Youth Science Canada Online STEM Fair

Introducing Youth Science Canada Online (YSC) STEM Fair, a showcase for science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) projects that reflect the curiosity and creativity of Canadian youth. YSC Online STEM Fair is open to any student in Canada from grades 7 to 12 (secondary 1 to Cégep in Quebec), looking to showcase their ideas and discoveries in a time when innovation is more needed and perhaps more valued than ever.

Any PEI student in grades 7 to 12 can now register their project in the inaugural YSC Online STEM Fair at https://makeprojects.com/ysc. Projects will be judged and virtual ribbons presented for the best in PEI and best in Canada projects. Students looking for assistance can check the Project Entry Guide at https://youthscience.ca/sites/default/files/project_entry_guide-en.pdf.

The registration period ends at 11:59 pm PDT on May 18.  The Youth Science Canada Online STEM Fair goes public on May 19.
