The Metro Richmond STEM Fair (MRSF) provides our region’s young scientists with a platform to share research that they have diligently and passionately developed. Through the MRSF, students are afforded the opportunity to present their research to their peers, as well as to educational, industry, scientific and community leaders. The MRSF is a two-level juried, competitive fair and serves as Central Virginia’s regional qualifying event for the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (Intel ISEF) and the Broadcom MASTERS Competition. https://www.mymsic.org/stemfair
