UAH- International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF)

  • 28 Feb 2025
  • University of Alabama in Huntsville

The College of Engineering at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) is pleased to host the 71st Annual North Alabama Regional Science and Engineering Fair (NARSEF). The fair will be held February 28, 2025.

The North Alabama Regional Science and Engineering Fair (NARSEF) provides 6th – 12th grade students from Colbert, Cullman, Fayette, Franklin, Jackson, Lamar, Lauderdale, Lawrence, Limestone, Madison, Marion, Marshall, and Morgan counties the opportunity to showcase their independent or team research and design projects to local experts in the fields of life science, physical science, environmental studies, psychology, and engineering.

Last year, over 75 students participated, and over 63% of the presenters won an award or advanced to the state fair. The grand prize for the senior division (9th – 12th grades) is a trip to the International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). This fair brings together hundreds of science fair winners from all over the world to compete against each other.

The opportunities that NARSEF and their corporate donors have provided have helped to shape the future of hundreds of local students in addition to helping support and build STEM education programs throughout the North Alabama Region.
