The Interdisciplinary Science Competitions gathers high school students for a weekend of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM)-focused learning via the University of Alberta. Competition format is based on student performance and innovation in three laboratory components (Organic Chemistry, Molecular Biology, Computer Science), an integrated problem solving scenario, and several workshops with prizes. Throughout the weekend, students will also have the opportunity to attend a keynote speech and explore STEM research and development at the post-secondary level.
