Saginaw County Science & Engineering Fair 30

SCSEF30 Awards

All students who display their project receive a ribbon and certificate of achievement. SCSEF Awards fall into four groups: Grand Awards, Category Awards, Special Awards and Advancement Awards.

Grand Awards consist of trophies for all students who receive "First Class" designation. Within each division, Category Awards are presented to the top project in each category. Special Award winners are determined by the organization sponsoring the award, and may consist of a single award or a variety of awards.

The SCSEF provides an opportunity for Advancement Awards. The SCSEF will send the top two Senior Division students to the 2008 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, May 11-16 in Atlanta. The SCSEF will send the top ten Senior Division students to the 2008 Michigan Science and Engineering Fair.

30th Saginaw County Science & Engineering Fair Results

March 14-16, 2008

The Saginaw County Science & Engineering Fair is sponsored by the Community Education Department of the Saginaw Public Schools, in cooperation with the Dow Corning Corporation and local businesses and organizations. Congratulations to all of our students. We had a total of 314 students participating in the 30th SCSEF. The Saginaw County Science & Engineering Fair (SCSEF) is affiliated with the Michigan Science & Engineering Fair (MichSEF) and the Intel International Science & Engineering Fair (Intel ISEF). As an affiliate, Saginaw County can send five students in each of our Junior and Elementary sections to the Discovery Channel Young Scientists Challenge, ten Senior Division students to the MISEF and two Senior Division students to the Intel ISEF. We have four types of awards: Special Awards, Category Awards, Grand Awards and Future Competition Qualifiers. Special Awards come from organizations wishing to reward student research in a particular area of research or using a particular methodology. Category awards are within the student's research category, such as Botany, Chemistry, Engineering, etc. Grand Awards are the recognition of First Class projects. Future Competition Qualifiers are Senior Division students who placed in the top 10 and will represent Saginaw County at the MichSEF, or Senior Division students who placed first or second and will represent Saginaw County at the Intel ISEF. We awarded a total of 190 awards to 122 students. Full Results are here.
