2017 "Science On A Sphere" Student Contest

Post date: Jan 19, 2017 8:33:29 PM

NOAA has just announced a contest for K-12 and college students to design content for NOAA’s Science On a Sphere®!

Students are invited to create new maps, visualizations, and stories that help share National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)'s mission in creative and innovative ways. With public installations around the world at more than 130 institutions, we use SOS to support NOAA’s mission of understanding and predicting changes in climate, weather, oceans, and coasts, sharing that knowledge and information with others, and conserving and managing coastal and marine ecosystems and resources.

Winners will receive a $250 gift certificate to be used on educational products, a certificate from NOAA, and have their work featured at the 2017 Science on a Sphere Users Collaborative Network workshop.

Submissions are due by March 17, 2017.
