposure across the liberal arts, CS & sciences disciplines not only prepares students better for higher studies but for life beyond.
Students who take the YSP are better informed & better prepared for higher studies at the senior secondary school & college level, leading to better long-term outcomes.

I loved all the faculty sessions so much! The best thing about all the sessions was that they were interactive despite the webinar format with polls, chat comments and questions. Even the subjects which are not my favorite in school were ten times more interesting here and I really enjoyed them! All the topics were unique and not what we would learn in school or from a quick Google search, which made it even more interesting.
My son enjoyed YSP very much. The sessions were meaningful and engaging, helpfulin becoming a better and more informed individual. The topics were so relevant and diverse that they kept him super excited, which was very heartening to experience. So overall I would give it a 10/10.
YSP experience has given my child greater clarity and conviction regarding the choice of subjects she has taken in school and would further like to pursue in college.
