All 8th grade students in the following counties: Butler, Cass, Fillmore, Gage, Jefferson, Johnson, Lancaster, Nemaha, Otoe, Pawnee, Polk, Richardson, Saline, Saunders, Seward, Thayer and York are invited to participate in UNMC's Regional Health/Science Meet sponsored by:
Southeast Nebraska Area Health Education Center:
The University of Nebraska Medical Center's Health/Science Meet believes this opportunity is extremely beneficial for students because it allows them to have an exploratory experience that many do not have until they reach college.
Our objective is to involve students in detailed projects of a scientific nature and to inspire their career aspirations especially in the areas of health science. To participate in this Health/Science Meet, students are required to complete a science project, write a short description or abstract of their project, maintain a project logbook, and develop a poster board display presentation of their project. Judges will evaluate and rank science projects at the Meet.
Students with the top projects will be invited to attend the UNMC Science Meet, June 5-7, 2008 on the UNMC campus in Omaha. The State Science Meet provides students with the opportunity to participate in hands-on activities involving education, research, and science. Those who attend the State Meet will have a host of activities to get them excited about science. Lodging and meals will be provided by UNMC.
