Event Details & Abstracts

The Partnerships for Informal Science Education in the Community (PISEC) program is hosting the annual PISEC High School Poster Symposium! We will have over 100 high school students from three different schools here presenting projects they have been working on this year under the guidance of PISEC mentors. Many of the students are from groups that are underserved and underrepresented in STEM and many will be first-generation college students. This poster symposium gives students the chance to engage in authentic science communication practices and talk with experts about their projects, and has the potential to be an impactful experience for students as they explore their interests and opportunities in STEM. The projects span a variety of topics within physics, chemistry, and engineering. Please consider attending to check out the cool projects and chat with the students. Refreshments available in X325!
