The Maine State Science Fair (MSSF), presented by MMSA and The Jackson Laboratory, is a celebration of Maine high school STEM innovation. Each year, the Fair unites hundreds of Maine high school students and their teachers and families for a one-day exposition of original student research and engineering projects. Through the Maine State Science Fair, students identify a problem within their local community and use research and engineering to design a solution.

The MSSF is also a competition. Three projects from the MSSF are chosen to represent Maine at the world’s most robust and prestigious science fair— the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). At ISEF, Maine students present their projects alongside 1,700 high school students from around the world. Even more impactful is our scholarship program: in 2022, 10 Maine colleges and universities awarded $777,000 to MSSF participants. The program has leveraged over $4.8 million in scholarships since its inception in 2017.

Sponsors like you make the Maine State Science Fair happen. Your support provides a top-notch experience for these young Maine scientists. By supporting the Fair at one of five sponsorship levels, you will play a key role in encouraging the next generation of scientists to pursue their ambitions in high school and beyond.
