Post-primary school students from across the region will be showing off their scientific knowledge at the regional SciFest fair which will be taking place at IT Sligo’s Knocknarea Arena on Wednesday, May 11th, 2016.
The winner of SciFest@ITSligo will be announced on that date and will go on to represent the Institute at the SciFest national final in November.
Awards presented at the national final include opportunities to represent Ireland at two international science fairs; the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) 2017 in Los Angeles, California and the International Environment and Sustainability Project Olympiad (INESPO) 2017 in the Netherlands.
SciFest is an all-inclusive, all-island science initiative which fosters active, collaborative and inquiry-based learning among second level students.
