The North Museum has managed the Science & Engineering Fair in Lancaster County since 2009, and in 2024 Lebanon County students started to participate. This regional science fair inspires thousands of young researchers to create, design, and discover the joys of science and engineering through their projects. As one of six fairs in Pennsylvania affiliated with the world’s largest pre-college competition, the International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF), the NMSEF’s top two students’ projects from the senior division earn a place at the ISEF to compete with 1,700 of their peers from around the world. The annual fair furthers North Museum’s mission and position as a leader in STEM education.
All student registrations are free of charge and open to students in grades 6 through 12 from public, private, charter, online, parochial, and home schools.
