The fair, in which middle school and high school students from across Florida compete, will be held at the RP Funding Center in Lakeland. Judging takes place April 3 from roughly 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than 800 students representing all districts in Florida will be in Lakeland to compete for more than $1.2 million in awards, scholarships, internships, and prizes, Central Florida Tourism and Sports Marketing said in a news release. These students are the top winners in 37 regional Florida science fairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Judges must have one of the following qualifications: related professional experience beyond receiving their bachelor’s or master’s degree, or have a Ph.D., M.D., or equivalent (D.O., Ed.D., D.D.S., D.V.M., etc.); or a current graduate student with research experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Judges must agree to the ethics statement posted on the website and must review the Policies and Procedures for Judging at the SSEF of Florida.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Judges may include university faculty and scientists, industrial engineers and scientists, representatives of private and federal research centers and agencies, medical researchers, post-doctoral fellows, and graduate students. SSEF of Florida will not reimburse travel expenses but does provide parking and breakfast, breaks, and lunch between judging rounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
