The Beaverton Hillsboro STEM Expo (BHSE) is Washington County's largest celebration of science, technology and engineering. Held annually in February or March, the BHSE brings together over 100 students from more than 10 schools in the Beaverton and Hillsboro school districts to compete for scholarships, cash awards, and the grand prize: an all-expense paid trip to the 2026 International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) for one HSD project and three BSD projects. This year, BHSE will be a hybrid event, with judging taking place IN PERSON at the Beaverton District Support Center. ISEF will be held in Phoenix, Arizona, May 10th - 15th.
This year's BHSE event will be Tuesday, March 3. See the Timeline Page for important dates leading up to the science expo.
