***the symposium be held virtually, over Zoom***

"Join us for a day that celebrates your accomplishments in research. Illinois State University (ISU) invites Illinois high school students to showcase their research projects at our annual research symposium. We invite you to share your original work in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM). You've worked hard, overcome challenges, and should be proud of your achievements. Your presentation will give you the opportunity to share your research with an audience of ISU professors, ISU students, and other Illinois high school students.

Taking part in the Symposium will allow you to gain valuable experience in presenting your research to a diverse audience. You will be able to network and gain an appreciation of the work of your peers. Presenting your research is an attractive addition to any résumé, internship or job application, scholarship application, or college/university application.

The Symposium is open to all high school students engaged in research, scholarship, and creative achievement under the direction of a teacher and/or professional mentor. Students may participate as individuals or in groups. There is no cost to participate!"
