Upcoming Shows

Nearly 300 middle and high school students from the Greater New Orleans area will display the results of their scientific inquiry at the 63rd Annual Greater New Orleans Science and Engineering Fair (GNOSEF), February 18 - 21 at the Tulane University Lavin-Bernick Center. Student exhibits will be on display to the public on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons and Thursday morning. Additionally, student-led tours of the Loyola and Tulane University campuses will be available for GNOSEF participants. Admission to public viewing days is free and open to the community. The Fair is open to any student from Orleans, Jefferson, Plaquemines and St. Bernard parishes nominated by their middle or high school. Entrants fall into two divisions: Junior Division, comprised of middle school students (grades 6-8) and Senior Division, comprised of high school students (grades 9-12). More than $65,000 in cash/non-cash awards, prizes, grants and scholarships will be awarded to GNOSEF 2019 winners/teachers and schools, including a trip for four students and two teachers to the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (Intel ISEF) to be held May 12-17, 2019 in Phoenix, AZ which draws over 1,600 students from 70 countries with more than $4 million in cash awards and prizes. Sixty category winners at the GNOSEF in New Orleans are also eligible to compete for state honors at the Louisiana Science and Engineering Fair (LSEF) held at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, March 18-20, 2019, with those winners also going on to the Intel ISEF.
