SCREENING FORMS NOW AVAILABLE!!! Download either County or City The science fair is a tremendous opportunity for learning... and not just about science! Students use all the skills they have learned to put together a project. Writing, speaking, logic, and critical thinking all play roles in the completion of a project. Frequently, former exhibitors express their appreciation for the Fair because "it teaches me about myself and what I can do. There are no limitiations!" A Science Fair project is not about building a volcano or making a robot. It's about experimentation, creativity and discovery. Students pull from many disciplines to complete a project. In the end, they not only get a sense of pride in their work, but can earn awards, scholarships and trips. And, in the ever competitive world of college applications, it is a great plus, because it proves that the student can complete long term goal. Another great opportunity for students with the GSDSEF is the Student Advisory Board. It is the honor society of the Fair. Students are proud to give back to the organization that provided wonderful opportunities to them with their community service. Find out how to get your student involved! Can my student submit a project for screening if it isn't required by their class/school? YES! The project must meet the guidelines of the Fair to be considered for review. Requirement by the teacher or a school fair is not required to request consideration for entrance to the Greater San Diego Science and Engineering Fair. You can find all the necessary forms right here! If you have any questions or concerns, just ask! We are here to help and in some cases, point your students in the direction to get project help. Screening forms are now available! Download either County or City School form. The judging standards of the International Science and Engineering Fair serve as guidelines for the GSDSEF.
