Sponsors of the ND Southeast Regional Science and Engineering Fair

SERSEF Sponsors: Making the North Dakota SERSEF Possible

Every year, the generous contributions of SERSEF's sponsors provide the resources needed to hold the Southeast Regional Science and Engineering Fair! SERSEF's sponsors support students interested in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics and provide the opportunity for these students to present their research and be recognized for their achievements. With the immense support of SERSEF's sponsors, the Southeast Regional Science and Engineering Fair has awarded thousands of dollars to STEM students for their exciting and impactful research! In addition, every student who presents at SERSEF receives a t-shirt to commemorate their achievement because of the generosity of SERSEF's sponsors. Sponsors contribute to SERSEF in a variety of ways, with the most common levels of sponsorship detailed below.
