The Baltimore Science Fair

The 55th Baltimore Science Fair will be held on March 27 & 28, 2010 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. However, they have made one big change in that they have gone electronic. In the past schools received a packet of information from BSF via the mail, or through the Office of Science. This year they have moved all of their information to an electronic format. 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, 2010 and last until March 13, 2010.
