Showcasing the Next Generation of Researchers and Innovators
The Waterloo-Wellington Science & Engineering Fair is an annual event that brings together the best of young scientific minds in our community.
During this event, projects are placed into three divisions based on the grades of the participants: Junior (Gr. 7-8), Intermediate (Gr. 9-10) or Senior (Gr. 11-12). Each division is separated into three categories: Engineering, Life Sciences or Physical & Mathematical Sciences.
Students and projects are judged according to a national standard that includes the scientific method, creativity, organization, research, background knowledge, visual impact and a written summary of the project. Awards and scholarships are given to students who have excelled in these criteria.

Promoting Excellence in
STEM Among Our Youth
The WWSEF isn’t just a place for students to showcase their scientific and academic prowess – it’s also an excellent experience for them to grow as scientists and researchers.
Winners at our regional fair go on to the Canada-Wide Science Fair.
High school students who have attended a Canada-Wide Science Fair can apply for Team Canada to attend the
International Science and Engineering Fair the next year.
Many of our WWSEF alumni have gone on to become leaders and innovators in our society, making a true and lasting impact in our world.
