Ritchey Science & Engineering Fair Virtual Workshop

The Ritchey Science & Engineering Fair (SEF) documents included on this page are a combination of handouts and video presentations created by the faculty at the Weber State University plus documents from the Regeneron International Science & Engineering Fair (ISEF), the Society for Science, and Weber State University’s supporting colleges.

Presentations

These videos of presentations that are normally conducted by faculty at the physical fall and winter workshops were recorded for the Ritchey SEF 2021 fair, but the information is still valid for this years fair.
