The Baltimore Science Fair

The 58th Baltimore Science Fair will be held on March 23 & 24, 2013 at Towson University in the University Union Building--3rd floor. For students that have been involved with the Fair in the past most of the procedures are the same. They have two divisions, Division I is for students in grade 9 through 12 and Division II is for grade 6 through 8. Each division is further broken into physical science and biological science and those have sub-categories as well. The Grand Prize winners from Division I (high school) will be eligible to compete at the International Science & Engineering Fair to be held in May 12 - 17, 2013 in Phoenix AZ. They have a website (www.baltimoresciencefair.org ) where you can find all the information you need to know about the fair.

They have an online application form and links to Society for Science and the Public (SSP) (the new name for Science Service) for reviewing or downloading the Rules booklet and all International Science & Engineering Fair (ISEF) forms. The online application process will start on January 1, 2013 and last until March 7, 2013.
