Virtual Labs, a crucial part of the Education Ministry's National Mission on Education, serves as a digital platform for science and engineering education. With 91 virtual laboratories spanning nine disciplines like Electronics & Communications and Computer Science & Engineering, it offers students and researchers across the country the opportunity to conduct experiments online, bridging the gap between theory and practice.
Key Objectives:
Remote Access to Labs:
Virtual Labs provide students with the opportunity to access simulation-based labs in various Science and Engineering disciplines from anywhere.
Igniting Curiosity:
By encouraging students to conduct experiments remotely, Virtual Labs aim to cultivate curiosity and facilitate the learning of basic and advanced concepts.
Imagine conducting experiments and designing electronic systems without needing a physical lab.

Comprehensive Learning Management:
A complete Learning Management System is integrated into Virtual Labs, offering tools such as web resources, video lectures, animated demonstrations, and self-evaluation options for both students and teachers.
Diverse Areas Covered:
How It Works:
Virtual Labs focus on providing graduate and undergraduate students with the ability to perform required laboratory experiments using only the internet and a standard computer. This approach allows students to practice and understand the science and engineering principles behind their experiments, enabling the sharing of expensive equipment nationwide and making experiments accessible even in remote areas.
Types of Virtual Labs:
Simulation-Based Labs:
Modelled using mathematical equations, these labs offer scalable experiments with results communicated to students over the Internet.
Remote Triggered Labs:
Real-time experiments are conducted remotely, with experiment outcomes communicated back to students online. Time slots are booked for such experiments.
Access Anytime, Anywhere:
All Virtual Labs are accessible through a common website: www.vlab.co.in. A personal computer and broadband connection are all you need to dive into the world of Virtual Labs.
