The NC Science Festival provides opportunities for individual scientists and researchers to participate in Festival events. Each year, over 3,500 STEM professionals visit classrooms, show off their research at an expo, speak at a science cafe, and so much more. If you are interested in visiting a middle school classroom in North Carolina to lead hands-on activities and inspire the next generation of creative thinkers and problem solvers, check out our SciMatch for Middle School program!
