SciFest’s main object is: To promote Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education through the provision of a forum for students at local/regional/national level to present and display their scientific investigations.

The SciFest programme consists of a series of one-day STEM fairs for second-level students. SciFest was set up to encourage an interest in, and love of, the STEM subjects. It is designed to be as inclusive and accessible as possible. Established in 2006 SciFest is now implemented at four distinct levels.

Level 1. Local – SciFest@School

Level 2. Regional – SciFest@College

Level 3. SciFest National Final

Level 4. SciFest International
