Students

Registration is open to all students in grades 4-12, inclusive, in the Edmonton area.

The registration fee for students is $35.00 per project. Lunch will be provided in the cafeteria. Students can select either a hot dog or a veggie dog, and it will be served with chips, cookies, and juice. The registration fee also includes a Fair T-shirt. To receive one, please indicate your shirt size in registration.

Students will find useful information on the project information pages. Before registering, students should especially read the categories page and types page to see which competition category and project type would best fit their project, as they will need to choose one in registration.

Judges

Judges should have some experience in science, such as undergraduate education in science or equivalent experience.

The Canadian Institutes of Health Research have put out a guide for judging a science fair.

In anticipation of the fair, a copy of the judging form and judging instructions in PDF format has been posted for judges to familiarize themselves with. A more thorough orientation will be given will be given to the judges Saturday morning of the fair.
