STEM Lighthouse
Awards
Recognising the teachers, mentors, and institutions who quietly illuminate the path for India's next generation of scientists, engineers, and innovators.
The quiet ones who
light the way.
Behind every young scientist who changes the world, there is a teacher, mentor, or institution that gave them the courage to try. The STEM Lighthouse Awards exist to recognise those people.
Every year, we celebrate the educators and organisations across India who go beyond the curriculum — who invest their time, energy, and passion into creating the next generation of STEM leaders.
This is our way of shining a light on the lighthouse keepers — the ones who guide others through the fog.
