The YSC Virtual Regional STEM Fair welcomes projects by any grade 7-12/Cégep student in Canada from a community that does not have a regional STEM fair, or where their regional STEM fair is not being held this year.

The event is completely virtual. All judging will be online using Microsoft Teams.

The only awards are the Sanofi Biogenius Canada Award and participation in the Canada-Wide Science Fair (CWSF) 2024.

The Sanofi Biogenius Canada Award is presented to an outstanding project related to biotechnology – the use of biological systems to produce goods and services – or life sciences.

The Canada-Wide Science Fair (CWSF) is the country’s largest annual youth science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) event, bringing together top young scientists and their projects, selected by YSC’s national network of regional STEM fairs in every province and territory.

Apart from the project judging and awards, the CWSF is its own unique experience. The event brings together youth from the most remote regions of the country and their urban counterparts. Sightseeing tours, special events, dances – each Host Committee goes out of its way to showcase the cultural, natural and human qualities of their part of the country.

Two days of school and public viewing welcome visitors who engage with the finalists about their projects and also experience STEM Expo – interactive and inspiring exhibits featuring ideas and opportunities in STEM.

CWSF 2024 will be, from May 25 to June 1, 2024, hosted in Ottawa, Ontario at Carleton University.
