A group of Vanderbilt students, faculty and staff will share their research and passion for science and technology with middle and high school students at the nation’s largest science fair April 27-29 in Washington, D.C.
The second annual USA Science & Engineering Festival and Book Fair, held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, showcases more than 3,000 hands-on science and engineering activities, more than 100 stage shows, discussions by featured authors, appearances by “science celebrities” and more over the course of three days.
“This expo provides a fantastic opportunity to engage and energize middle and high school students in the process of discovery,” Dennis Hall, vice provost for research and dean of the Graduate School, said. “We are thrilled to be part of an event promoting interest in science, technology, engineering and math and look forward to meeting the nation’s future engineers and scientists.”
