Tinkering Lab – A Place to Foster Curiosity & Science Promotion at IIT Mandi

At the Tinkering Lab, we bridge the gap between theory and wonder by developing creative processes and experiments that demonstrate scientific concepts in beautiful, intuitive ways. Our hands-on approach embodies the philosophy that "Seeing is Believing"—transforming abstract principles into vivid, interactive experiences that ignite curiosity. Whether through DIY projects, immersive demonstrations, or collaborative problem-solving, we aim to demystify science and inspire lifelong learning.
