About SLVSEF

The Salt Lake Valley Science and Engineering Fair (SLVSEF) has been run by the Utah Science Center since January 2005 and is an annual science competition for students in grades 5-12. Participation in science fair stimulates student's interest in science and technology while simultaneously promoting the development of communication, decision making, evaluation of alternative solutions, and critical thinking. SLVSEF is pleased to showcase the inquisitive natures and scientific discoveries of some of the best and brightest young minds from the Salt Lake, Tooele, Granite, Park City and Murray School Districts.

SLVSEF is organized by the Utah Science Center in partnership with the University of Utah.

The Utah Science Center emphasized creative and active exploration of the worlds of science and technology. Targeted at adults, and young people who want to be treated like adults, the Utah Science Center will create a culture and environment for exploring the factors and phenomena that affect our lives and shape our future. Visitors to the Utah Science Canter will question, learn and invent through personal, hands-on experimentation and exploration. The goal is to facilitate personal Eureka! Moments- personal scientific revelations.

The Utah Science Center will deliver informal science experiences and education to a large, broad, and diverse audience.
