IX Science Fair of UNESC
The IX Science Fair of UNESC is an annual event aimed at encouraging scientific production in schools, providing an opportunity to present research through projects and experiments within the university environment. As part of the XIV Science and Technology Week, our event seeks to create a space where students can not only produce and disseminate their research but also visit and learn from various activities on display. Activities such as games, toys, and experimental demonstrations will be presented to spark creativity in the various fields of Science represented by the Schools of Criciúma and the region through their students from Elementary and High School and teachers. This year, in addition to addressing sciences in general, as in previous editions, we are also encouraging the exhibition of works related to the theme "International Year of Basic Sciences for Sustainable Development."
Objectives:
- Promote the development of creativity and inventive and investigative skills in students to awaken vocations and encourage research in schools;
- Stimulate the planning and execution of projects by students and teachers from state, municipal, and private education networks, encouraging the development of youth scientific production;
- Disseminate the educational scientific-technological advancements achieved by Schools regarding investigative skills and attitudes;
- Value the qualitative aspects of scientific production in schools, aiming for its integration with the university environment.
- Strengthen the ties between the University, the School, and the community through the scientific production of students from Criciúma.
Program
As part of the XIV Science and Technology Week, the fair will take place on October 25, 2023.
