The Southern Appalachian Science and Engineering Fair is sponsored by The University of Tennessee to develop an outlet for creative energy and analytical skills in our youth. Students in our Senior Division (grades 9-12) compete for two opportunities to represent the SASEF at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. Senior team projects also compete for an opportunity to attend ISEF. Students in the Junior Division (grades 6-8) compete separately for their own awards. The younger students learn a great deal by being involved in the competition each year. Through their experience with the fair, they gain insight that will prove useful in future endeavors.
Students in Western Tennessee can compete in this Regional Science Fair.
