Savannah River Regional
Science and Engineering Fair
Savannah River Nuclear Solutions, LLC, in partnership with the University of South Carolina Aiken (USCA) and the Ruth Patrick Science Education Center, proudly sponsors the Savannah River Regional Science and Engineering Fair. The 2012 event will take place at USCA on Saturday, March 10.
The Savannah River Regional Science and Engineering Fair gave young people from the area the opportunity to explore the world of science and technology and develop their scientific investigation skills and knowledge by planning, constructing and exhibiting their own "hands-on" science projects. First place winning projects by 4th through 12th graders from school science fairs were invited to enter.
Projects were judged for scientific reasoning, creative ability, thoroughness, technical skill and clarity. As in the past, judging was performed by scientific, engineering and other technical professionals from SRS, USCA and the surrounding community. The science fair promotes students' interest by providing public recognition of outstanding work and by giving students the opportunity to interact with community scientists. Lots of great prizes were given during the awards ceremony.
