The museum portrays the application of science and technology in industry and human welfare. An airplane and a steam engine are displayed in its compound. Inside there are five galleries, each dedicated to a particular aspect of technology.

The mobile science exhibition, a special feature of the museum, tours all over the state throughout the year.
