    The parent body under Ministry of Culture, Govt of India, under whose umbrella, total 28 numbers of National, Regional, Sub regional and District Science Centres are there. NCSM was set up in the year 1978 and is the pioneer of the concept of Science Museum, Science Centre and obviously Mobile Science Exhibition, a unique traveling exhibition, which takes the fervour of science to the pupils and general public who are out of the ambit of Science Museum/Centres. NCSM also build up and handed over a number of Science Centres to different states of India and also outside India. Currently NCSM is conducting M.Tech course and offering degree in Science Communication in collaboration with BITS, Pilani.
