Georgia Junior Science & Humanities Symposium

The Georgia Junior Science & Humanities Symposium serves to support, promote, and publicly recognize our state’s brightest STEM students and their outstanding achievement in scientific research by providing participants with the unique opportunity to present their research to a panel of highly qualified judges in the format of an academic, scientific conference.
