What is the Science Fair?
|
The Science Fair is Québec's major science and technology competition. Each year, more than 15,000 young people under the age of 20 exhibit a science project they have developed during the school year before an audience.
Recognized in the education community, the Science Fair gives young people a chance to get involved in science and technology. After participating, exhibitors talk about their feeling of accomplishment: some develop their analytical thinking and discover they have an interest in a particular profession; others fine-tune their communication skills; all of them enrich their knowledge in science.
The Science Fair is also a memorable life experience for many former exhibitors. What are you waiting for? Embark on the adventure?
